Vi vs Trundle

Updated Jun 6, 2026

Overview

Vi's high early pressure and clear speed let her contest river and force early picks before Trundle hits his dueling power spike.
Prioritize ganks where (Q) can force flashes and use (R) to lock down key targets for objective control.
Manage fights to avoid extended duels inside (W) zone where he gains sustain and damage.

Jungle Plan

Full clear when lanes are slow, then path to river for Scuttle control if lane priority favors you.
Track Trundle's first clear and be ready to counter-gank or invade if he commits to side camps without (W) active.
Use (Q) to initiate ganks on lanes with flash down, then follow with (R) for guaranteed picks to secure dragons and Heralds.

Danger windows

Avoid invading or fighting near river when Trundle has (W) active, as his sustain and damage spike.
Be cautious contesting Scuttle or objectives if (E) pillar can trap you without escape.
Low-health clears or forced smite fights near objectives are risky; back off if Trundle's nearby and lanes lack priority.

Early game

Start with a three-camp clear if early lanes lack priority to preserve health for early river contest.
Contest first Scuttle only if nearby lanes have priority and can follow up on ganks or counter-ganks.
Avoid fighting Trundle early without lane support, as his dueling and invade resistance are high before you get (R).

Power spikes

Level 6 (R) is Vi's key spike to secure picks and objective control; use it aggressively on high-value targets.
Trundle's level 6 (R) spike demands you avoid extended fights inside his (W) zone where he gains healing and resistances.
Vi's first dueling item completes her early skirmishing strength; use this to contest camps and force Trundle off objectives.

Win conditions

Convert early ganks with (Q) and (R) lockdown into dragon and Rift Herald control to snowball map pressure.
Deny Trundle free farm by invading after your first dueling item and exploiting his slower clear speed.
Use vision and lane priority to set up counter-ganks and pick opportunities before Trundle can force extended duels.
