The best Runes for Tristana are 9x Mark of Attack Damage, 9x Seal of Armor, 9x Glyph of Magic Resist, and 3x Quintessence of Life Steal. The AD and Life Steal will help Tristana trade and make surviving all-ins a bit easier. The Armor will help to block incoming autos and attack damage, while the Magic Resist will help vs AP champions and poke.

Masteries

As Tristana is an ADC, she will be putting 21 points into the offensive tree and 9 points into the defensive tree. She will take 21 points in offence to increase her damage output and make it easier for her to last hit minions. Taking defensive masteries is good too, as it will make her a little more tanky when she goes in.

Changes For Classic

  • Explosive Shot is a DoT ability

Overview

Our experts are currently testing LoL Classic builds for Tristana on the PBE.

Check back often as we make updates based on PBE changes and as the Classic meta develops!

As Tristana, you should look to play safe for the first few levels and then look to play aggressively with your W and E. Wait until the enemy uses an ability and then jump on them, as this is the safest time to play aggressively. You will want to do this over and over again during the laning phase to gain a significant lead.

In the later parts of the game, look to group with your team and make plays around the map. Tristana excels in team fights with her W and Ultimate, which can knock back and kill enemies. Make sure you avoid jumping forward if you’re going to get collapsed on by the enemy team.
