Read from Kayle's seat: which stage windows this plan plays for against Dr. Mundo.
This is Kayle's own plan; across 903 pooled games the lane is even.
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Dr. Mundo | Mundo's Infected Bonesaw throws for a percent of your current HP on a 4s cooldown, and with melee autos, no escape and one point of Q you simply lose that trade repeatedly. |
| Level 2 | Even / skill | You have only Radiant Blast and one W point against his bonesaw-and-heal poke, and Infected Bonesaw is a 4s cooldown — he can miss it twice and still win the level. |
| Level 3 | Even / skill | Radiant Blast's resist shred helps, but your autos are still melee, so his 4s bonesaw out-paces your 12s Q and Heart Zapper heals most of the rest back. |
| Levels 4-5 | Even / skill | Celestial Blessing's 15s heal stabilizes you, but Heart Zapper heals back a slice of everything you deal — you cannot win a grind with him before level 6. |
| Level 6 | Even / skill | Right before level 6 it's still even: you're recovering CS at max range and he can't all-in through your incoming R, but you can't punish his cleaver yet either. |
| First item | Kayle | Divine Ascent makes your autos ranged AoE waves and your first item powers E's missing-health magic, so you kite his cleaver and out-DPS his passive heal from outside his range. |
| Two+ items | Kayle | Fully built, E's missing-health magic and your attack-speed AoE burn his max-HP bar faster than Maximum Dosage heals, and Divine Judgment blanks his all-in — you win the 1v1 and the fight. |
Mundo is the rare early bully you genuinely fear without a dash: his Infected Bonesaw throws for a percent of your current HP every 4 seconds and Goes Where He Pleases regenerates the spent health back, so every trade is lopsided while you're still melee with only Q and one point of W. Do not walk up to last-hit into a bonesaw you can see coming — soak it on the wave or sidestep it, and never burn W's heal to top off poke he'll re-apply for free. Concede CS here; a Blunt Force Trauma all-in can genuinely kill you before 6.

Start Doran's Blade + Health Potion and back for Executioner's Calling (≈800g) — cuts his healing. Build Nashor's Tooth (the ramp begins) first, then Riftmaker / Rabadon's, with Plated Steelcaps.
