Read from Ashe's seat: which stage windows this plan plays for against Tristana.
This is Ashe's own plan; across 19,849 pooled games the lane is leaning Tristana.
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Ashe | Level 1 favours you: Volley out-ranges her short early autos. |
| Level 2 | Ashe | Level 2 favours you: W slow poke punishes her walk-up CS. |
| Level 3 | Ashe | Level 3 favours you: Frost pressure keeps her from trading pre-jump. |
| Levels 4-5 | Even / skill | Levels 4-5 are even: her Rocket Jump threat starts to answer your range. |
| Level 6 | Tristana | Level 6 favours Tristana: Buster Shot plus W all-in out-kills you. |
| First item | Tristana | First item favours Tristana: E burst and growing range beat your poke. |
| Two+ items | Ashe | Two-plus items favour you: permaslow and Arrow punish her forced dives. |
Levels 1-3 are yours: you out-range Tristana hard, W poke and Frost slow chip her every time she walks up to last-hit, and she has no way to trade back before Rocket Jump. Rocket Jump is a 22-second cooldown at rank 1 and it is both her engage and her escape. Whichever way she spends it, the next twenty seconds belong to you: slow her, stack Ranger's Focus and let your support commit. Keep the wave short so she cannot use tower as the landing pad for the jump back out.
