All
When Trundle uses his R on an enemy tank, focus that target with your team's damage — Subjugate steals 40% of the target's armor and magic resist for himself, leaving them far easier to burst down.
Team Fight
When ganking top lane with Trundle, approach from the side opposite his pillar — his E creates blocking terrain that cuts off the escape route, letting you sandwich the enemy between you and the pillar.
Lane Phase Skirmish
After Trundle casts his R on an enemy tank, he stays noticeably tankier for about 8 seconds — 4 seconds during the drain and 4 more after — since he keeps the stolen resistances while they're reduced on the target. This is a strong window to commit to the fight.
Team Fight
Avoid forcing a 4v5 fight while Trundle is split pushing mid-game — hold pressure elsewhere or play safe until he either draws enemies to his side lane or rotates back to the group.
Basic Late Game
In late-game fights, let Trundle create the opening rather than starting the fight yourself — his E creates space with its knockback and terrain, and his Q halves the attack damage of whoever he hits, both of which buy time for your team to follow up.
Team Fight Late Game
Trundle's Q halves the attack damage of whichever enemy champion he hits with the empowered auto attack — physical damage dealers should press the trade while that debuff is active.
Skirmish Team Fight
If you have a healing ability, use it on Trundle while he's standing in his own W — Frozen Domain increases all healing he receives by 25%, making your heals and shields notably more efficient on him.
