Impact of the Changes
There will be a lot of changes to Tristana in Patch 14.19 and this will surely change her performance in the League of Legends meta. The increase in her attack range and attack speed will make her a stronger early-game threat, while the scaling adjustments slightly temper her explosive late-game power. What Tristana players can try to do is be extra aggressive in the early game, taking advantage of her increased range and attack speed.
The W damage nerfs and E scaling reductions mean Tristana will be less of a burst-oriented marksman, relying more on sustained damage output in extended trades. However, the increased crit scaling on E will push crit items building on Trist.

Conclusion
Tristana’s overhaul in Patch 14.19 will surely make her perform better as she wasn't in a good place in the last few patches. We can't wait to see what the update will truly bring.
Stay tuned for the official release of Patch 14.19 on Wednesday, September 25, when these changes hit the live servers!
