Playing as Trundle

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Open your trades with Chomp

    Start your trades with Chomp (Q): the empowered auto slows your target, then steals some of their attack damage, which matters most against a physical damage dealer.

  2. Trade near the wave

    Take your trades near the wave: King's Tribute (passive) heals you for part of the max health of each enemy that dies near you, minions included.

  3. Fight in your domain

    Place Frozen Domain (W) where the fight will happen and draw the enemy into it: inside, you gain move speed, attack speed and increased healing.

  4. Cut off their escape with your pillar

    Place Pillar of Ice (E) behind the fleeing enemy: it blocks their path and slows nearby enemies.

  5. Steal the tank's resists

    Cast Subjugate (R) on the enemy tank: you steal part of their armor and magic resist, and your team can focus them down.

Playing against Gangplank

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Pop his kegs before he does

    Destroy his kegs before he does: a Powder Keg (E) destroyed by an enemy is defused, and each keg loses health over time.

  2. All-in, he has no dash

    If you can engage, go all-in: his kit has no dash to escape.

  3. Save a CC for after his W

    If your team has several CCs, don't use them all at once: Remove Scurvy (W) cleanses all his CC, then has a 22 to 14 second cooldown.

  4. Get out of his keg zone

    In teamfights, get out of his kegs' area: each Powder Keg (E) explosion deals the damage of the attack that set it off, ignores part of your armor and slows you.
