Favour timeline — the windows in Camille's game plan

Read from Camille's seat: which stage windows this plan plays for against Tryndamere.

StageFavouredWhy
Level 1TryndamereHis level-1 auto plus a Battle Fury-building Spinning Slash out-damages your single Q before Adaptive Defenses can shield again — concede the first wave.
Level 2TryndamereYour second Q point lands the delayed re-cast for true damage and a move-speed boost, winning a short trade Bloodlust can't yet heal back.
Level 3TryndamereWith Q and W online you out-trade him — the W outer edge slows and heals you off him while his crit chance and Bloodlust lifesteal are still low.
Levels 4-5Even / skillYour Q cooldown drops and E's stun lets you dictate every short trade and cancel his commit; he has no answer until his crit and Fury scale.
Level 6Even / skillThe Hextech Ultimatum isolates him, but chunk him low first so a 120s Undying Rage's 5s immortality has nothing to save before you finish him.
First itemTryndamereYour lethality/bruiser first item spike outpaces his single-item crit — keep forcing all-ins while W's max-HP damage and heal still out-sustains him.
Two+ itemsTryndamereAt full build his crit spin and Bloodlust out-DPS and out-heal you even inside your R, which can't stop Undying Rage — don't 1v1 a fed Trynd; use R to lock him out of fights instead.

How to beat Tryndamere as Camille: the early game

Level 1 is his — his auto plus a Battle Fury-charged Spinning Slash out-trades your single Q before Adaptive Defenses can shield you again, so just farm and don't walk up. The lane flips at 2-3: once you have Q and a point in W you out-short-trade him hard. Land the delayed Precision Protocol re-cast for the true-damage second hit and the move-speed boost, clip his outer hitbox with W to chunk his max HP and stick the slow, then step back. Spinning Slash is 12s to your 16s Hookshot, so never spend your E chasing him into Mocking Shout.
