Aurora vs Trundle

Updated Jun 4, 2026

Overview

Aurora is a mobile burst mage who must manage medium lane pressure and avoid giving Trundle extended fights inside his (W) zone.
Focus on denying Trundle long trades and scaling by using pick windows and mobility rather than direct dueling.

Trading pattern

Use (Q) followed by (E) and reactivate (Q) quickly to burst Trundle before he can engage with (Q) or (E).
Punish when (W) is down by stepping forward for short trades and wave pressure.
Avoid trading after using (W) invisibility as you lose your quick escape and (E) is easy to dodge.

Danger windows

Respect (W) zone where he gains healing and attack speed; avoid prolonged fights there.
Be cautious when Trundle uses (E) pillar to block escape or slow you, as it enables his follow-up damage.
Avoid fighting during (R) duration on durable targets to prevent being stat-drained.

Early game

Play cautiously early as Aurora has low early agency; avoid extended trades before level 6.
Use (Q) and (E) combos to poke and reposition, but do not commit if Trundle positions inside his (W).
Avoid getting caught by (E) pillar slows which enable Trundle's follow-up damage.

Power spikes

At level 6, use (R) for high mobility and burst to secure picks or escape extended fights.
After first AP burst item, increase wave pressure and trade confidence while respecting (R) and (W) windows.
Respect Trundle's level 6 (R) which steals resistances and health, avoid extended fights during its duration.

Win conditions

Use level 6 (R) to create pick opportunities and avoid extended duels where Trundle excels.
Deny Trundle side-lane space and scaling by pressuring waves and punishing cooldowns.
Leverage mobility and burst to flank and disrupt teamfights, capitalizing on Trundle's low mobility outside (W).
