League Start Question (Slayer vs Trickster)

Starting to think about next leagues starter build.

1. I have never played slayer or trickster, but I know I was to play a ES stacker end-game next league.

2. I hate leveling new characters mid league, so I know I want to league start duelist.


Question: What are some builds (given current game state, no use it guessing at next leagues nerfs/buffs) that are great leaue starters.


1. Dislike dying, not great at dodging mechanics, should be reasonably tanky.
2. Able to self farm at least first 2 void stones.
3. Doesnt need multiple uniques to enable build
4. Has good mapping clear


Been looking at stuff like:

Slayer-frostblades
Slayer-lighting strike
Trickster-econc

But kind of lost/unsure about viability as alot of the guides are from 3.25 pre-skill nerf.

I've previously league started as the following, and not really liked any of them.

3.24: EA Ballista Champion
3.25: EHotS Warden
3.26: VFoS Beserker
