Tristana Bot guide

Tristana adc is a range-scaling burst carry built around Draw a Bead (passive), which grows her Attack Range every level. Her combo runs Rocket Jump (W) onto a target, Explosive Charge (E) planted as a bomb, and Buster Shot (R) to knock the target back — doubling the bomb's detonation radius if it's still carrying the charge.

The build

Rune page: Lethal Tempo, Triumph, Legend: Alacrity, and Cut Down (Precision), with Triple Tonic and Cash Back (Inspiration). Summoners: Flash and Barrier. Skill order opens with Explosive Charge (E), takes an early point in Rocket Jump (W), then maxes Explosive Charge (E) first with Rapid Fire (Q) second and Rocket Jump (W) last. Starter: Doran's Bow and two Health Potions, into Berserker's Greaves. Core build: Hexoptics C44, Infinity Edge, and Navori Flickerblade, with The Collector, Lord Dominik's Regards, and a rebuilt B. F. Sword as later options.

Ability mechanics

Rapid Fire (Q) raises her Attack Speed for a short time. Rocket Jump (W) fires her to a distant location, dealing damage and slowing units where she lands. Explosive Charge (E) can be activated to plant a bomb on a target that explodes after a short duration, and any kill near a detonation bursts shrapnel into nearby enemies. Buster Shot (R) fires a cannonball that deals magic damage and knocks the target back, doubling the Explosive Charge (E) detonation radius if that target is carrying the bomb.

Matchups

Hardest matchups by win rate: Jinx, Lucian, Senna, Caitlyn, and Jhin. Best matchups: Ezreal, Kai'Sa, and Ashe.
