Aatrox vs Dr. Mundo

Updated Jun 4, 2026

Overview

Use high lane pressure to deny Mundo safe farming and prevent his health scaling from becoming a threat.
Control spacing around (Q) sweet spots and maintain wave near your side to force Mundo into risky last-hits.
This is a snowball vs scale matchup where Aatrox must leverage early agency to shut down Mundo's late durability.

Trading pattern

Fish for (Q1) to land knockups and follow up with (W) to trap Mundo, denying his escape and punishing his low mobility.
Avoid committing to trades after missing (Q1) or when (E) is down, as Mundo can disengage or outlast short trades.
Use (R) windows to extend fights where your healing and resets outpace Mundo's sustain and force him out or kill him.

Danger windows

Be cautious when (Q) sweet spots are on cooldown and (E) is unavailable, as Mundo can punish your reduced threat and mobility.
Avoid extended trades when Mundo has (R) active, as his healing and movement make him difficult to kill in close fights.
Watch for ganks during your aggressive trades; Mundo's low lane pressure means you may be overextended if you miss (Q) or (E).

Early game

Pressure Mundo early by threatening (Q) sweet spots to punish his low early agency and force him to miss cleavers.
Avoid extended trades before level 6 to prevent Mundo from healing through (W) and passive regeneration.
Use (E) to reposition for safer trades and to disengage if Mundo tries to retaliate with (Q) slow.

Power spikes

At level 6, activate (R) to gain chase, healing amp, and reset potential; use this to force all-ins or punish Mundo's low mobility.
First fighter item spike increases your damage and durability, enabling safer repeated (Q) trades that Mundo struggles to contest.
Respect Mundo's level 6 (R) healing and movement speed by avoiding burst windows and disengaging if he activates it first.

Win conditions

Dominate early lane by landing repeated (Q) sweet spots and using (W) to trap Mundo, denying him safe farm and scaling.
Use (R) to convert extended trades into kills or force Mundo to recall, snowballing your lead.
Apply side-lane pressure post-spike to force Mundo into unfavorable fights or split-push scenarios where your damage and sustain excel.
