metalhydra273 says “Pops up now and then in the meta. Very dangerous with his damage, especially his ult. If you can help it don't take a fight where his ult will get your team wiped. He's a particularly good ult target as he doesn't have much to deal with it other than hoping he can survive the onslaught, but killing him off immediately in a team fight will do your team wonders. If there's a more important threat though, cc in general is just a good way to deal with him, just be wary of his damage output.”
LFS_aXent says “If this rumble is smart, he will perfect shield your fourth every damn time. He will harass with harpoon and flamethrower. Just play it cool, don't get too aggressive, because Rumble is very tough early game.”
McDank says “Avoid his poke and if he walks up to you with his fire thing just hit him with the auto->q->auto combo and you will win every trade. If you get caught in his ult just ult him back and you will heal through it.”
WiskeyANDGin says “high damage, u can outplay him with your ult, use it when he ults too to prevent you from getting slow an damage, after a maw or spirit he wont affect you so much”

Tips Against Rumble in Middle Lane Tips Provided by MOBAFire Guide Authors
LunarVortex says “He outdamages you and you cannot really kill him in a 1v1 at any point, but he is also a very easy Q target since he literally just runs at you. Try to match his push so you don't have to lasthit under tower.”
Ambitieux says “Rumble is one of the terrors of Ahri. His natural tankiness mixed with his shield allows almost all autos and poke to be negated against him. You MUST keep your distance against him even when charmed due to the spacing of his firebreath. If possible try to play safe until your mana item were you can nonstop poke him after and win. But if he gets ahead early you might as well just match his push and roam around. Most rumbles try to look for a push into a jungler invade or gank. Play the lane safe, try to get a jungler in contact but its not needed. Hide urself under tower until you can win the duels if not just roam around like usual.”
Eriosunx says “in 11.8 rumble mid is a TINY BIT OVERBUFFED not gonna lie eheh.
He can literally 100 0 from lv3 without items. Going verdant's barrier is a must! Otherwise he is gonna have permaprio and perma kill pressure.
CONQ+BONEPLATING and ELC+BONEPLATING combined with double mr and verdant's will give you a chanche.”
xMetix says “His shield has no cooldown his Q deals a ton and he's currently one of the strongest champs in the game. He does not have much mobility so if you can catch him too far out you might score a kill.”
Marky 2 Butts says “Lane bully and early will get lane priority and it is very easy for Rumble to push Malphite back to his tower as you are melee champ, you could farm with Q. ”
WayOfTheTempesst says “This matchup used to be a lot harder in previous seasons due to his Q having no cd and him being able to nonstop spam it on your face. It now has a 10 sec cd at lvl 1 so use this time to go on him and get a good trade on him. Your best time to go for an all in on him is when he is overheated but AFTER his Q runs out since he will only be able to auto attack you which you obviously will out damage him. Don't sit in his ulti and get some early MR if you struggle with his damage.”
crabbix says “He can surprise you with his damage early, but suffers from being a melee champ. Back off when he postures aggressively and poke whenever possible.”
Katawina52 says “Second Wind with Overgrowth and Dshield are needed. He will poke you out really obnoxiously and those items are the only counter strategy. Try to not lose too much hp early so dont look for trades really at all. Just play safe and regenerate up with dshield and your 2ndary runes. Look for jungler to fight with so you have a way more chance of winning. Only way to 1v1 a rumble is if you hard all in him, but I wouldn't suggest doing this unless his meter is low and if you have bork/ Verdant Barrier.”
WayOfTheTempesst says “I put Rumble as Major just bc he can be very annoying with his shield and just control the whole map and put you under tower early game. I would go Conq and dshield just bc I feel like its impossible to ever kill him with fleet. Go 2nd wind and revitalize to make up for lack of fleet. Do not fight him when he is overheated with Q on or he will melt you very fast.”
kindo says “Don't ever fight when he is overheating unless you have your ult up. Try trading with auto/q/auto but sideways - don't q into him or you'll likely get slowed and popped. Don't all in if he's above 50 heat, you'll get popped. His ult CD is ridiculously low, so he'll likely just push and roam to sidelanes like assassins - you can't follow unless you ult is off CD. Overall, he lacks any form of hard CC to his gank setup is pretty mediocre aside from his ult. Don't get caught off guard by overheat and trade when he walks up to melee minions.”
