How it works
Bruiser Build specific
You play Bruiser stacking HP, auto attacking and rushing one specific item. You adapt to enemy team, building tanky items.
You rush Titanic Hydra.
Titanic Hydra can be your only damage item.
Your auto attacks are quite powerful, thanks to Titanic Hydra and Grasp of the Undying. It's your main source of damage + your abilities.
How to play
Bruiser Build specific
This build is focused on a single item - Titanic Hydra.
How is this build different to other bruisers builds? The main difference is item rush order. You rush Titanic Hydra first, then adapt to the situation!
If you want to go more damage, Sundered Sky is an excellent damage item for this build. It scales off your HP (so with Grasp, Overgrowth). It gives damage and pretty good sustain in fights. Remember to switch targets to maximize the effect!
A very effective way of poking enemies is to use Titanic Hydra Active and hit minions in front of them (closer to them, better the effect).
Another effective way of poking enemies with Titanic, is to hit caster minions in the back.
Enemy team heavy on AP? Buy MR. They heavy on AD? Buy Armor. You need some damage? Well buy that.
Remember to consume your Grasp of the Undying procs!
Tips and Tricks
General
You can do 'insec' trick on Tristana by using R and Flash.
If you managed to stac 2 or 3 stacks of Explosive Charge on the enemy, in most cases, you can safely jump on him with W and jump out with another W (donating E resets W).
Riot
Her massive gun allows Tristana to fire on targets at a great distance. Utilize this to prevent your enemies from ever laying a hand on you.
Use Rocket Jump after you have stacked up your Explosive Charge on an enemy to finish them off with a burst of damage.
Use Rapid Fire to help stack up your Explosive Charge on enemy champions.
