Read from Dr. Mundo's seat: which stage windows this plan plays for against Gwen.
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Dr. Mundo | Level 1 is yours because Gwen has no Q yet, so your raw autos win the first trade. |
| Level 2 | Even / skill | Level 2 is even: Snip Snip! cuts true damage but 40 mana a cast rations it. |
| Level 3 | Even / skill | Level 3 is even: Hallowed Mist is 22s at rank 1 — trade when it drops. |
| Levels 4-5 | Even / skill | Levels 4-5 stay even — step inside her Mist and she is targetable again. |
| Level 6 | Gwen | Level 6 evens out: Maximum Dosage heals through the first Needlework wave. |
| First item | Gwen | On first item Gwen's Nashor's on-hit spike shreds your tank build. |
| Two+ items | Gwen | With two-plus items her % HP true damage and kite make the late game firmly hers. |
Level 1 is your only edge — before Gwen has Q Snip Snip you can walk up and auto her, so land early hits and try to build a small lead while she has no true-damage snip and no Mist to hide in.
