Tryndamere Build Guide (Top)

Tryndamere is five seconds of unanswerable math: Bloodlust fuels crits, crits fuel Battle Fury, and Undying Rage means the fight ends when he says it does. Split push until someone makes the mistake of dueling you.

Tryndamere Changes

Patch 26.17

nerfCurrent Patch

Tryndamere is still doing exceptionally well. After calibrating how impactful our changes would be in the first patch, we’re back to put him where he belongs. Somehow, he has even more buffs from back in 2010 that we can revert, so we’re back to make things tougher on him. We’re also doing some unique changes, namely reducing his early resilience to losing lane. The primary nerf, however, is in reducing his top-end crit chance. For those with at least 3 crit items, Tryndamere will still be able to reach 100% crit chance at low health, but in the early and mid game, he won’t crit as often.

Base Stats

  • Base Health Regeneration: 10 → 7.5
  • Health Regeneration Growth: 0.9 → 0.75

Passive - Battle Fury

  • Maximum Critical Strike Chance: 50% → 30%
  • Maximum Critical Strike Chance Reached At: 0% Health → 5% Health

R - Undying Rage

  • Cooldown: 110 / 100 / 90s → 130 / 115 / 100s

Patch 26.16

nerf

Tryndamere has wound up as the single most performant champion in the game, both in top lane and jungle, which means he's up for some substantial nerfs. We want to retain his late game big crit fantasy but he should take longer to get there and be more peelable when he does. As with many of our nerfs, these are reverts of buffs from back when Lux launched in 2010.

Q - Bloodlust

  • Cooldown: 12 / 11 / 10 / 9 / 8 → 14 / 12.5 / 11 / 9.5 / 8
  • Bonus Attack Damage Per Fury: 5 → 3
  • Maximum Bonus Attack Damage: 40 → 24

E - Spinning Slash

  • Cooldown: 8 → 9
