Playstyle
Bloodlust heals him through the early jungle, and clear speed rises as crit stacks. The point of the pick is Undying Rage: turn it on and take a dragon or baron the enemy cannot contest. With Infinity Edge and Phantom Dancer he takes towers alone in a side lane.

Champion Tips
Riot officialPlaying as
- Delaying the activation of Undying Rage is a very effective way to make an enemy champion over-commit to trying to kill you.
- Bloodlust is an excellent way to heal Tryndamere. Try not to let it fade off before you activate it.
- If the enemy is stacking Armor, try building items like Last Whisper or Youmuu's Ghostblade.
Playing against
- Try harassing Tryndamere early so he can't kill minions and heal with Bloodlust.
- Remember, Tryndamere can only slow you if you are facing away from him.
- Most of Tryndamere's damage is physical. If he's getting too strong, consider buying a Thornmail.
