Heimerdinger vs Trundle

Updated Jun 3, 2026

Overview

Use turret zones to control the lane and force Trundle to farm under pressure, denying him easy trades.
Maintain lane pressure to prevent Trundle from engaging extended fights inside his (W) zone, which favors him.
Focus on controlling the lane and punishing melee approaches rather than scaling or roaming.

Trading pattern

Initiate trades by forcing Trundle into your turret zone, then use (E) to stun and (W) to burst when he commits.
Punish Trundle when his (E) pillar is down or poorly placed, limiting his escape and control.
Avoid fighting away from turrets and respect his (R) stat drain by not extending trades when it is active.

Danger windows

Trundle is most dangerous inside his (W) zone with (R) available; avoid prolonged trades in this window.
Be cautious when your turrets are cleared or (E) is down, as your zone control and anti-dive potential drop significantly.
Watch for ganks when pushing without vision, as your low mobility makes escapes difficult.

Early game

Establish multiple turrets early to define your zone before Trundle can engage.
Hold (E) to punish Trundle's attempts to walk into turret range or use (E) to slow and disrupt his (E) pillar placement.
Avoid pushing without vision to prevent ganks, as your low mobility makes you vulnerable when overextended.

Power spikes

Level 3: Full turret, (W), and (E) combo is online; use this to punish Trundle's melee approaches aggressively.
Level 6: Choose the appropriate (R) upgrade to strengthen zone control or burst, forcing Trundle to fight on your terms.
Respect Trundle's level 6 (R) as it drains your resistances and health; avoid extended fights during its duration.

Win conditions

Maintain strong turret zones to deny Trundle safe farming and force him into unfavorable trades.
Use upgraded (R) abilities to prevent dives and win objective setups by controlling space.
Exploit windows when (E) and (R) are down to land stuns and burst damage, securing kills or forcing him out of lane.
