How to win lane as Vladimir against Tryndamere · 51.56% win rate over 450 Emerald+ games · Updated 2026-07-27
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Tryndamere | Tryndamere's level-1 crit autos plus W Bloodlust sustain beat your poke outright. |
| Level 2 | Tryndamere | His level-2 spike and Fury stacking widen the trade gap in his favour. |
| Level 3 | Tryndamere | E Spinning Slash gives him a gap-close and reset threat you can't match early. |
| Levels 4-5 | Tryndamere | He continues to out-duel and out-sustain you through levels 4-5. |
| Level 6 | Tryndamere | R Undying Rage makes him unkillable at 6, so he wins the all-in phase. |
| First item | Tryndamere | His crit-item first spike outpaces your single AP item. |
| Two+ items | Vladimir | You finally outscale him at 2+ items when your burst can wait out and punish his R. |
Tryndamere out-trades you from level 1 — his crit autos and W Bloodlust sustain beat your poke, and he only gets stronger as he stacks Fury. Do not try to win short trades; farm with Q Transfusion at max range and hold W for his gap-close. Every level from 1 through 6 the lane favours him, so the goal is to survive even, not to win. Ward for jungle ganks since he loves to E over walls.
