Read from K'Sante's seat: which stage windows this plan plays for against Dr. Mundo.
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | K'Sante | You only have Q and no engage, and his cleaver pokes you for percent-HP — but Mundo's level 1 is weak too, so just farm and deny. |
| Level 2 | Even / skill | His cleaver is a 4s current-health chip while you still have no combo to punish it — neither of you wins this level. |
| Level 3 | Dr. Mundo | Mundo's cleaver chunks you off current health and Heart Zapper heals him back before your combo can answer — he edges the level before your trading arrives. |
| Levels 4-5 | K'Sante | Your full Q-W combo lets you W-stun and Q3 around his cleaver cooldown, but his sustain claws it back — even trades, small leads. |
| Level 6 | K'Sante | Your R All Out's penetration duelist profile fights through his Maximum Dosage heal as well as his R answers your all-in — it's a coin-flip 6. |
| First item | K'Sante | Iceborn Gauntlet lets you slow and lock him for side-lane fights he cannot walk out of — with Grievous Wounds up, the grind is yours. |
| Two+ items | K'Sante | R All Out's damage and healing are the only thing that out-paces a full Mundo — with anti-heal up, you reclaim the late game his sustain would own. |
Levels 1-2 are a farm fest — you only have Q and no engage, and his cleaver (Q) chips you for percent-HP while his passive heals him back, so don't try to out-poke a drain tank. The trade pattern flips at Level 3: once you have the full Q-W combo you can W-charge into a committed Mundo, stun him, and land Q3 for the knock-up. Bait his Q cleaver first — when it's on cooldown his only damage is autos and E, and that's your window to step up. Don't throw a Q into max range and walk into his cleaver for nothing; every HP point you spend that he just heals back is value lost.