Akali187 says “A good rumble is hard to play against. He has range and has super strong AOE damage. He also has shields in his kit which takes a chunk of your damage away. Play with range and once you go in don't go out unless he is dead.”
Dj Memelord says “Do not play predator vs this. He perma shoves you and harassas you under turret, you cannot trade. Conq and phase rush are both viable here.”
Coldsong says “Rumble has some of the most damage over time in the entire game. Get out of his Q and R as fast as possible and make sure to dodge his E poke. Make sure to only go in on him if his W shield is on cooldown, and if you need it buy Serpent's Fang.”
Black Shadow QIYANA says “If you kill him lvl 3 should be easy if you play it right you poke first than go for all in otherwise if you die its game over for you”
Luciiid says “Rumble is a very weird pick in mid. He may seem tanky at first, but is actually really squishy. Look for really short trades and avoid trading until level 6, unless he gives a free trade to you.”
duhnx says “Second Wind, Revitalize and Doran's Shield are super good here. His burn deals half damage when you take them and he has a big hitbox and no mobility, punish it.”
Lot of Wind here says “Because of his shield and unblockable Q, he will be able to outdamage you in the early game and poke you in the early game with his E. You will have to rush MR if he goes pen, don't pick yasuo into rumble.”
Impossible2Gank says “He can just sit behind minion waves and burn away everything. You'll need to have some sort of lead to be able to kill him but you should just bait him in for your jungle to gank. Magic resist is recommended early.”
Hienaa says “All easy for being melee champs, not on tier 2 because they can all build seekers, and viego is just broken so it’s a little tricky to play vs him sometimes.”
nZk01 says “(Top) very easy pre 6 just try to always hard engage and you will win, especially with PTA, just care abt his ult and E Slow, would recommend Ignite/Barrier.
(Mid) just run him down and care about his jungler, would recommend ignite.”
DemonDiana says “Rumble pushes you throughout the laning phase and you want him to because his weakness is his immobility. You threaten him with jungle pressure and can't reliably solo kill him or farm safely. Post-6, you are a considerable threat to him bc your R keeps him where you want him and if he doesn't have flash, he's almost a free kill. Key thing to remember: Don't die, hug tower so that your jungler can gank you, you won't usually have great farm pre-6, but things will get better. Trying to solo-kill Rumble and overextend for CS will lose you the lane. ”
Doctor Yas says “A Yasuo player can play this match up 10 times and only win one out of the ten games with jungle help. Rumble beats Yasuo in every way early game. He has more DPS, a shield to counter your damage, and tons of wave control. Buy MR and be sure to ask for ganks as rumbles have no real form of escape. ”
JEAFlashSword says “Really annoying due to his flame (Q) you can windwall his Es and play around his Q CD when you want to all in him scepter vampiric will help you a lot against him”
nZk01 says “(Top) very easy pre 6 just try to always hard engage and you will win, especially with PTA, just care abt his ult and E Slow, would recommend Ignite/Barrier.
(Mid) just run him down and care about his jungler, would recommend ignite.”
BigFatCat909 says “I haven't versed a Rumble as Zed this entire season, but I assume you'd need to go Mercury Treads with Eclipse for this matchup, though Conquerer/Electrocute shouldn't matter too much and i personally believe that you should choose those off of the enemy teams team composition.”
Hiimkata says “Second Wind with Overgrowth and Dshield are needed. He will poke you out really obnoxiously and those items are the only counter strategy. Try to not lose too much hp early so dont look for trades really at all. Just play safe and regenerate up with dshield and your 2ndary runes. Look for jungler to fight with so you have a way more chance of winning. Only way to 1v1 a rumble is if you hard all in him, but I wouldn't suggest doing this unless his meter is low and if you have bork/ Verdant Barrier.”
KataTocDo says “Same as the Ryze matchup. Hard to solo kill, just farm with him, get jungler to come.
Runes: Conq-Dom or Elec. Prec.
Starting Items: Dark Seal or D Shield”
Elite500 says “This matchup is hard top, but easy mid, don't let him his you with his harpoon or you'll take massive nuclear damage, try play around his shield and his overheat meter”
invalidd says “If you know how the champion's heat bar works it's not an impossible matchup, his spells are enhanced when the bar's orange and he can only
use melee attacks when it's red, so you're looking to trade when it's not orange, your passive is very op in this matchup as well, the more levels he
gets the harder it gets to trade vs him because of his tankiness and shields. Easy to setup ganks on.
