How to play

General
  1. You build Lethality and wait for a moment to strike enemy squishes.
  2. Snowball / Mark is a crucial cooldown for playing this build. Do not waste it or even wait to hit the enemy at point-blank range to ensure hit (so you follow them, if they Flash).
  3. If an enemy team is full of tanks or bruisers, rush Serylda's Grudge or even Lord Dominik's Regards early (sometimes even #2). Black Cleaver is also an alternative. The key is to adapt to the enemy team.
Tryndamere Lethality specific
  1. Your primary damage source will be heavy hits from E.
  2. For a more auto-attack oriented version, take Hail of Blades.
  3. It makes sense to get a little bit of crit like Essence Reaver, The Collector or Phantom Dancer, so you can weave auto attacks, crit and cast E more often.

Tips and Tricks

Riot
  1. Delaying the activation of Undying Rage is a very effective way to make an enemy champion over-commit to trying to kill you.
  2. Bloodlust is an excellent way to heal Tryndamere. Try not to let it fade off before you activate it.
  3. If the enemy is stacking Armor, try building items like Last Whisper or Youmuu's Ghostblade.
