The State of Tryndamere

Tryndamere is a champion who is supposed to be a early game bully right? Then why does Tryndamere have such a strong late game too? He should be like other early game champions like Renekton Darius and Riven who have strong early to mid games, but fall off late. Tryndamere lacks a bit of counter play because of this. I was just in a ranked game where the opposing tryndamere was so shutdown, his score was 0/8/0. But, later into the game he was able to just destroy everyone criting our faces and melting our tanks. Riot, you should make something that makes tryndamere weaker late game. His jungle is also strong if he goes sated.

Ways that you can do this are:

  • nerfing the overall crit is this kit
  • massively reducing his late game resistances, so his glass cannon build has more downfalls, because the new warlord's bloodlust mastery he has heals way too much.
  • reducing the duration of his ult later in the game, while increasing the cool down
  • reduce his e cool down, but remove the cool down being decreased by one second every time he crits, because late game tryndamere usually has a lot of attackspeed and crit
  • reducing his mobility, he can dash too easily in and out of a team fight
  • a cool thing that can be done is when trynd's fury bar is full, it reduces all healing effects on him besides his q active. this would be a good change.

I'm sure that it might just be that I'm in a lower elo and there is a way you can play against a tryndamere that i just don't know about, but it is really frustrating that a tryndamere that has been shut down hard can still be strong.

If you don't think that tryndamere needs to be nerfed, tell me how to play against a tryndamere tips that mightnot be helpful: -shut him down early (why not? his late game is also strong) -cc him (why not? his ult makes him not die anyway, and he will just dash out once the cc ends)

  • kite (why not? He has a lot of mobility with his e, and his w slows and reduces you damage so you do less dmg to him)

Thanks, Pewwep

Lolwat since when was Trynd an early game bully?

Lucky for you he's extremely weak in the current meta. These champs all very popular and utterly shyt on his face: Darius Trundle Jax Olaf Shen DrMundo

Tryndamere is a duelist and a melee-carry.

Duelists typically excel in 1v1 situations.

Melee carries typically scale extremely well with items.

Even if they are shut down, carries will typically be effective if the game goes long enough as they will catch up item-wise.

If Tryndamere builds pure offensive (AD, attack speed, crit chance), he deserves to deal a large amount of damage.

This is especially true considering how easy he can be to shut down, how easy he is to kite during teamfights, and how little he offers his team aside from damage.

It's because of Zed's balance that Riot will continue to keep Tryndamere at a extremely under powered state.

He is a not a lane bully, he's just awfully designed and allowed to win lane at level 2 with crits.

He needs a rework, when was the last time you saw a Tryndamere not destroying your top laner from min 2 and snowballing into a 1v5 machine?
