My Reaction to Trundle's Rise in Popularity...

Lol I totally forgot about this scene. I haven't seen the first one in ages. It is probably more forum-friendly an example than the source.

He can lose 1v1s but it really depends on managing his cooldowns and mana in laning phase (which got nerfed).

He makes a potential counter to Nasus and Riven, but in my experience they can easily out-trade and duel him if he ever has the slightest give in laning.

These nerfs aren't really a big deal and they make a lot of sense. It compensates for the change to black cleaver ages ago and the later" marksman" item changes. The usual trundle build I run that has and as core items always reduced his ult cd to nearly nothing.

I don't understand the pillar nerfs though.

I agree with you on the ult, but I will always miss the legendary and literal turret-eating power he once had.

His Q no longer implies the trolls of Runeterra have teeth of diamonds just like the Disc.
