r/TryndamereMains

People have been saying Trynd needs a rework for ages due to his old kit

I honestly feel like his: Passive, Q, E and R all fit great with his champ identity and we would be disappointed with those abilities being changed

But his W (IMO) has felt out of place in the recent years due to much more loaded kits / abilities being added into the game

The slow was nice while chasing / getting kited and damage reduction is always welcome but a slow + ghost + E is still barely keeping up with other champions basic kits sometimes due to multiple dashes and multiple hard cc

I think changing his W to a high cd cleanse or cc immunity would help him preserve his 1v1 dive threat as champions with 1 hard cc ability won’t be enough to defend a tower if he is fed but multiple enemies would still be able to shut you down

A CC cleanse would be less OP but with less skill expression and a CC immunity would be more OP but could add to his skill expression of holding this and his R till the last second / enemy overcommitted / ability wasted

Sorry for the long thread but what are your guys thought on this?

Im not a Trynda player, i just had a Trynda last game that kept running into the enemy Jax and never ulting, so im asking, do you have to be low hp to ult or was my Trynda just trolling?

I am not talking about playing against him but playing him. I am an avid trynda player but recently picked up jax and am amazed how easy some things feel for him compared to when you play trynd. Take applying burst damage for example. Way less risky. Auto, auto, leap and then that 3. Ult attack + w = big damage. Then you can walk away and repeat. If they commit you hit E and either walk away or win a long trade. With trynda its risky. If you spin in you have to commit. Walking up and saving spin out just works if you have hob, which makes you kinda weak after lane

They are a little similar so i guess it might be interesting for you

I was only playing swifts and those work a little different ofc but jax with sheen is so strong in short or long trades

The closest thing i can think about damage spikes when i play trynd in lane is hob with 2-3 crits

I know about aa resets but jax aa W resets feels almost magical, so smooth 😚

I must admit i struggle often in top lane with trynd, especially against bruisers that get me low quickly with their abilities while still building some hp

Thats why i play him mostly jungle nowadays with good success (am new to jungle tho and have to practice routes and all that)

Your thoughts? Give him a try. I use LT but grasp is popular too

Overall i feel like jax is in most situations a better version of trynd. However trynds spin is just better than jax q (no target needed, aoe, can lower cd with crits). But other than that jax feels currently like a much safer option to me despite the fact i have easily 10x more practice with trynd

I have a question about runes that can be taken on tryndamere.
I see Grasp is an rune that it still is on the recommendation tab, why is that? Even on Lolalitycs, i see its a very good rune that holds the highest winrate.
About HoB, It feels straight-foward, take it on squishies to melt them quick.
Lethal tempo, is it for tanks? I really struggle much with tanks as tryndamere, it feels like after a cloth armor item or tabis, i cant fight a tank even if they're already 0/3

Excuse my ignorance on this post, but i really want to learn the usage i could give to different runes on trynd

I cant really understand it

Big crits

Cant die

Beyblade spins

Making enemies a big chicken

Heals (never recall)

All that by a beautiful half naked man (no homer)

Opinion???

I feel like I had way better results in mid before the attack speed change on the Hail of Blades rune. I'm just wondering if the changes has nerfed Trynda mid or if I am being a whiny little baby? Levels 1-3 is very important for Tryndamere to get that early snowball for me and I rarely find myself performing in this part of the game anymore. Thank you!

where to find the Quagmire Tryndamere costum skin, right now???

Most games, I will smash the enemy laner, take their tower, maybe the second, go take other lanes towers, get more kills, insanely fed, up 2/3 items on all other players + 4 levels or so. And yet my team struggles to end or do anything. Often times they slow feed the enemy adc to the point that they do the same damage I do except at range, enter mid / late and I become useless. Am I just sucking up too much gold? What can I do to help my team end when I am mega fed on trynd. This is a major leak in my game and I'm not sure how to make it happen. Playing in Emerald 3/4 generally.

I also normally split, this will pull 1/2 characters from the enemy team but my team will consistently just get cooked in a 4v3 / 4v4. Idk if I'm doing somehting wrong or if this is just poor teammates. idkkk

Was fighting quite a few of these players recently.

Not sure what to do. Am I supposed to play aggressive or farm? I can only assume Dr.Mundo falls off because damage outscales tankyness. But I only recently fought a bunch of times and don't know what hes strong at.

For those who have a good amount of experience fighting him, what should I do?
