Read from Aatrox's seat: which stage windows this plan plays for against Dr. Mundo.
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Aatrox | Level 1 favours Aatrox — a burst-less Mundo pays HP for every Bonesaw and loses the short trades. |
| Level 2 | Aatrox | Level 2 stays Aatrox's as his base stats and auto trades chip Mundo faster than he regens. |
| Level 3 | Aatrox | Level 3's full Q pattern lets Aatrox out-brawl a burst-less Mundo. |
| Levels 4-5 | Aatrox | Levels 4-5 keep favouring Aatrox's drain over Mundo's pre-item regen. |
| Level 6 | Aatrox | World Ender plus grievous wounds outpaces Mundo's passive and R heal. |
| First item | Aatrox | First-item grievous wounds sustains Aatrox's dominance before HP stacking. |
| Two+ items | Dr. Mundo | Two-plus HP items make Mundo's regen unkillable and out-scale Aatrox. |
Levels 1-2 already lean your way: Mundo has almost no early damage and every Infected Bonesaw cleaver costs him current HP, so step up and punish him whenever he throws one or reaches for a cannon. Even without the full Q pattern your base stats and auto-plus-passive trades chip a burst-less Mundo while he can only regen it back slowly. Deny him free CS, win the short exchanges, and set up the snowball window that opens at 3.
