Tristana vs Qiyana

Confidence mediumUpdated Jun 10, 2026

Overview

Use level 2 all-in windows with support follow-up to punish Qiyana's early burst setup.
Leverage (E) stacks to pressure turret plates after winning trades or forced recalls.
Avoid passive wave pushes that expose you to Qiyana's terrain-based (R) and burst combos.

Trading pattern

Threaten burst by stacking (E) then commit with (W) only if enemy disengage is down.
Punish Qiyana immediately if she uses (E) without lethal pressure or poor element setup.
Avoid jumping into large minion waves to prevent minion aggro and enemy peel turning trades against you.

Danger windows

Respect Qiyana's level 3 element combo and (E) dash when cooldowns are up.
Avoid fighting near walls or brush where (R) terrain stun is most threatening.
Do not overcommit if your (W) jump lacks support follow-up or Qiyana's disengage is ready.

Early game

Push for level 2 with your support and jump only if follow-up CC is ready.
Thin waves to avoid getting caught by (E) dash and terrain (R) stun.
Reset after crashing waves to maximize turret damage and deny Qiyana roam opportunities.

Power spikes

Level 2 unlocks your (W) jump and (E) burst, enabling strong all-ins with support.
First completed marksman item boosts your all-in burst and turret pressure potential.
Late game range and reset potential allow you to clean up fights after initial bursts.

Win conditions

Force level 2 or 3 all-ins with support to snowball turret plate damage.
Convert winning trades into turret pressure by crashing waves and stacking (E).
Use (W) resets to reposition aggressively or escape after committing to fights near mid lane river terrain.

Tip: For Tristana vs Qiyana, read overview, trading pattern, and danger windows first for a fast Mid lane check.
