Should Tristana be nerfed?

I know she's an Assassin, and she does a glorious job of that, but I feel she does too well at that job. As well as being the most Turret-destructive Champ in the game, she has the power to absolutely delete Champs with almost no counterplay when building straight AD. I've just played a few games as her and noticed how damn great she is at bringing back games from the brink of defeat, simply because of her abilities with item 3142 and item 3087. I also managed to get my Mastery Tier 6 as her due to those games, but that's not the point here. Even with maxing her E first before her Q, she still manages to deal enough damage early game with item 1036 with her Passive's poking power to force most champs back to Turret, and during late game she can destroy powerhouses like Yasuo and Diana with almost no problem (when played smartly). I just wanted to see your thoughts on this. I know I don't want her nerfed, being she's my Main, but even I think it's ridiculous how fast she can destroy her opponents and objectives.

everyone always maxes E before Q on Trist. she isn't OP at all, her laning phase isn't great. Her late game, she should be a monster.

No I get that, I really do. She has a right to be a monster. I love her as a monster. And she's not really OP early game, but when played right she's outrageously powerful late-game. Not brokenly powerful, but still outrageous. I guess I should've been clearer though. I feel as though she scales too well with her Bonus AD to provide much counterplay against. Probably her Attack Speed too, due to her ability with Statikk Shiv, but I wouldn't want to dig into that pail of bugs.

that's how ADCs work, they scale extremely well with AD and attack speed...

She was created with the express intent of being a late-game hyper carry.

Also, her ADC global win rate is 47.2%. If anything, she needs to be BUFFED.
