Tristana
the Yordle Gunner
WITH
- Her massive gun allows Tristana to fire on targets at a great distance. Utilize this to prevent your enemies from ever laying a hand on you.
- Use Rocket Jump after you have stacked up your Explosive Charge on an enemy to finish them off with a burst of damage.
- Use Rapid Fire to help stack up your Explosive Charge on enemy champions.
VERSUS
- If you see Tristana activate Rapid Fire in a fight, stun her and try to back off until the spell dissipates.
- Stand away from your creeps in a lane to take less collateral damage from Explosive Charge.

While many other yordles channel their energy into discovery, invention, or just plain mischief-making, Tristana was always inspired by the adventures of great warriors. She had heard much about Runeterra, its factions, and its wars, and believed her kind could become worthy of legend too. Setting foot in the world for the first time, she took up her trusty cannon Boomer, and now leaps into battle with steadfast courage and optimism.

We will max E
first, as it helps us to push and trade against the enemy botlane.
In case we want to freeze lane at level 1, we can skill Q
at that level, and then level up E
, with one point put in W
in any case..
After it, we will do the same with the Q
, as the W
is for utility and just reduces its cooldown (and Q
enables us to deal more damage). Of course, we will level up R
whenever it’s posible.
Will make us push slower (without E’s
passive) and let us escape a potential engage with W
.

Tristana
, like many AD Carries, can deal more damage if built with Critical Strike based items.
For Lane Phase, the usual start is Doran Blade
(if we expect not to suffer a lot in Lane, and be able to trade) or Doran Shield
(if we are against a bad matchup, so we can regen and stay in Lane) and a Potion
.
In case of early back, we can pick up a Cull
(that will delay our Power Spikes, but will be worth later), a Doran Blade
(will delay as well other items, but will give us more survivability in Early Game) or Boots
(to move faster, make us able to sidestep some skills from the enemies).
In a normal game, we will try to back when we reach 1300 gold (to buy a B.F Sword
) or 1600 gold (adding Boots
to the B.F Sword
).
From there, we will try to finish the Infinity Edge
first (it is a nice Power Spike, despite the low Critical Chance we will have at the point we buy it), but in case of early back, we can finish Boots
, or change to a Statikk Shiv
, leaving the B.F. Sword
and completing the Infinity Edge
later.
The boots we will buy will depend on the game. If we need to deal as much damage as possible, Berserker’s Greaves
are our choice. If surviving matters, Ninja Tabi
(against more than 1 AD threat, or enemy Hypercarry) or Mercury’s Treads
(if we may have to deal with a lot of hard CC) may suit our decision.
From this point, we will complete Infinity Edge
, Statikk Shiv
, and purchase Rapid Firecannon
as a third item.
This should be about 25-30 minutes in the game, and we will need to evaluate what do we need in the match. Against two or more Tanks, Lord Dominik’s Regards
are a need (as a fourth, or last item).
And for the pending ítem, Lifesteal or Survivability are a necessity. Bloodthirster
is the standard option. Blade of the Ruined King
is the best against enemies that stack a lot of health. Mercurial Scimitar
provides us with a Cleanse, so we can fix an error. Guardian Angel
can also be an option but will leave us unprotected when it is activated.

Once she has 3 items (usually the 3 that give Critical Strike), she can start to melt the enemy team. Tanks might be though at this point, but will be no problem, with Armor Penetration or Percentage Health bonus damage, which are built later. With some protection from the team, and some frontlane to make space for you to hit, you can repositionate yourself with Rocket Jump and still run away with Buster Shot
![Buster Shot Buster Shot](/sites/all/modules/zone/modules/zone_guide/games/league-of-legends/2/data/img/abilities/TristanaR.png)
In Late Game, is nearly the same idea, but you have more damage (both to frontlane and backlane) and some protection (Quicksilver Sash

As long as you can deal some damage and get some protection from your team, Team Fights will be an easy option. Defending and destroying towers is also a good idea, with Statik Shiv
