Who Wins

  • Pre-6 you win if you land E-W combos but struggle with poke from both enemies.
  • Post-6 you become much stronger with R sustain and AoE damage in extended fights.

Synergy & Trading

  • Lead with E pulls to set up W, then Q for damage and healing while Jhin follows with W root.
  • Use passive souls to sustain through poke and maintain health for all-ins.

Wave Control/Roaming

  • Roam when you have R available and can impact skirmishes, typically after level 6.
  • Best windows are when Tristana uses W aggressively or when you have flash advantage.

Mistakes to Avoid

  • Don't use E without minion cover as it's telegraphed and easy to dodge at max range.
  • Getting poked down below 60% health makes you vulnerable to Tristana W-R burst combos.
