Is Tryndamere too Good now?

With the recent changes to Tryndamere, I've been seeing him power house through squishies like its nobodies business. The change to cleanse especially helped him. I've mained boost and ghost before the buff to cleanse and find even more reason to use it now.

A farmed tryndamere with a decked out book of armor pend and crit damage is such a force to be reckoned with. I will guarantee that he will be played rampant in all tiers of elo and will get the nerf stick not too long from now.

Push Strategy Now Viable

The push strategy prior to the tower nerf and creep buff was already annoying and was especially effective in the lower to mid tier range. Now with the recent changes it is even viable in the top tier play. I wonder how mid and lower tier is affected.

Recent Patch - The happenings

Heres a quick update on the recent patch.

1. Executioner's calling was bugged and granted a 12:1 Ap raio. Meaning 100 Ap will deal 1200 in burn damage over 12 seconds. However, it was quickly popularized and hotfixed at 10 PM Pst.

2. Udyr, a seemingly underwhelming champion. Players are still adapting to him to a viable playstyle. However, I don't think we will be seeing one too soon once he goes off of the free to play rotation.

3. Tryndamere - Appears to be a very good champion. I've been seeing him a lot of games lately. It feels like crit items like avarice blades are the way to go.

4. Ryze - his spell flux reworked makes it used more as a chain lightning. With an ancient golem buff you will see him casting it every 6 seconds.

Overall feel of things - I've been seeing a lot more physical carries as of late. Casters are slowly becoming underwhelming once again like prior to the wipes. I'm really digging Gangplank right now (for team orientated play). Especially because he is on free rotation. I stack him with Red Marks of Shielding, Yellow Seals of Evasion, Blue Glyphs of Shielding, and Quintessence of Fortitude. I first Build a Meki Pendant, Tabi, Frozen Heart, then Sunfires or Banshees. It feels like he can run into anything and walk out alive.
