Playing against Trundle
How to counter and exploit weaknesses
1
Trundle is a duelist — don't fight him 1v1, especially if he has R active.
2
His pillar (E) can be walked around but blocks the path: Flash or dash over it if you're trapped.
3
His R steals your stats: if you're a tank, he becomes tankier and you become squishier. Don't engage him alone.
4
Trundle is weak against kiting: ranged champions with slows counter him well.
