AI Analysis

Itemization

You repeatedly fell behind on power because you bought the wrong early pieces, starting with biscuits and then taking a 15% crit item as your first buy when you were still on zero crit. In this game, that meant you stayed weaker than Jhin for longer than you needed to, even when you had gold to spend. On Tristana, your early purchases should be about immediate lane strength and clean spikes: raw AD, attack speed, and a real first item that actually changes your damage pattern instead of gambling on crit value before your build is online.

Item Power Spikes

The biggest spike in this game was your Collector timing, and the review kept coming back to how often you fought or stayed on the map before actually cashing that spike in. When you had the gold for Collector but didn’t recall, you showed up to the next fight and Drake without the extra damage and execute that would have made those fights much easier. A good habit is to treat completed items as a green light to force the next play, but only after you’ve actually bought them — if your spike is sitting in your pocket, you’re playing with a fake lead.

Recall Timing

You missed several clean reset windows after kills and after taking tower, which left you wandering around low HP, low mana, and sitting on too much gold. The clearest example was after the double kill, where the wave state was already set up for a fast recall, but you stayed, tried to force more, and ended up losing more minions than if you had just backed immediately. In bot lane, the best resets are the ones that happen right after you’ve shoved the wave or taken a kill and before the enemy can re-enter lane, because that’s how you turn a good fight into an actual lead instead of just a messy trade.

Lane Assignments

After the early lane phase, you kept defaulting back to bot lane even when the game had already moved on and your team needed you mid. The review pointed out multiple times that you were sharing farm with Yone and missing the waves and fights that were supposed to be yours in mid. Once bot tower is down, your job as ADC is usually to take mid space, collect the safe waves there, and be present for the next objective — if you stay bot out of habit, you end up starving your own gold income and arriving late to the fights that decide the game.
