Trundle vs Rengar

Updated Jun 6, 2026

Overview

Use Trundle's strong dueling and high invade resistance to contest river and camps early against Rengar.
Prioritize controlling Scuttle and river vision to deny Rengar's brush-based pick angles and limit his early invade threat.

Jungle Plan

Full clear and track Rengar's jungle timers to identify safe invade windows and counter-jungle opportunities.
Fight for first Scuttle only when nearby lanes have priority to support river control and deny Rengar vision.
Use (E) pillar to cut off Rengar's escape routes near objectives and force extended duels inside (W) zones for stat advantage.

Danger windows

Beware of Rengar's early invade attempts near brush when lanes lack priority or vision coverage.
Isolated river fights without lane support expose Trundle to Rengar's high mobility and root (E) threat.
Forced smite fights on dragon or Herald can be risky if Rengar gains pick advantage or controls brush vision first.

Early game

Start pathing toward river or lanes with priority to contest first Scuttle and leverage (E) pillar for trapping Rengar.
Avoid fighting Rengar in isolated brush without vision and lane priority to prevent his empowered engage.
Use steady clear speed to maintain healthy HP and be ready to counter-invade when Rengar commits to aggressive paths.

Power spikes

Level 6 (R) dramatically increases Trundle's dueling potential by stealing resistances; target durable enemies for maximum impact.
First dueling item completion strengthens Trundle's side-lane pressure and tower threat, forcing Rengar to avoid isolated fights.
Rengar's early brush control and empowered abilities require respecting his pick windows before Trundle secures vision and lane priority.

Win conditions

Convert superior dueling and (R) stat drain into controlling early dragons and Rift Herald with lane priority.
Use (E) pillar and (W) zones to trap Rengar and force extended fights that favor Trundle's sustain and damage steal.
Deny Rengar free farm and invade safely to delay his scaling and reduce his pick threat in mid-game skirmishes.
