With all of these reworks, why hasn't Tryndmere been changed?

I honestly cannot believe that you guys will set here and rework champions like Gangplank, Ashe, Sion, Fiora and tell us champions like Akali are being slated for a changes while Tryndamere is allowed to exist as he is in this game. What exactly does he offer to the game? The way he gets played is the most boring possible thing for everyone in the game - you camp in top lane then just stay there the entire game and effectively remove one of your teammates from being allowed to play the game because if you leave him, he'll get fed off of minions, and if you don't leave him you're stuck in that lane the entire time. There's nothing compelling about the way tryndamere gets played, so why is he continually allowed to exist the way he does?

Like, where is the counterplay to his kit? Hope your team can stack their CCs on specifically him in a teamfight while knowing they have an enemy APC/ADC as well? Kite him when he has both a slow and a dash? Ignore him when he gets insane amounts of free damage?

Dude I've said it before... They need to make a Light Fighter Rework just like the Juggernauts.

Should include: Tryndamere, Kayle, Kassadin, Aatrox, and maybe Olaf.

I mean Kass is more of an assassin but I think he could be reworked towards more of a ap light fighter (kayle)

Give them some interesting stuff XD Idk I'm sure thats a wild and crazy idea but yeah

Tryndamere is the stupidest champion I have ever seen. He should have been reworked a LONG time ago

Oh no, a champions play pattern isnt identical to everyone else in their class! Better rework him so he plays just like everyone else.

It is a champion that can be used for a very specific tactic. He isn't op, he doesn't get played a lot, who is he hurting? Are you actually upset that one out of every 100 games you have to deal with a split push strategy? Really!?

League players are so annoying

Just because you don't like a certain playstyle doesn't mean it has to be changed to suit your likes. Some people like split pushing. Can we stop the whole "Riot rework x, because I don't like x and I find it annoying". There are a hell of a lot of champions I find annoying, but that doesn't mean they deserve to get reworked or nerfed. So what, now all the Tryndamere players who have invested thousands of games on him get their champ changed because you find him annoying and can't deal with him?

Trynda can't do anything except pushing - the moment he goes to teamfight - stun+slow+exhaust+aoe burst dmg = trynda has to ult and spin back...

I rather they got Yorick, Taric, Poppy, and Warwick back into the game then focus on him.

lmfao i say the same thing all the time ... you need tons of CC and tons of burst damage and sustained damage

The reason I don't like trynd is because he effectively makes you stay in top lane the entire game while you're taking a TP to secure dragon (or something). I like to focus on Teleport plays to turn a fight but once that happens youre out of top lane for 5 minutes and already lost two towers. Kinda needs to be changed imo. But hey, its a viable strategy to make your team play a 4v4 game that they will loose without a top-laner.

It is incredibly hard to rework Tryndamere. It was the same problem with Kassadin. What makes the champion iconic is what needs to be changed. It is not an easy job, so probably requires more resources, which could otherwise be spent updating several champions for a greater net benefit.

Sounds like you don't like the playstyle of some specific trynd players. Essentially Nasus, and all melee carries can do the same thing.

I feel as if riot really needs a few easy champs that anyone can play easily for new players to pick up. Katarina, Tryndamere, Annie, ect...

PePsiLemoNN9/11/2015, 4:16:41 PM3 votes

I have an idea !

Give him true damage.

Not every champions needs a rework and IMO Trynda is one of those cases.

I know he might be frustrating sometimes. His crits can be totall BS, yeah.

Riot gave him this kit because they wanted him to do exactly that. Don't try to "fix" something that isn't broken...

lB2kGRlc8y9/12/2015, 2:38:24 AM2 votes

The counterplay to to Trynd is kiting, and there is no easier champion to counter build against. If you're laning against him grab a tabi and he's fucked.
