In game - a toxic splitpush bot that literally never leaves his lane no matter what, isolating himself from the actual battle like a pussy

The irony in tryn's kit and the winnning condition of this game.

Hey thats my proxy sion build lol

uses the same damn principle

but uses passive and ult to chunk down turrets

oh and death timer starts when passive kicks in, that + death time reduction quints means you have almost no downtime lol

crippler38Dec 22, 20162 votes

what's the build? ton of lifesteal so you stay alive?

SpoofghoulDec 22, 20161 votes

well death reduction quints ofc And attack speed to further boost tower demolishing

and then these are essential item 3006 item 3074 item 3512

you can further build tanky to suit your and or your teams needs like item 3065 item 3068 item 3083 That way if it isn't happening fast enough you can still team fight well enough

generally you will acquire tons of hp through all the wave pushing ^^

The idea is to lane somewhat normal and then go for the zzrot/tiamat and boots first

Then just afk push you can ignore your oppoennt just make sure to push in 2 waves into the turret then ignore your opponent and hammer it You want 2 waves because this allows you to keep tower backdoor armor off until your passive dies, but if you die too late a second option is to simply run pas their turret and keep farming with passive proxy style

The awesome part about this build is in the way you ''cheat'' death, you see once you die your death timer starts and THEN your passive kicks in allowing you to continue pushing waves and killing turrets while your death timer ticks away untill your passive finally dies and your immediately respawn

this is also why you need hydra

you see your passive provides 100% bonus lifesteal and a ton of attack speed, and hydra adds some more and allows you to apply it in aoe, so as long as you keep farming your passive will stay healthy xD

Other option is to force your enemy back too with your passive just hit him untill hes really low so hes a free kill if he tries to shove the wave away from his turret

You take TP and Ghost to apply even more pressure in your lane

And you use your ult to get back as well as to damage turrets shoving in your wave in the process then you tank the turret and ignore your opponent whilst killing turret then when you die turret aggro resets and you use your passive to either kill his arriving minion wave or you attack the turret

with little to no death timer. ghost tp ult and the general movement boost of zzrot allows you to keep shoving the waves with 0 breathing room for your opponent

The trick is to not feed early until you get your zzrot

After that it's endless pushing everytime you die you are worth less and less gold, while you become harder and harder to stop with your increase in health and resistances

Remeber zzrot scales with hp so this works excellent for sion increasing his push power alongside his rising hp bar

If too many people go top just tp bot and start pushing that show 0 respect for your opponents i mean they only give 10 hp right so they aint worth all the hassle Just kill their minions and turrets

Nothing can stop you

AckelopeDec 23, 20161 votes

You actually have to avoid items like item 3074 , item 3087 , or item 3068 because then it's very possible that the AoE dmg might hit a champion, and then you aren't playing 0 dmg Trynd anymore. Just shitloads of single target dmg so you can take turrets and minions real fast, while ignoring nearby champions completely.

OHminusDec 23, 20162 votes

Well yea, but he's describing Proxy Sion, not 0 damage trynd.

AckelopeDec 23, 20161 votes

yeah my bad rip, missed the change of subject back a couple of posts for whatever reason. just not paying attention i guess.

SpoofghoulDec 23, 20162 votes

Yea it's proxy sion

it's kind of similar int he goal of pushing turrets and ignoring your opponents

but not the same,, it's also a safer option as it does still allow you to play frontline for your team if absolutely required at some point

SnowFallDec 22, 20161 votes

The problem is that he would be mostly like Olaf here. Going in battle yolo is Olaf's job.

trynd used to be a team fighter and a scary figure, like yasuo only less a feeder back then... like yasuo and a feeder like yasuo it was master yi

The SoulforgedDec 22, 20163 votes

Trynd has been almost exclusively splitpusher since I started playing this game in season 1. I mean, other than support trynd w max who loves teamfights.

Soraka RulesDec 23, 20161 votes

Trynd was a killer back then whaaaat?

The SoulforgedDec 23, 20162 votes

tryn has always been amazing at splitting, and pretty much only splitting.

yasuo and the rework fiora have actually been well balanced for most of their existence. its only short phases where their itemization became a problem. otherwise theyve received some buffs and some nerfs like any other champion. that should be considered normal in a game where the environment constantly changes.

juggernauts are technically melee carries aswell, and some of them are quite balanced, while some others are undertuned most of the time.

people just bitch about these two champions more than neccessary. whenever theyre actually balanced and relevant, and not weak as fuck, people just lose their shit because theyre not used to playing against these champions when theyre not garbage.

MunchCrunchLunchDec 22, 20169 votes

yasuo and fiora are both not healthy to play against for melee champions

ZedexDec 22, 20167 votes

Darius Jax Irelia Malphite Garen

These characters beg to differ.

MunchCrunchLunchDec 22, 20163 votes

Jax is extremely weak early game and is kiteable. malphite doesn't exactly kill you if you aren't trying to get yourself killed against him. garen isn't really that strong anymore and can't really stick to you for that much. darius however is somewhat not healthy but his counterplay is in team fights. but then again you can beat him in lane if you play it right its not impossible the champion is one dimensional and has little outplay potential meanwhile a good fiora or yasuo has little to no counterplay

ShaolinToiletDec 22, 20165 votes

yeah in lane he does after a while not really tho

TheHurricaneGamrDec 22, 20168 votes

He's one of my more hated champions in this game. Up there with Yasuo and Singed . If I saw him more, I would ban him.

