Early game (levels 1–5)

Level 1 is even farm — Mundo throws Q Infected Bonesaw cleavers at the wave to poke and slow, and you sidestep them while last-hitting with Q Last Rites. His passive regen makes early poke wars pointless, so don't burn HP trying to zone a champ who just heals it back. Soak XP and set up for your level-2/3 spike.
