This may be a viable solution for Tristana

Simple. Remove the active on her e. Make the passive on it her actual passive and change the scaling to an AD scaling. Then make her passive her e, so you cant just max her q and have that 90% atk speed and still have the massive range at all times, you gotta chose which you want first. Then give her ult a much much smaller AP ratio and a decent AD ratio (lets say 70%). Then change her w so that instead of being reset on kills and assists, the cooldown is reduced to 1 second. it would retain her strength late game (minus the op instanukage and the stupidity that is AP tristana), but make her earlier game a lot less op. any thoughts?

I like switching the E and passive For everything else though, I've noticed that when a champ gets really strong, Riot likes to change every skill (like what you did), but honestly just the e-p switcharoo would be great.

Tristana wouldn't be an issue if Statikk Shiv->Infinity Edge wasn't such a powerful build path. Hit one of those two items and you deal with Tristana (and by extension, the other right-click ADCs that are currently crowding out the casters).

Think back to 4.9 - Tristana's kit was just the same as it was now (even more powerful, actually), and she was seeing fuck all play because her mid game was actually abuseable.

^ What he said

Tristana will go to the trash when the new items come... The issue wasn't her kit, it was the overall meta-change. Now she's just crap.

You actually just made her stronger in this scenario. Tristanas mid game is her weakest point in the game, because she has no ad scaling. Having her e scale by putting Points into it, she has to be able to get to 703 by putting 5 points in her e. You would be looking at roughly 30 range a point and having caityln range(almost) with three points. She can max her steroid out first because her passive now scales with ad per level. By giving her two different ad ratios while maintaining her range and ad steroid, she is now officially op :D I don't think this would work at all. This Tristana is a hyper carry idea is one that has a solid game the entire time and will deal even more damage thanks to the two new ad ratios.
