Who Wins
- You can contest early levels with Q poke and W attack speed, but Trundle's Q AD reduction and sustain make extended trades difficult.
- Post-6 becomes much harder as his R counters your tankiness and his pillar disrupts your all-ins significantly.
How to Trade
- Use Q to poke and slow, then look for short bursts with W active when he's chunked down.
- Avoid extended trades where his sustain and stat stealing become overwhelming - hit your abilities and disengage quickly.
Wave Control
- Try to maintain a slow push or neutral wave state to avoid being frozen on.
- You need jungle assistance to create meaningful advantages since Trundle outscales you in the side lane significantly.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't chase extended fights when he has R available as you'll lose resistances and health while he gains them.
- Avoid fighting near his W zone where he gets additional sustain and attack speed that swings trades heavily in his favor.
