Yasuo vs Trundle

Updated Jun 4, 2026

Overview

Use (Q) and (E) to maintain lane pressure and control space around minions to prevent Trundle from engaging effectively.
Prioritize snowballing early through wave-based trades and short skirmishes to deny Trundle's extended duel strength.

Trading pattern

Stack (Q) quickly and use (E) to dash through minions, creating unpredictable movement and space for knockups.
Use (W) to block (Q) and mitigate his attack damage steal threat during trades.
Punish Trundle when (W) is down or after he uses (E) to place his pillar, as his mobility and control drop significantly.

Danger windows

Respect (W) zone where he gains healing and attack speed; avoid prolonged trades inside it.
Beware of (E) placement cutting off your escape paths; maintain spacing to dodge or reposition around his pillar.
Be cautious when (W) and your passive shield are down, as you lose key defensive tools and become vulnerable to Trundle's sustained damage.

Early game

At level 2, use the unlocked (Q)+(E) combo to trade aggressively when minions are positioned to maximize mobility and knockup potential.
Avoid extended fights early as Trundle thrives in long trades inside (W); focus on quick burst trades and disengage.
Keep the wave on your side to ensure (E) mobility and prevent Trundle from safely using (W) for healing.

Power spikes

Level 2 unlocks your (Q)+(E) combo; use this window to force trades that are hard for Trundle to contest.
Level 6 (R) is a major spike; only commit to all-ins when you have a knockup ready to follow up and secure kills.
After your first item, increase wave pressure and trade confidence, but continue tracking Trundle's cooldowns to avoid extended fights.

Win conditions

Snowball early by using (Q) and (E) to control space and deny Trundle safe extended trades.
Use knockups to enable (R) for decisive all-ins, especially before Trundle completes key dueling items.
Maintain wave control to keep mobility options open and prevent Trundle from forcing long fights or safe splitpush pressure.
