That's easy. Tristana is a long range marksman with burst. She scales from AP so the damage can't be exploited (or overnerfed) and due to marksmen and mages not gaining magic resistance the casting damage is relevant but by late game it will become full time utility and her passive and Q comes into place where she does hyper carry damage.
