Statistical Matchup Analysis

With 2.3% popularity, Trundle constantly encounters meta-dominant Sett (7.5%, 2nd place out of 63 Top champions). Understanding how to play against this popular champion becomes essential for consistent Trundle performance in the current patch. Optimize for consistency: Lethal Tempo paired with Triumph (52.4% win rate, 97.7% popularity) provides the stats you need, while the item sequence Ravenous Hydra > Hullbreaker > Blade of The Ruined King with Plated Steelcaps delivers 70%+ win rate against Sett.

Lane dominance: Trundle not only wins the matchup but crushes CS (6.77/min vs 6.00 for Sett). This 0.77 CS/min advantage generates significant gold leads that compound your already favorable position. Quality over quantity: Trundle wins through smart play rather than raw damage - despite lower DPS (749 vs 762/min), the 52.7% win rate shows superior utility, positioning, and team fight impact. Intriguing anomaly: Trundle wins the matchup (52.7%) despite a lower KDA (1.40 vs 1.70). This suggests you win through macro influence and clutch plays in key moments rather than consistent individual performance.

How to Beat Sett as Trundle (Top)

The Trundle versus Sett matchup in the top lane is favorable with proper positioning. Use your statistical advantage and prevent the opponent from realizing their potential.

Except for rare builds, Trundle deals physical damage. Focus on eliminating enemy carries. Sett deals mainly physical damage (75.53%), additional items against this damage type may be required against snowballing or aggressive play.

An important advantage of Trundle is higher farming statistics (ranked 24th among role champions) (versus 51st for Sett), which provides a stable gold advantage in extended games and allows faster access to key items. Meanwhile, their higher KDA (1.7 versus 1.4) suggests they participate more effectively in team fights.

Key aspects of the Trundle Top versus Sett Top matchup

Despite the statistical advantage in the matchup, overconfidence can be the main mistake. It is important for the Trundle player to maintain constant pressure on Sett, not allowing the opponent to safely scale up, and actively use the advantage gained to help their team.

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.
