Tristana

Tristana rapid fire hits hard, but its long cooldown leaves her grounded. So, we’re speeding up the reload so that she can blast into fights more often.

As a marksman that is supposed to take a little bit longer to power up, Tristana was dealing too much damage and pushing very quickly in early phases of games. We nerfed her Attack Damage and Explosive Charge, so she will need more protection from her teammates in the early phase.

We’re making Explosive Charge scaling better with items, so you can feel your fire power increasing as you achieve your late game build.

We want to bring marksmen back in-line after our bigger adjustments in previous patches, which have left some stronger than others. So, we’re amplifying Tristana's traits as a scaling marksman, but we’re also making her an easier target if she’s left to lane alone.

Previous buffs went a little overboard for Tristana, so we’re bringing the cooldown on Rapid Fire back to where it was. We’re also looking to make adjustments to the default controls for Tristana around her Explosive Charge to both improve the feels around the spell and make Tristana more accessible.

This yordle gunner isn’t as good at dealing consistent DPS as we’d like, so we’re increasing the uptime of her Rapid Fire and giving her a feels good buff to Explosive Charge’s cast time so she plays a bit more smoothly.

Tristana has been struggling for a while, and the new keystones haven’t helped her out. To lend this Bandle gunner a hand, we’re boosting her scaling power so she can have an easier time becoming a hyper carry without having to focus so much on snowballing through her lane.

Tristana is underperforming at all ranks against compositions that she should be strong against, so we're reducing her offensive downtime to make her slightly less punishable throughout the game.

We’re amping up Tristana’s burst damage so that she can find better opportunities to go for the big plays.

We’re cautiously buffing Tristana as she’s still not matching up to the rest of the marksman roster.

Giving Tristana a small buff to her mana and (2) Rocket Jump slow to make sure she is rewarded more consistently for jumping in.

Tristana’s abilities feel very lackluster, and her signature Explosive Charge (3) is not living up to its promise of being a huge nuke when fully stacked. We’re amping up all of her explosive powers to help her keep pace with other bot laners.

Tristana added to Wild Rift

The inhabitants of Bandle City are curious by nature, but few are lured by the promise of adventure in Runeterra quite like Tristana. Inspired by tales of epic battles and brave fighters, Tristana knew she was destined for a life of explosive action (often literally). With plenty of firepower in tow thanks to her trusty cannon Boomer, the Yordle Gunner seeks to become the stuff of legends.
