Trundle's E isn't a knock-up or knock-back.

The ability creates terrain at the specified location and any champions at that location will be moved off of the newly created terrain.

While this ability can result in your champion being moved, it isn't actually a displacement or hard-CC. It functions identically to Anivia's Wall in this regard.

This is why it can affect an Olaf during his ultimate and champions who have been Black Shielded by Morgana.

It is a knock up a yas can ult off it

Just because Yas can ult to it doesn't mean it's a knock up. He can ult provided the enemy is displaced in any form bar Poppy ult.

But displaced mean it's cc so you did just say I was right he saying me.crabs didn't lose his armor when he E it

Yes it's displacement, but really minor displacement. It's barely anything, it can interrupt channels sure, but it doesn't do anything that renders the character incapable of action. Therefore it's not Hard CC, which is what is needed for Scuttle's defenses to drop.

The pillar itself isn't cc but as it comes out it actually knocks you back, not like anivia wall there's actually a noticeable knock back

That's the thing; Trundle's pillar isn't a knock-up or knock-back CC.

It's not the ability itself which displaces you; all the ability does is create terrain with a slowing field surrounding it. The displacement is caused by your character interacting with the newly created terrain and being moved off of it.

A similar example (that's not Anivia's wall) would be using a gap-closer on Baron Nashor. If you use an ability which places you directly on top of Baron (i.e. Jax Q, Wukong E, Irelia Q), you will be pushed off of him. This functions identically to the displacement resulting from Trundle's pillar.

"ACTIVE: Trundle projects a pillar of ice at the target location for 6 seconds, Airborne icon knocking back everyone directly over it on cast, acting as impassable terrain for the duration and Slow icon slowing enemies around it."
