Boots+3 pots and W is the safest way possible to start as Tristana, but can also be used aggressively. The extra hp, damage and lifesteal from a doran's blade can't compete with the utility of boots, especially if you're against a highly mobile champion like Vayne or Graves or Corki: it's better to not get hit at all than to have extra hp. Poking the enemy is only sensible if you manage to achieve something with it. Tristana's E has the potential to push the lane too much early on, so I get it last and level it up last.
