Talk:Tryndamere/@comment-4031457-20110731200151

A lot of people seem to be saying he got nerfed. I understand that crit damage scales way better into late game than flat AD on a full crit build, but he seems to get a lot stronger much earlier in the game now, and is still quite capable of dealing insane damage into late game. Which, I have to say, in blind pick games can be incredibly difficult to control for. At least before, seeing as his early and mid game was terrible, you could just try to keep Tryn down and stop him farming on his lonesome and that would prevent him from 2-shotting your carries late game, but now it seems really difficult to try and control Tryndamere cutting your entire team in half without having a team actually built around countering him (plenty of CC, at least one Exhaust and maybe an Ignite saved just for him). Even then, the way you counter a Tryndamere is, well, how you counter ANYONE who's raping your team: CC them down and focus them.

This is mostly coming from my experience AGAINST Tryn since the remake though, as I'm not a Tryn player. Having said that, I remember all the tears of the GP players saying he was nerfed and that without RNG-based gameplay he was a pointless champ to play, and now he's considered one of the strongest AD carries in the game. I think players will mostly see that Tryn is much stronger now, simply due to his consistency.
