Who Wins
- You win most early trades pre-6 due to Q sustain and W attack speed, but Tryndamere's crit RNG can occasionally turn fights.
- Post-6 you have a significant advantage since your R can lock him down during his R duration and force unfavorable trades.
How to Trade
- Look for extended trades when your W is active and you have Q available for sustain.
- Use E to reduce his damage during all-ins, then follow up with Q-auto-R combo when he's low enough that your R fear will outlast his R.
Wave Control
- Push early waves to establish priority, then look to freeze near your tower when ahead.
- Your sustain allows you to maintain favorable positioning while denying him farm and setting up ganks.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't waste your R when he has his R available unless you can guarantee the kill or force him out of lane.
- Trading your ultimate cooldown for his gives him a massive window to all-in you or take favorable trades.
