Every spell Rumble casts gives him Heat. When he reaches 50% Heat he reaches Danger Zone, granting all his basic abilities bonus effects. When he reaches 100% Heat, he starts Overheating, gaining bonus Attack Speed and granting his basic attacks bonus damage, but making him unable to cast spells for a few seconds.

Playing against Rumble
How to counter and exploit weaknesses
When Rumble is Overheated (red bar), he's silenced and can't use abilities for 6s.
His R is devastating in tight spaces: don't fight in the jungle or chokepoints against Rumble.
Rumble is vulnerable to direct engages because he's squishy with no mobility.
MR is very effective against him: all his damage is magic.
