Playing as Tristana

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Bomb, then Rapid Fire

    Plant Explosive Charge (E), then activate Rapid Fire (Q): the attack speed helps you land the 4 hits that make it explode right away, at full power.

  2. Keep them at a distance

    Hit from range and back off as soon as they come close: Draw a Bead (passive) increases your attack range with each level.

  3. Chain your jumps

    Chain your jumps in teamfights: Rocket Jump (W) resets right away on a champion takedown, or when Explosive Charge (E) explodes at max stacks on a champion.

  4. Knock back the assassin with your ult

    Save Buster Shot (R) for the assassin who jumps on you: the cannonball knocks back your target and nearby enemies, and stuns them.

Playing against Xayah

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Stay out of her feathers' path

    Don't stand between Xayah and her feathers on the ground: Bladecaller (E) pulls them back to her, and 3 feathers passing through you root you.

  2. Engage when the ground is clear

    If you can engage, go in when she has no feathers on the ground: without them, Bladecaller (E) can't root you.

  3. Wait for her to land

    During Featherstorm (R), hold your spells: she's untargetable for 1.5 seconds, then lands, leaving a line of feathers.
