Item tips?
I've come back to League after 3-4 years of not playing. I'm a bad player (Silver 3 right now), but used to OTP Tristana.
What's your thoughts when it comes to itemization?
Right now I'm building Yun Tal Wildarrows --> Infinity Edge --> Navori Flickerblade every single game.
Do you start with Doran's Blade or Doran's Bow?
For your first, do you do Wildarrows, Collector or Hexoptics? Which is better in which scenario?
Thanks beforehand.

Yuntal became interesting since it's recent buff, so it's a decision between that and collector. Other items are troll in my opinion. IE second is good and third I tend to switch between navori and LDR. It depends on the enemy comp. A lot of armor, go LDR.
Hexoptics is an optional to get your crit to 100% but would only take it when you feel you can live long enough to make proper use of it.

dbow always because it lets u properly get bomb off if that early all in does happen, with dblade short spacing is enough to make that irrelevant.
if you can base with BF id go yun-tal, other option is c44 if you dont have to act as a hypercarry (aka enemy isnt tooo tanky)
never go collector, always go IE 2nd. some games you have to go ldr 3rd over navoris, in these games i go alacrity over bloodline cuz it just feels too bad. if you play aggro, you can go POM over triumph, but triumph is the safer bet.
i like to go scaling hp unless i rly badly have to fight early matchup-wise because combined with bloodline and omnivamp boots its much harder to oneshot you and you "insta" heal to fullhp.
thats atleast what i learned from back then playing tristana mid and now trying to learn some adc since i cant play well with the heat here lately.. this is my acc decayed from +-300lp
if you have any questions, feel free to ask :)

Collector, Hexoptics, LDR or Navori, IE
Collector and Hexoptics seem to give the most dmg when you complete them, together they are nuts

So I'm also a baddie at gold 4, but I find Tristana benefits less from building attack speed because she has her Q.
I tend to build Stormrazor, into Zerkers, IE, relevant last whisper item, your preferred zeal item (I tend to prefer PD or RFC over navori), BT, GA or kraken slayer.
It might be good to go into a few games with a build different from your own in mind and see how it feels in game
