Season 11 has witnessed the rise of many old champions in League of Legends. Since the new Turbo Chemtank was added to the game, an even more unexpected champion has joined the group in a completely new role: Tryndamere mid.

League of Legends Patch 11.20 makes Tryndamere one of the best mid lane picks in LoL. For players who want to climb quickly, here is the Tryndamere mid guide and the runes and build to go with it:
  • Tryndamere was played six times at Worlds with a 3-3 record.
  • Cloud9 mid laner Luka 'Perkz' Perkovic had the most success with the pick, securing two wins with Tryndamere in the Play-Ins and posting a 8/1/13 stat line.
  • However, the threat of the pick made it much stronger. He was banned 12 times and showed a 39.1% presence at the international event, making him one of the most talked-about mid laners.
  • He also translated to solo queue. In high elo, Tryndamere sits at an average win rate of 49.41% but has a 4.15% pick rate. He was also banned in about 20% of games, so players are aware of his threat.
The reason behind his popularity has to do with a somewhat stale mid meta. Mid laners who can move quickly around the lane and rotate to the side lanes have gained popularity. Champions like Twisted Fate, Ryze and LeBlanc are popular picks for this.
Tryndamere is a big threat early on thanks to his passive, which gives him critical strike chance, and his kill threat, which allows easy lane trades. Because he can heal himself with his Q, it is impossible to come out of a trade at a loss. He can also easily push through lanes with his E before roaming around the map.
The prevalence of Goredrinker has helped too. The item was made for Tryndamere, maximizing his damage when his health is low and also giving him staying power to survive fights when he comes out of his ultimate.
