Why Trundle is favored

Trundle's Chomp(Q) lowers Yone's attack damage, while Subjugate(R) steals his health and resistances; those effects are especially punishing in a long duel. Trundle can sustain through Yone's short trades and keep the matchup in the side lane, where he is favored.

How to play as Trundle

Use Q when Yone commits to an extended trade, then activate R once he has spent E so you can steal his defenses while he cannot safely disengage.

Chomp(Q) steals attack damage, and Subjugate(R) steals health, armor, and magic resistance from Yone during an extended fight.

Frozen Domain(W) increases attack speed and healing, helping Trundle win longer trades after Yone's E damage window ends.

How to play as Yone

Keep trades short with E and leave before Trundle can use R; avoid fighting him on Frozen Domain(W) where his attack speed and sustain are stronger.
