Omnistone Trundle (Arcane Comet)

I've been playing a bunch of Trundle Top with Omnistone lately, since he can make use of basically all the Keystones. I say basically all of them, because Arcane Comet can only be procced by his ultimate and not any of his basic spells. This makes it a dead rune in 95% of all cases you get it, especially pre lvl 6. This can be very easily fixed. Either change Trundle so his E/Q can proc AC, or use the same system that is being used for Aftershock on AC as well, checking wether you have LEARNED a BASIC ABILITY that can proc it. This is likely an oversight, due to not having a basic ability that can proc AC being a trait that is possibly unique to Trundle, but it's also very annoying. Would love to see a fix in the next patch, or maybe even a hotfix.

I think E can use arcane comet? It does 1 damage which qualifies it for a damaging spell I think.

If not it prob should.

He can use all of them, but none of them particularly well. Grasp and PTA are his best runes by far and even those options feel lackluster.

The latest Omnistone changes I think will be a big boost though, but it's not the rune really that's the problem, Trundle's Kit is just outdated and should be the next to be reworked. Think about it... Volibear was a champion considered so simple and one dimensional. He had a lack luster kit, tried to run at you and hopes he catches you and tried to kill you if you're foolish to stay in his domain. You can take those same characteristics and put Trundle in front of them and it's the same. Looking into Trundle's lore, it describes him as a hulking, regen monster, with devious and mischievous skills. He either tried to outsmart you or beat you. But he also wields a magical weapon that never melts and gives off an "aura" of cold. How he got such a weapon though was from stealing it. Trundle also has this characteristic to challenge those around him 1 on 1.

An interesting mechanic I would love to see is his 'w' be replaced with a point click challenge feature, where target allows trundle to gain movement speed and attack speed while within certain range of and moving towards target. While the target is challenged, you need to get 3 auto attacks off where True Ice is then applied to the targets body and a chunk of damage is applied. With this proc, the attack speed persists for a few more seconds. The chuck the target lost is then regen to trundle over time.

To make this work, his passive will have to be changed to something that reacts to True Ice applying or proc.

Just like in the lore when Trundle returned with the magical weapon, he caved in the chieftain’s face. His q ability could resemble that where he slams down his club, the area left behind slows enemies.

His e would change to him hurting himself but gaining bonus armor, magic resist, and movement to regen health lost over 10 seconds.

Ultimate would apply an area of affect slow around the target, it wouldn't slow the target. If the target gets a certain distance away, or 10 seconds go by, the ring implodes dealing damage and creates a terrain of ice slowing all enemies. Trundle would steal the targets HP only.

Having it disabled would be awesome. I feel like he'd be a good Omnistone user, because like you said, he's ok with most keystones but there is none that suits him like Klepto suited ez for example.

Fun fact, Trundle is the only champion in the entire game that cannot proc Comet with his basic spells. I'm pretty sure Riot took for granted anyone could easily proc Comet but not our boy ;(
