Champion Overview:


Trundle is a tanky Dps champion who provides amazing zone control and has a various assortment of ways to buff himself and debuff the enemy. Trundle has a very strong disengage and works VERY WELL in poke comps. In lane trundle is strong against most champions who have to come within auto range.

Skills Overview:


King's Tribute(passive)- Whenever an enemy unit near Trundle dies, he heals for 2 / 3 / 4 / 5 / 6 % of their maximum health.

This passive acts as a free source of sustain at all times while you are in lane by creeps dieing.

Chomp- Trundle enhances his next basic attack, dealing 20 / 40 / 60 / 80 / 100 (+ 100 / 105 / 110 / 115 / 120 % of total AD) physical damage and slowing its target by 75% for 0.1 seconds. This attack increases Trundle's attack damage by 20 / 25 / 30 / 35 / 40 for 8 seconds, with his opponent losing half of this amount for the same duration.

This skill is an AMAZING onhit. This skill will debuff the enemies AD as well as lend you a free BF sword FOR 8 SECONDS. This buffs duration outlasts the CD of the skill meaning in a fight you can keep this up permanently.

Frozen Kingdom- Trundle coats a target 1000-radius location with ice for 8 seconds, gaining 20 / 25 / 30 / 35 / 40 % bonus movement speed, 20 / 35 / 50 / 65 / 80 % attack speed, and 8 / 11 / 14 / 17 / 20 % increased healing and regeneration from all sources while he is on it.

This skill is a strong AoE steroid area. The bonuses this skill will give you are really good but it is limited to the inside of the field. Using this skill will make you gain more sustain from your passive so you should use this as minions are dieing on turret.

Pillar of Ice- Trundle creates an icy pillar at a target location for 6 seconds, creating impassable terrain and slowing all enemy units by 25 / 30 / 35 / 40 / 45 % around the pillar. Enemies caught in the center of the eruption are briefly knocked back.

OMG THIS SKILL IS GOOD. This skill is a move that allows you to engage and disengage fights. This skill is very good for disrupting ganks and preventing enemies from escaping. The pillar can also be used to grant sight of an area for 6 seconds which allows you to use it to get sight of an objective or a brush before you walk in it.

Subjugate- Trundle drains 10 / 12 / 14 % (+ 2% per 100AP) of an enemy champion's max health as magic damage and 40% of their armor and magic resist, half immediately and half over 4 seconds. The armor and magic resist bonus/reduction lasts for 4 after it has been fully applied.

THIS NEW ULTIMATE IS AMAZING. The % heal is AMAZING for heal baits especially if you have your frozen kingdom out for the heal increase. The armor/mr steal allows you to duel pretty much any top lane champion straight up and be able to win.
