Track: Twitch's Q — Ambush (16s cooldown). The stealth approach starts every Twitch fight — sweep the flanks and track the disappearance.
Read from Tristana's seat: which stage windows this plan plays for against Twitch.
This is Tristana's own plan; across 11,191 pooled games the lane is leaning Tristana.
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Tristana | You out-body a farm-starved Twitch at level 1. |
| Level 2 | Tristana | Your level-2 poke beats his weak early laning. |
| Level 3 | Tristana | At 3 your jump-E burst kills his squishy frame outright. |
| Levels 4-5 | Tristana | Through 4-5 you keep diving and denying the stacks he needs. |
| Level 6 | Tristana | Your level-6 R out-duels his body before his R matters. |
| First item | Tristana | First item your reset DPS spikes past a still-stacking Twitch. |
| Two+ items | Twitch | Two items in, his R shred and stealth flanks outscale you. |
Level 1-2 you crush a farm-hungry Twitch: he has no waveclear and a fragile body, so bully his CS, poke with autos, and set up the level-3 E all-in. No wave-clear and a paper body means his CS is yours to tax, so poke him off it and build toward the level-three detonation. Pay for the sweeper so the flank stops being a guess. Hold the jump for the instant he shows himself, and take the plate rather than following him into fog.
