Who Wins
- You lose early levels 1-3 due to Tryndamere's superior auto attack damage and crit potential, forcing you into defensive positioning.
- At level 6, you gain significant outplay potential with R allowing you to kite and deal sustained damage while avoiding his all-in.
How to Trade
- Your optimal trading pattern involves using Q stacks on minions first, then engaging with E-Q combo when he uses abilities on minions or steps too close.
- Always save W for when he commits with E, as the untargetability zone forces him to either disengage or walk around it, giving you free damage windows.
Wave Control
- Focus on slow pushing early waves to build Q stacks safely, then crash and recall to avoid his level 6 all-in timing.
- After first back, you can start freezing near your tower since you outscale him in extended fights with items.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Never fight him when your W is down and he has R available, as you have no escape tools and will die to his sustained damage.
- Avoid trading when you have low Q stacks, as your damage output becomes too low to justify the health trade.
