Track: Tryndamere's R — Undying Rage (120–80s cooldown). Five seconds unkillable — save your kill damage for after it ends.
Read from Ziggs's seat: which stage windows this plan plays for against Tryndamere.
This is Ziggs's own plan; across 948 pooled games the lane is even.
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Ziggs | Q out-ranges him, but a Fury-fed walk-up at level 1 trades even. |
| Level 2 | Ziggs | He still can't reach you, but Bloodlust heals your Q chip back off. |
| Level 3 | Ziggs | You zone CS; his Spinning Slash (12s) answers a step-up. |
| Levels 4-5 | Even / skill | Levels 4-5 are a genuine skill check once his E gap-close and W slow come online. |
| Level 6 | Ziggs | At 6 your R out-ranges him, but Undying Rage's 5s makes your burst refundable. |
| First item | Ziggs | First item gives you the burst to chunk him before he ever connects. |
| Two+ items | Ziggs | Two items and he kills you in the sidelane; answer with waveclear. |
From level 1-2 Tryndamere can only walk up and last-hit, so free-poke him with Short Fuse Q and keep his Fury bar empty; every point of Fury denied is crit and E damage he doesn't get.
