Playing against Rumble

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

1

When Rumble is Overheated (red bar), he's silenced and can't use abilities for 6s.

2

His R is devastating in tight spaces: don't fight in the jungle or chokepoints against Rumble.

3

Rumble is vulnerable to direct engages because he's squishy with no mobility.

4

MR is very effective against him: all his damage is magic.
