Lol. Trynda is not an "AD carry". He's not ranged but melee. He fails miserably when trying to imitate that silly role, except vs. Sona/Soraka bot and my 7 yr old brother playing Darius with Kage's Lucky pick.

Youmu's is a recommended item for Tryndamere and for a good reason: It includes everything Tryndamere ABSOLUTELY NEEDS to defeat the big hard boyz.

Zeke's Herald is ALSO a recommended item for Tryndamere, and for a good reason as well: It offers him many stats that he utilizes, in one nice good package.

In low ELO, people don't usually build defenses/counters, so it's absolutely silly to even pick Tryndamere when you can pick Master Yi for exactly the same role (AND he's recommended AND utilizes AP AND has a mega poke) and achieve mathematical wonders (20+ to 30+ kills with minimal deaths, if any).

If we are going to suggest things like "don't pick this item, nor this, nor that, they are unviable", we can also be honest with ourselves and suggest the obvious: Don't pick Tryndamere, don't pick dedicated supports in solo que (and dodge all teams with Nidas and Teemos and Karmas, as well as Lux's who say "I mid"), don't pick highly technical champions, and avoid like the devil ANY melee carry if you are going to itemize him like a ranged sissy-carry, because you'll lose 80% of your games and it will be ENTIRELY your fault. Entirely, as in, report and ban worthy.

Spirit Visage can help Tryndamere in a very specific way; Health+Magic Resistance vs. a heavy magic damager, healing increase for when that heavy magic damager doesn't let you build-up fury nor farm, and cooldown reduction so you can heal yourself more often and have the option to spin-escape. It's an item with a very specific purpose and you will need it VERY often if you feed during laning vs. a magic damager.

Note: The magic damager doesn't need to be a dedicated mage, he could be an early game Udyr/Warwick/Sion who rapes you everytime you dare touch an enemy minion.

Lastly, late game is a very, very distant and often non-reachable phase in the game in pubs. So, you'll carry hard and rape hard in late game, rape mega hard, rape super mega hard, in your dreams. Caitlyn and MissFortune will have finished you off 0/8/0 by the 20 minute mark and you'll just hate Tryndamere and abandon really learning how to play him.
