Will It Jungle? ft. Tristana

What do you mean "fighting for it?" That's it's an optimal jungle pick just like Lee Sin, Olaf, Gragas, J4, Amumu, Zac, Kha'zix, etc.? That anyone with decent Tristana and jungle skills should be able to climb in ranked with it if they practice it enough? That you shouldn't be flamed for it in normals?

I can tell you right now Tristana is not an optimal type of champion for jungling in Solo Queue, let alone competetive. And of course you shouldn't get flamed for playing weird/off-meta stuff in normal games.

As for whether you can climb with it if you're better at Tristana than other jungler's? I'm not sure, but I feel like the handicap you're setting for yourself is probably not worth it unless you're literally a Tristana+jungle one-trick (you know, several times as many games on Tristana jungle in ranked as all other champions/roles combined).

Go play bots.

Too late.

Well, assassins rework just means squishy champions, especially marskmen, in general might be more fun, not limited to Tristana. ;P

That's how I think of all the thumbnails for every single /all chat video with those horrendous faces on them. I cannot stand looking at them.

Surprisingly she can. Her champ passive with her Q CC, W shield, and E slow AND damage gives her a somewhat easy jungle clear. She even has strong gank potential due to her Q, E, and R.

There are a number of problems with your rune and mastery setup... First of all, no armor yellows on a questionable jungle clear champion with a weak early game is simply sheer stupidity. Enemy team have lee sin, kha'zix, olaf, kindred, rengar, J4, or really just any AD jungler who would already want to invade a weak early off-jungler like Trist? Say hello to feeding the whole game.

Second of all, when world's level players don't (always) take strength of the ages on even shorter range/scrappier Marksman jungler's like Graves or Kindred, you know it's sub optimal on Tristana, one of the safest/most damage reliant ADC's in the game. Going all the way into resolve, plus missing out on a great damage keystone like fervor, Warlord's or even Thuderlord's (Tristana like Graves can be fairly bursty) just cuts your dps/burst damage way too much when that's really all you bring to your team; plus you really need help in early ganks, skirmishes and duels, not mid-game (after Strength is farmed up decently) when you won't be trying to tank/initiate/flank for your team anyways.

I'm not sure that Tryndamere masteries directly transfer over to Tristana just because they're both AD/Basic Attack Steroid champions... the range, mobility, burst and sustain patterns of both champions are significantly different, as well as what items they buy and when their power spikes/troughs are, not to mention Tryndamere's unkillability ult.

The whole splash is different. They must have used an early version of it lying around in the Riot computers or something.

Yes. It only works better than laining if you can get lots kills though. (Urgot Likes to win early as he does NOT scale into late game)

You know it's not all of Riot. Riot has so many employees you are unaware of it's insane to think about.Considering the fact that they're a big company it shouldn't be a surprise that they're separated into divisions like any other company. Even grocery stores aren't all sales clerks. This is a public relations kind of department. They're appealing to the people who play the game to enjoy the game. Sometimes messing around is fun and that's the purpose of league on an average level: to have fun. They do have a big competitive scene but 95% of the population wastes their time raging at dreams because they believe they're hidden Fakers held back by bad teams.They're just showing that there's more to love than winning or doing well. And there's been plenty of these videos beforehand, so if they're so stupid why did you click on one?Hope that clears up any misplaced concerns you have. :D

They have done though, it was the very first one. (Check out episode 34 in All chat, it has an image of thresh for a cover. Link if you want it https://youtu.be/SKcr2Bbv8xs?list=PLOYk3oZd8EOqd9WbzSIquduxJQauQXhh6&t=277 )
