Are you in a 5-man que in a team comp that is prepared to funnel all gold into you while being able to protect you late game? If not, don't play Rageblade Trist.

you do realise this actually gives tristana a mid game right? whereas before she was good lane phase, then had a 15 minute gap of pure garbage, then became a late game monster... this setup allows her to flow smoother from early to late

You also want to note that not a SINGLE damn person in league of legends history wanted to use a rage blade on Tristana until it was done in LCS. Even then REQUIRED team coordination which is never used in ranking anymore unless premade.

I've lost more games from people trying to mimic LCS games they just been shown. -.-; Hell the match I went into earlier when they were talking rageblade on tris, my teamamte built it first and proceeded to die easy.

Yea, people are going to follow what the pros do and try it out. If someone were to just pull rageblade trist out of thin air, you would flame them for trolling. It takes people like the pros using something for people to accept as viable. Has for your lost games, its probably because people don't understand how to play tristana or any champ they choose to pick up after watching the lcs and not that is actually bad. If you understand how to play her it smooths out her powercurve so she can be useful during the midgame and still continue to be a late game monster later.

It was pretty common in Korea and in high elo NA Solo Queue long before TSM vs. CLG. And it really is just a midgame powerspike item, it doesn't change a whole lot about Tristana's playstyle. Blame your teammates who don't know how to play Tristana, not the build...

Am I autorized to try it in norms where try harding doesn't matter?

TTVSushiDevourerApr 18, 20161 votes

Dude you can build it on Taric if you want in norms haha

Good, because you made it sound like I should get a permission slip to try it. :-/

its not a good build in any way. you saw in the match that late game it was switched out for a rapid fire cannon. I'd rather rush an IE then a rpf than go for rageblade. sure as 1 item rageblade is a complete package. waveclear attack speed and damage. but its just. not that great on ranged champions.

aperson1Apr 19, 20161 votes

The whole point of the item is to be an early/mid game crutch to boost your damage as a cheap replacement for IE. He sold it not because he made a mistake in buying it, but because it's worthless late game when you have no time to stack it. You can think of it like the old Haunting Guise, if you were around back then.

i wasnt around for that but. it needs coordination. I mean in a 2v2 lane on tristana its probably not the way to go but in the pro meta people switch lanes and focus on getting turrets. you don't rarely see a 2v2 fight. they usually wait for ganks before going for a fight and even then if you don't have it stacked your screwed.
