The jungle race — the windows in Lillia's plan

Read from Lillia's seat: the race windows this plan plays for against Trundle.

StageReadWhy
Level 1 ClearDanger — Avoid TrundleDo not be seen at the first buff: Chomp steals your AD mid-fight and Pillar traps you inside his Frozen Domain. On top of that, Chomp (Q) steals AD on hit, so their level-1 trade is rigged in their favor, so they get there first. Refuse extended trades in his W zone and save your dash until after Pillar lands. Skip the level-1 crossing and farm the opposite quadrant until your spike lands.
Level 2 SkirmishDanger — Avoid TrundleHard no-contest for Lillia at level 2: Frozen Domain (W) attack speed makes their buff-pit duel one of the best in the game, and Chomp steals your AD mid-fight and Pillar traps you inside his Frozen Domain. Refuse extended trades in his W zone and save your dash until after Pillar lands. Path opposite, ward your entrances, and let the clock carry you to your own spike.
Level 3 RouteRespect TrundleChomp steals your AD mid-fight and Pillar traps you inside his Frozen Domain — Lillia has no answer to that at level 3. Pillar (E) cuts the escape — with Q AD-steal and W haste the duel is theirs on their half of the map too, so give up the level-3 river fight and answer the pressure cross-map.
Levels 4-5 MacroRespect Trundle — Path OppositeDo not trade windows with Trundle here: he uses 4-5 to steal camps and contest your jungle, where Pillar of Ice cuts off every retreat. Path opposite, keep your entrances warded, and answer the map, not the champion.
Level 6 BreakpointRespect Trundle's RThe six-spike belongs to Trundle, and Lillia's does not bridge the gap: Subjugate steals your health and resists and beats you with your own stats. Disengage the moment the drain lands — deny the follow-up while the stolen stats decay. Your own ultimate is a tool here, not a trump card — spend it to escape or equalize, not to start fights.
First Item SpikeLiandry's SpikeLiandry's turns your dust and burn into real damage, and your kite-duel into a genuine threat even against bruisers. Your clear becomes self-sustaining health-wise and absurd tempo-wise. Force Trundle to contest you at camps where your orbit has room, and melt them when they try. Trundle's first item is a real threshold — the sustain plus stat theft makes long fights ones he cannot lose.
2+ Items ScalingLillia Favoured — Wins LateFrom two items you out-scale Trundle. He steals your stats mid-fight, so the longer the duel runs the worse it gets, but none of that beats your full build in a straight fight.

How to beat Trundle as Lillia: the first clear and pathing

Start the buff that lets you chain into raptors early — your AoE Q wants the chaos camps. Trundle's start side matters little; your clear wins the race regardless, so path for your own efficiency. Trundle clears fast in Frozen Domain and heals off King's Tribute, so he arrives at every crossing at full health.
