Aurora vs Dr. Mundo

Updated Jun 4, 2026

Overview

Aurora should pressure Dr. Mundo early to deny his safe farming and scaling potential.
Focus on using mobility and burst to avoid prolonged trades and prevent Mundo from reaching his health item spikes.
This is a snowball vs scale matchup where Aurora must leverage early agency to disrupt Mundo's late-game durability.

Trading pattern

Initiate trades by casting (Q), reposition with (E), and reactivate (Q) for burst damage.
Punish Mundo when his (Q) cleaver misses, as he loses his main poke and trading tool.
Avoid trading immediately after using (W) or when (E) is on cooldown since these windows reduce your escape and damage potential.

Danger windows

Be cautious when Mundo's (Q) cleaver repeatedly lands, as he can slow and chase effectively.
Avoid extended trades when Mundo's (R) is up, as his healing and movement make him hard to burst down.
After using (W), be aware of your lack of quick escape and avoid overextending or forced fights.

Early game

Use short trades with (Q) and (E) to poke Mundo and avoid extended fights before level 6.
Avoid using (W) carelessly since it leaves no quick escape; save it for dodging key abilities or setting up picks.
Keep the wave in a manageable state to prevent Mundo from safely farming with (Q) cleavers.

Power spikes

At level 6, use (R) for high mobility and burst to secure picks or disengage; track Mundo's (R) healing to time all-ins effectively.
After completing your first AP burst item, increase pressure on Mundo with more confident trades and wave control.
Respect Mundo's level 6 (R) healing and movement speed; avoid committing fully when it is active.

Win conditions

Use verified cooldown windows and (R) availability to pick off Mundo or roam to assist other lanes.
Deny Mundo safe farming by applying pressure with burst trades and wave control before he scales.
Transition into teamfights focusing on flanks and disruption, leveraging your mobility and burst to outmaneuver Mundo's durability.
