Prioritize Skill 3, the key to tower demolition and burst damage, then Skill 1 for Attack Speed.

Tristana Strengths

  • ✓Basic attack range that keeps growing with level
  • ✓Fast tower and objective damage
  • ✓Skill 2 jump resets on kills and assists

Tristana Weaknesses

  • ×Short early range makes lane trades hard
  • ×Skill 3 passive makes precise wave control difficult
  • ×A mid-game damage dip before items come online

Tristana Early Game

Your Skill 3 passive tends to push the wave whether you want it to or not, so keep an eye out for enemy ganks. Your level 2 and 3 all-ins hit hard, though. If the enemy slips up, jump in with Skill 2 and build a lead.

Tristana Mid Game

Use the whole map and split-push to take undefended towers quickly. If you find an isolated enemy, burst them with Skill 3 into Skill 2, then use the jump reset to get back to safety right away.

Tristana Late Game

Thanks to your passive, your attack range grows to one of the longest in the game. Use that range to chip towers and frontliners from a distance where they cannot fight back. In the late game your DPS makes you the team's main damage source.

Tristana Teamfights

In teamfights, melt the closest frontliner first from a safe position. Skill 2's cooldown resets on kills and assists, so reposition with each reset. If an assassin dives you, knock them away with Ult to make space.

⚠️ Common Mistakes

Reckless forward jumps with Skill 2

Jumping forward with Skill 2 for a tempting kill without checking for nearby enemies or remaining CC is dangerous. If it fails, you are isolated in the enemy team and die. Use Skill 2 mainly to reposition or escape, and only jump forward when the kill and the reset are certain. Keep your Lv5 Ult for self-peel and disengage.

Tristana Combos

All-in Combo

Jump in with Skill 2 and attach the bomb from Skill 3. Stack it to max with autos to detonate, then finish with Ult.

Our take

Rapid Fire's Attack Speed rises at ranks 1 and 2, stays the same at rank 3 and drops from 125% to 120% at rank 4. Rocket Jump's cooldown is 2 seconds shorter at every rank. Explosive Charge gains base damage and bonus AD ratio, and its crit scaling goes from 40% to 50%, so the bomb hits harder the more crit she builds.

Our take

Six more base Attack Damage, and both Rocket Jump and Buster Shot pick up bonus AD ratios, so Attack Damage now feeds her abilities.

Explosive Charge’s active reads Critical Rate and Critical Damage. Against that, Rocket Jump costs 3 more seconds of cooldown at rank 4 and slows less, and Attack Damage per level falls from 6 to 5.

Patch 7.1d
Buff

Explosive Charge

  • Explosion damage after a unit kill55/85/115/145 → 65/100/135/170

Our take

The explosion gains damage at every rank, rising from 145 to 170 at rank 4. Since it goes off when the charged unit dies, Tristana clears waves faster and can shove the lane more freely. That shove converts into tower pressure, a roam, or a safe recall, which is where her early tempo comes from. Rank 1 gains 10, so the buff is noticeable well before the ability is maxed.

Tristana

Patch 7.0f
Buff

Rapid Fire

  • Cooldown18/17/16/15s → 17/16/15/14s

Our take

Rapid Fire is where Tristana's damage comes from, and whether it is up decides how a trade goes. Trimming the cooldown from 18/17/16/15s to 17/16/15/14s means she is more likely to have it ready for a second skirmish that follows quickly after the first. It is a small change rather than a dramatic one, but it makes it easier to time an engage against the enemy's own cooldowns.
