Trundle Build 26.21

On the way up this patch and a fine but unremarkable pick at 50.2%, Trundle is about as pure a 1v1 machine as it gets. Chomp bites off their attack damage, his ice pillar splits the fight in two, and his ultimate drains a tank's health and resistances right off the body. Catch someone alone and he simply out-sustains and out-duels them. He is a pick-and-brawl specialist who thrives in isolated fights.

When Is Trundle Strongest?

The win rate runs highest in the opening minutes and eases off later, and games at this rank average around 28 minutes. Trundle wins by picking fights he cannot lose, so the plan is to abuse his dueling edge around objectives and early skirmishes and save the ultimate to neuter the enemy's key frontliner.

Trundle Item Build

Trundle is a dueling bruiser who steals the enemy tank's own stats and out-sustains anyone foolish enough to fight him one on one. The build mixes health and resistances with attack speed so his bite hurts, his domain heals him through trades, and his ultimate flips the biggest bruiser on the other team.

Best Trundle Runes

Lethal Tempo suits the way he grinds a fight down. Chomp steals attack damage while his frozen zone keeps him swinging, so the longer a duel runs the more the keystone stacks in his favor. Build the rest around sustain and dueling stats so he never has to leave a fight he is winning.

Build Ravenous Hydra into Trinity Force and play for the drawn-out fights his sustain wins. Stalling out hurts, so press any early edge you get. Once Trinity Force is up at about the 19-minute mark, his Chomp and lifesteal turn every duel into a slow bleed the enemy cannot out-trade. Look for side-lane isolation and drag bruisers into a 1v1 you already control.

Trundle Skill Order

Chomp at one already takes attack damage off whoever he bites, Frozen Domain at two turns a patch of ground into extra attack speed and healing, and Pillar of Ice at three gives him terrain, so three points cover damage, sustain, and zoning.

Trundle Abilities

King's Tribute keeps him topped off through every skirmish, healing a chunk of an enemy's max health whenever one dies anywhere near him. Frozen Domain is more than a heal patch too, handing him move speed on top of the attack speed while he stands on it.

Trundle Matchups

Trundle wants a straight fight against a beefy, stat-heavy target he can bite down and rob with his ultimate, so single tanky bruisers are exactly his meal. Kiting ranged threats that never let him close, and poke that whittles him before the duel starts, are what actually give him problems.

Percent-health poke and long range give Cho'Gath, Camille, and Jayce the tools to whittle him before he locks down a duel, so wait for your pillar and pick the terms. He dominates Volibear, Tryndamere, and Ambessa, chomping their damage away and draining single-target bruisers dry in a straight fight. Force the isolated brawl, drop the pillar to cut off help, and let the sustain do the rest.
