Trundle is unplayably bad.

{quoted}

So, once again, .. no Trundle matches in your Match History ... SINCE APRIL!

Unless you're playing on a different account, .. your opinion might be a tad out of date.

He hasn't really received many direct changes this season

V8.2

• Subjugate

•  New Effect: Now draws nearby minion aggro when targeting an enemy champion. 
  

V8.16

• Chomp

•  Base damage reduced to 20 / 30 / 40 / 50 / 60 from 20 / 40 / 60 / 80 / 100.
  

  • AD ratio increased to 0 / 10 / 20 / 30 / 40% AD from 0 / 5 / 10 / 15 / 20% AD. Bonus attack damage duration reduced to 5 seconds from 8.

V8.18

• Pillar of Ice

•  Cooldown increased to 24 / 22 / 20 / 18 / 16 seconds from 22 / 20 / 18 / 16 / 14.
  

• Slow changed to 15 / 25 / 35 / 45 / 55% from 30 / 35 / 40 / 45 / 50%. 
  

He is still your highest winrate champion on this account for this season ( 18 / 32 ), aside from Leona, but that is only 2 / 3.

I don't play on this account. Its not the small direct nerfs that hurt him. its the damage creep, he cant tank it.

I just wanna say... Trundle is a bruiser. Who excels in skirmishes and roaming.

Why are you building full tank instead of ++ ? You DO realize that unless youre a high tier player you just... cant get away without building damage right? Or is your definition of tank "i build Titanic hydra, Steraks gauge, black cleaver, then SV and deadmans"?

He currently doesn't work as a champion unless you prioritize tank items and max Pillar first. Check his builds and his scaling, Titanic Hydra is probably the only damage item he can get away with building right now. After Runes Reforged became a thing, his build options were already limited, but after these latest nerfs he's effectively been shoehorned into a support role, even in the jungle. If you don't build Trundle tank, you're basically a burden to your team.

I am a jungler so I typically think of him as a jungle champion.

He may not be as strong top, .. but in the jungle he is oppressive

It's always funny to me when people use the "other champions can do the same thing, but better" argument. That really only matters if that other champion is on the other team. Yeah, maybe someone should pick that other champion instead of Trundle, but what matters is what he can do, and he can do a lot of the things that a good jungler needs.

Passive = sustain Q = AD stat stick W = Attack speed and Movement Speed stat stick and increased healing from passive E = Hard crowd control and persisting aoe soft crowd control R = % max hp magic damage to target and premitigation heal over time, and oh look, .. armor and magic resistance stat stick that actually steals the resistances from the target, making them weaker for him to wail on.

His kit is arguably busted.

And yes, it does matter that someone knows how to play him. .. but the same could be said for any champion that isn't flat out overpowered.

BUT, .. his kit is really simple. Lets run it down again. Passive = BE WITHIN 1400 UNITS OF SOMETHING THAT DIES! It doesn't have to be you that kills it. It doesn't even have to be someone on your team if it is a neutral monster! Q = auto attack reset. ... anyone who doesn't know how to use this properly, probably shouldn't be jungling because most good jungle champions have them. (Edit: I said this because I'm a jungler, and I think of him as a jungler) W = It's a massive ground targeted zone. Put it on the ground when you need to kill things, .. proceed to kill things. E = ground targeted, .. put it in choke points, block enemies from escaping or engaging. R = press R and click on the enemy with the most resistances, ... proceed to kill things.
