Trundle vs Graves Matchup Summary

The Trundle vs Graves matchup is a decisive matchup in League of Legends ranked play. Based on 10 recent matches analyzed, Trundle wins with a 60.0% win rate compared to Graves's 40.0%, giving Trundle a 20.0 percentage point advantage. Game phase dynamics play a critical role here: Trundle controls the early laning stage, but Graves outscales as the game goes longer. The matchup shifts dramatically depending on game length — Trundle needs to press advantages before Graves reaches their power spikes, while Graves should focus on safe farming and hitting key item breakpoints. The most significant statistical gap is in sustain, where Trundle leads by 760 HP/min — a difference that heavily influences the outcome of trades and skirmishes. Trundle players can confidently pick into Graves and play aggressively from level 1. Look to establish lane dominance early through favorable trades and zone Graves away from CS whenever possible. Understanding these matchup dynamics is essential for champion select decisions and in-game strategy when facing this lane opponent.

Damage
558Trundle
801Graves

Sustain
1,739Trundle

Trundle dominates the early game (first 15 minutes) with a commanding 80.0% win rate — a 60.0 percentage point lead over Graves. This lopsided early game means Trundle can dictate the pace of the lane from level 1, controlling trades, wave state, and river priority.

Graves is far superior in the late game (25+ minutes), boasting a 60.0% win rate — 20.0 points above Trundle. Extended games heavily favor Graves, whose kit and scaling make them a dominant force in team fights and objective control.

This matchup features a dramatic power shift: Trundle must aggressively press their early advantage and close out the game before Graves reaches their scaling breakpoints. If Graves survives the laning phase without falling too far behind, the matchup flips in their favor. Dragon and Rift Herald control are pivotal — the team that secures early objectives can snowball or buy time to scale.