LXIIDec 22, 20163 votes

100% this. Never ban him because nobody plays him really, but as soon as they do I want to die.

CowseedDec 22, 20165 votes

On the contrary. He is a warrior with honor. He does not go to weak opponents weak opponents have to come to him. Never mind the fact that he's 0/4. A true king lets the battle come to him.

Hey, he IS bloodthirsty.

30 minutes into the game, after he fellated every dick on the map like a sissy.

RivuoDec 22, 20163 votes

It's not that riot failed to make him a bloodthirsty champ its just his kit is so good for split pushing. Lets be honest with what has happened in the recent season

(Rylais, mobility creep out the ass, so much shields, disengage champs like janna) do you blame any non-tanky melee champ for wanting to split push instead of team fighting..?

TeCoolMageDec 22, 20163 votes

He's been like that since the dawn of time

It has nothing to do with anything recent

Arcane AzmadiDec 22, 20163 votes

Tryn needs a complete relaunch. His entire kit is horribly outdated and unbelievably toxic, his aesthetic and design is outdated, and he needs more voice. I find it strange that when Riot were making such a big deal out of reworking Sion and Poppy because they were their 2 oldest and most-outdated champions, they didn't include Tryndamere. His ult is just as inhibiting a factor on his design and balance space as Poppy's Diplomatic Immunity was.

Off Meta EvanDec 22, 20163 votes

i disagree, he's not running from the battle, he wants you to nut the fuck up and face him. Like you think he gives a fuck about his teammates? No, he's a stone cold killer why the fuck would he. From a character sense this gameplay style actually makes sense, he's someone who thirsts for battle and will take what is his if you don't kill him for it.

XonraDec 23, 20161 votes

His playstyle is play PvE. The second someone shows up he spins and runs away. As soon as they leave you go back to PvE

Off Meta EvanDec 23, 20161 votes

his playstyle is cheesy AF, you build up fury, go for RNG trades, and then possibly get a kill, fuck up and die, or just spin away cause you got low. I can honestly respect tryndamere as he is now because while he is really goofy and outdated, he has a clear identity as a solo Q champion for people who don't like relaying on their team. Thats why their are so many tryndamere mains in diamond, because he's super cheese, and will pretty much never be competitively viable unless an item comes out that just makes him straight up busted.

Immortal spaxDec 22, 20162 votes

its not his fault, when you have against Cait/Ez+any support its hard to dive the backline, even with 5 second bonus.

Hong Kong RevoltDec 22, 20161 votes

Which is only part of the problem;as a skirmisher, Trynd should be perfectly happy beating on that Maokai, but he has to dive for some reason.

TequilaZombieDec 22, 20161 votes

Because he's extremely squishy and pops like a goddamn baloon whenever someone looks at him wrong. So he basicly has 6-8 effective seconds during a team fight, if he fails to take a carry out in that time, he dies for nothing.

He's also the prime example of a champion that should be able to drain tank the shit out of people, but ever since BTs stopped stacking he has been in a lackluster position. He used to be the guy who'd go in, take the carry out, and out sustain the rest of the enemy team.

warpenguin555Dec 22, 20162 votes

Yet for some reason Riot doesnt bring him up when the topic of "Champions who failed their thematic" appears. In what way ware we supposed to think Tryndamere is this badass, unkillable warrior whos consumed by the rage of Aatrox slaughtering his clan when in game he never fights unless you're in his lane?

TeCoolMageDec 22, 20165 votes

Maybe he... Um... What if... The lane represented the ruins of his clan, and the turrets represented the obstacles he has to overcome to get to Aatrox and have his revenge.

Yes. It's clearly a subtle metaphor you plebians were incapable of comprehending kappa

TequilaZombieDec 22, 20164 votes

"Going to the battle? What am I? A fucking pleb? I'm a fucking KING! If you wanna battle, you drag your ass over to my face and get destroyed by my oversized sword! If you don't, fine. I'll destroy all that you hold dear until you can recognize it anymore, until all there's left around are the ruins of your base, turned into dust and rubble. Your choice. Face me and die like a man, or run and lose all you ever had."

At least that's how I play Tryndamere.

XonraDec 23, 20161 votes

It is more like "Im going to stab your gouse while you arent home. I will seing with the fury of a thousand suns. The second I see you however, I will spin and run away. We shall never meet in battle, but as soon as you leave, I shall be back to stab your house. If you again return , I shall simply run away again."

That is how Tryn is really played.

TequilaZombieDec 23, 20161 votes

What? Running away from a 1v1 as Trynd? You're basicly an unkillable Jax when it comes to duels.

You forgot the part where he runs away whenever anything threatening appears, or that his kit (extremely high movement speed, long-ranged dash, immortality) is extremely potent at running away.

I always call Tryndamere The Inveterate Coward.

I'd say it fits his personality at perfection, aren't all douchebags all smoke and no fire? Bragging about their social status and ready to run behind it as soon as a difficulty presents itself?
