Tryndamere
The Barbarian King
Fueled by unbridled fury and rage, Tryndamere once carved his way through the Freljord, openly challenging the greatest warriors of the north to prepare himself for even darker days ahead.

- If the enemy is stacking Armor, try building items like Last Whisper or Youmuu's Ghostblade.
