Tristana needs a lil help
I don't think she is in a terrible spot, but the current meta is not favorable to her. She showed up yesterday in the LCS and the casters thought it was some kind of joke.
Here are my thoughts. I like her W again. The fact that you can max her W and get a reset off of her E is pretty neat. At low levels that's some decent damage. This harkens back to the good old days when it was recommended to max her W first. The problem with this is that this is very aggressive play and she is easily baited into poor positioning. I don't know that we will ever see LCS play utilizing it at least not on AD Tristana.
What I am trying to say is, I like her current position much better than pre season 6, so don't disparage.
Her E is very lack luster. The additional damage it provides in AOE is the only noticeable thing about it. The reset on her W is nice, but cannot be procked without significant attack speed increase.
Her Q is on a super long cool down and no longer has an E Q interaction.
Her R lost the auto attack reset.
Things I would like to see:
- Give Tristana the mana when her W resets. She has a lot of trouble harassing and then completing a spell rotation with a reset.
- Put damage on everyone hit by her R. It's not a big radius. If you knock them back they should take damage.
- Put armor penetration on her E like a mini Gang Plank barrel and/or count it as an auto-crit and add the 50% bonus damage from Infinity Edge giving her a decent mid game power spike.
- Reduce her Q cool down by 4 secs.
