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 Garen

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Hit him regularly

    Hit him regularly, even with a small poke: Perseverance (passive) only regenerates him if he hasn't taken damage recently.

  2. At range, kite him

    If you're ranged, kite him: his kit has no dash, and only Decisive Strike (Q) speeds him up and removes his slows.

  3. Burst after his shield

    Wait for the Courage (W) shield to end before your burst: the spell starts with a shield and tenacity, then keeps only a damage reduction.

  4. Don't stay low once he hits 6

    Once he hits level 6, back instead of staying in lane at low health against him: Demacian Justice (R) deals true damage that grows with your missing health.
