| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Even / skill | Neither of you has a level-1 combo or shield — you're both weak and mana-starved, so just farm and deny his Q bite free AD. |
| Level 2 | Even / skill | Still no W shield up; he can chip with Q drain, so respect his trade and last-hit at range. |
| Level 3 | Ornn | Q and W online — Bellows Breath percent-HP poke and shield let you trade back and out-range his bite. |
| Levels 4-5 | Ornn | Your second combo point lets you punish steps-up with E-into-Q-pillar knock-ups he can't sustain through. |
| Level 6 | Ornn | R's long-range double knock-up plus E-Q-wall chains Brittle burst his drain can't heal. |
| First item | Ornn | Your Heartsteel/Sunfire spike makes you a durable W-poke bully who shoves him off CS. |
| Two+ items | Even / skill | His R resistance-steal and Q AD-drain out-sustain you in long even-gold duels — group and let Masterwork upgrades carry. |
Trundle has no level-1 kill threat and neither do you — you're both mana-hungry and weak, so just farm and don't feed his Q bite free AD steals. Once you hit 3 with Q and W, your Bellows Breath gives unstoppable percent-HP poke and a shield: chunk him from range instead of auto-trading where his Q drain wins. Watch for his W speed zone closing the gap to bite you, and back off the moment your mana is low.
