Who Wins
- You win pre-6 trades due to superior range and Leona's engage potential, but Tristana's W reset potential makes extended fights dangerous.
- Post-6 you maintain advantage through range and zone control, though Tristana's all-in potential with R increases significantly.
Synergy & Trading
- Use auto-Q-auto combos when Leona lands E, positioning behind minions to avoid Milio Q while maximizing headshot procs.
- Focus on short trades using your range advantage, then back off before Tristana can W forward for extended trades.
Wave Control/Roaming
- Push early waves to establish range advantage and enable Leona roams, but avoid overextending past river without vision.
- Maintain slow pushes when ahead to deny Tristana farm and create dive opportunities with Leona.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't step too far forward for poke when Tristana has W available, as her W-E-R combo can burst you down quickly.
- Avoid using E aggressively for trades when Milio has W available, as his cleanse negates your escape tool.
