How to Beat Yorick as Trundle (Top)

While statistically Trundle is slightly stronger than Yorick in the top lane, neither champion has an overwhelming advantage in this matchup. The winner is determined by player skill and understanding the intricacies of the confrontation. Studying this guide will improve your chances of success.

Except for rare builds, Trundle deals physical damage. Focus on eliminating enemy carries. Yorick has mixed damage, be careful as it may be harder to defend if the opponent gets ahead or plays aggressively.

An important advantage of Trundle is higher farming statistics (ranked 2nd among role champions) (versus 5th for Yorick), which provides a stable gold advantage in extended games and allows faster access to key items. Meanwhile, their higher KDA (1.7 versus 1.3) suggests they participate more effectively in team fights.

Key aspects of the Trundle Top versus Yorick 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 Yorick, 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.
