Trundle vs Wukong

Updated Jun 6, 2026

Overview

Trundle excels at early river contests and dueling, so prioritize contesting Scuttle and invading weaker duelists like Wukong before level 6.
Use Trundle's superior stat-steal and sustain to force extended fights around objectives and punish Wukong's moderate invade resistance.
Focus on controlling side lanes and forcing fights where (E) pillar can trap Wukong, denying his mobility and engage potential.

Jungle Plan

Prioritize pathing that leads to early Scuttle control and invade Wukong's jungle when lanes can follow or he shows on the opposite side.
Use (E) pillar to cut off Wukong's escape during river fights or objective setups, forcing him into unfavorable duels.
Counter-gank lanes where Wukong can engage with (R), using (W) zone to sustain and (Q) to weaken him in extended fights.

Danger windows

Be cautious contesting river fights when Wukong reaches level 6 with (R) available, as his engage can disrupt your team.
Avoid low-health clears or forced smite fights early, as Wukong's clone and dash can punish overextensions.
Respect lanes without priority that Wukong can gank using (E) dash and (R) knockup to create kill pressure.

Early game

Start with a clear that positions you near the first Scuttle crab to contest or secure it before Wukong arrives.
Avoid early invades when Wukong's nearby lanes have priority or when he has level 6, as his engage and knockup increase risk.
Track Wukong's pathing to counter-gank effectively, especially around river and dragon where his (R) can turn fights.

Power spikes

Level 6 (R) drastically increases Trundle's dueling power by stealing resistances; target Wukong or his frontline tanks to dominate fights.
First dueling item spike enhances Trundle's ability to pressure side lanes and punish isolated Wukong.
Avoid fighting Wukong during his level 6 spike when he can use (R) knockup to engage; instead, prepare counter-ganks or disengage.

Win conditions

Convert early river control and Scuttle dominance into dragon and Rift Herald setups to snowball advantage.
Use (E) pillar and (R) stat drain to isolate and punish Wukong in side-lane duels, denying his teamfight impact.
Leverage Trundle's strong dueling and objective control to force Wukong into reactive play, securing vision and tempo for your team.
