Trundle vs Talon

Updated Jun 6, 2026

Overview

Trundle's strong early dueling and high invade resistance let him contest river and counter-invade Talon before Talon can leverage his mobility.
Prioritize extended fights and objective control to exploit Trundle's stat steal and healing against Talon's burst and roam reliance.

Jungle Plan

Full clear efficiently to reach level 3 and contest first Scuttle when allied lanes can pressure river.
Invade Talon early if you track his path and lanes have priority, using (E) to trap him near camps or objectives.
Control river vision and force fights around dragon and Rift Herald when you have lane priority to deny Talon's roam windows and scaling.

Danger windows

Talon's level 2 all-in combo and early burst pose a threat if you overextend before (W) or (R) are available.
Isolated river fights are risky when (R) is up, as he can burst and escape with stealth.
Avoid low-health clears or forced smite fights when Talon can capitalize on his mobility and burst damage.

Early game

Start with a clear path that positions you for early Scuttle crab contest, especially if nearby lanes have priority.
Avoid early river fights if Talon has lane priority or his (R) is up, as his burst and stealth can punish isolated skirmishes.
Track Talon's pathing to counter-gank his roams; use (E) to block his escape routes during ganks.

Power spikes

Level 6 (R) drastically improves dueling by stealing tank stats; target Talon if he commits or durable frontline if present.
First dueling item completion strengthens side-lane pressure; use (W) zone and (E) pillar to force extended fights and tower damage.
Respect Talon's level 2 burst combo and post-(R) stealth window by avoiding fights or preparing to counter-gank with vision.

Win conditions

Use superior dueling and (R) stat steal to dominate jungle skirmishes and deny Talon camps.
Secure early Scuttle and dragon control with lane priority to limit Talon's roam and objective pressure.
Convert side-lane pressure and extended fights into Rift Herald and tower plates, leveraging (E) to trap Talon or cut off his escape during ganks.
