Synergy & Trading

  • Land Q then immediately E-R combo while Tristana follows up with W-E-auto-Q burst.
  • When hook misses, use W to zone and threaten another hook attempt while Tristana farms safely.

Wave Control/Roaming

  • Roam after successful recalls or when enemies are low, focusing on mid lane ganks or jungle invades.
  • Time roams with cannon waves so Tristana can safely farm.

Mistakes to Avoid

  • Don't hook when Janna has Q available and good positioning to interrupt your combo.
  • Missing hook in this matchup gives them 20 seconds of free farming and potential counter-engage.
