Except for rare builds, Trundle deals physical damage. Focus on eliminating enemy carries. Aatrox deals mainly physical damage (88.35%), additional items against this damage type may be required against snowballing or aggressive play.

Meanwhile, their higher KDA (1.9 versus 1.3) suggests they participate more effectively in team fights.

Key aspects of the Trundle Top versus Aatrox Top matchup

In this difficult confrontation, it is critically important for the Trundle player to avoid attempts to force trades and all-ins with the Aatrox player, as the matchup requires a patient and calculated approach.

Trundle tips:

  • Trundle excels at fighting within his Frozen Domain. Try to draw enemies onto it.
  • Use Subjugate to soften a powerful enemy tank or to create a target for your team to focus fire.
  • Chomp is good for lowering the physical damage of enemies; try to focus it on enemy physical damage dealers.

Playing Against Aatrox

  • Aatrox's attacks are very telegraphed, so use the time to dodge the hit zones.
  • Aatrox's Infernal Chains are easier to exit when running towards the sides or at Aatrox.
  • Keep your distance when Aatrox uses his Ultimate to prevent him from reviving.
