Trundle vs Kled

Updated Jun 4, 2026

Overview

This is a medium-pressure top lane matchup where Trundle aims to force extended melee trades and deny Kled's early all-in advantage.
Trundle should leverage his sustain and stat-steal tools to outlast Kled in prolonged fights and push for side-lane pressure.

Trading pattern

Initiate trades inside (W) to maximize healing and attack speed while using (Q) to reduce Kled's damage output.
Use (E) to pillar Kled's escape or chase paths during extended trades, forcing him into unfavorable positions.
Avoid trading when (W) is down or (Q) misses, as Kled's burst and mobility become more threatening.

Danger windows

Kled is most dangerous when his (Q) tether lands and (W) burst is available; avoid extended trades during this window.
Be cautious when Kled is near remount, as he can bait overcommit and turn fights unexpectedly.
Respect (R) engage path and shield; avoid clustering or overextending when it is off cooldown.

Early game

Avoid fighting when (W) burst autos are ready and respect his early level 2-3 all-in potential.
Use early wave control to keep lane extended and prepare to trade inside (W) when safe.
Focus on farming safely and punishing Kled's missed (Q) pulls to limit his early snowball.

Power spikes

At level 6, use (R) on Kled or any durable target to steal resistances and health, turning duels heavily in your favor.
After your first dueling item, pressure side lanes and force isolated fights where your sustain and stat steal excel.
Respect Kled's level 2-3 all-in with (Q) and (W) ready, and his level 6 (R) engage potential to avoid lethal trades.

Win conditions

Force extended duels inside your (W) to maximize sustain and stat steal, punishing Kled's reliance on burst trades.
Use (E) to cut off Kled's escape routes and follow up with (R) to drain his durability in fights.
Push side lanes after winning trades to pressure towers and leverage your splitpush identity against Kled's early all-in focus.