”
KASSAW1N says “Kass vs Rumble: Ten cuidado con su pockeo, lo mejor es que estes entre los minions y que cuando se quede silenciado por el excesivo uso de sus habilidades entras y sales rapido o si no sigues farmeando hasta que pase. (Ya que tanquea un poco puedes usar hielo eterno para ser mas de utilidad)
”
Dr Eggmund says “Lots of damage and poke is annoying however it is very easy to gank rumble so freeze wave and let you and your jungler work together to kill him. All in him at level 6 as behind his metal suit is a very squishy Yordle.”
Tortoise_Maniac says “- Rumble beats you in extended trades
- It's very hard for you to trade with him at all, especially after level 6
- Push with your Q and passive and try to roam/help your jungler
- You win most early 2v2's with your jungler vs Rumble”
Scyrine says “Don't try to trade with him completely before level 4, and just read when he uses his flamethrower and engage after he uses it. He's pretty much useless after that”
Chili Dog says “This matchup is hard top, but easy mid, don't let him his you with his harpoon or you'll take massive nuclear damage, try play around his shield and his overheat meter. Electrocute is recommended”
FalleN3 says “It's not very likely you will be up against a Rumble in midlane but it can happen. He has decent early damage and can hurt you a lot. You will need to take advantage of his heat-bar when he is silenced but be aware that his AA will be stronger during this time. He only deals AP so picking up a little MR might go a long way for you. Be sure to get out of his Ultimate as quickly as possible as it really hurts, especially when he has a few items.”
Sushi_Cat says “While this lane largely depends on the Rumble player, there are things to keep in mind. The main aspect to this matchup is to not underestimate Rumble's damage, especially if he has Electrocute. In addition, his ultimate does insane damage even if you get out of it quickly. ”
OxiteoMyst says “This matchup is actually quite fun, if he wants to trade just e-q-auto and phase rush out, you both have shields but if you don't let him get close to you, you win. His R is good at setting up ganks so watch out for that. Otherwise just poke him down.”
Elpatronchico says “Very hard counter because of his huge poke. You should wait for him to misstep, then try to kiil him. By Antitank against him like Kraken Slayer and Blade Of The Ruined King.”
Sadkid says “Rumble is not too bad so long as you stay out of his flamethrower range. This matchup is all about good micro and tethering his abilities. ”
WolfRider01 says “Rumble wins lane phase, and then outscales you if fed. Ask for ganks, take fleet. If top take TP. Avoid his passive empowered flame, then engage when his abilities are on cooldown. Be defensive, let him have lane priority.”
Best Azir Africa says “Play passive behind your minions and don't get caught out. His damage and burn are really tough to counter with azir so playing safe is the best bet.”
Elpatronchico says “Very hard mashups, you need to watch out for his Q and his E, which both poke you out.
Try to freeze under tower as much as you can and wait for him to do misstakes.”
FalleN3 says “It's not very likely you will be up against a Rumble in mid-lane but it can happen. He has decent early damage and can hurt you a lot. You will need to take advantage of his heat-bar when he is silenced but be aware that his AA will be stronger during this time. He only deals AP so picking up a little MR might go a long way for you. Be sure to get out of his Ultimate as quickly as possible as it really hurts, especially when he has a few items. After level 6 he should be much easier to deal with.”
fwii says “Start Corrupting Potion and farm while avoiding his E and Q poke. Don't force trades on him unless Jungler ganks. He has infinite Shields and sustain if he starts Doran's Shield. ”
bobatea says “Honestly his q is just busted and he will basically soak up your damage with his w shield so like just farm and stuff until a gank or something.”
Veralion says “Beads. Thank Christ Rumble isn’t a popular champion. This lane is aggravating, and more people are running it mid over top. Fleet and beads gives enough sustain to just farm it out evenly if you play smart, but you still can never afford to take double harpoon into a full flamespitter. The movement speed bonus from Fleet will get you out of his fire very quickly. Your E is slow enough that it gives him plenty of time to press W, so you can’t poke him. His Q makes going up for farm health intensive. You will take lots of little numbers of damage in this lane, and it's up to you to not take too many of them before your next Fleet proc becomes available. You can’t all in him 1v1 through his W and base stats before being E’d twice, ulted on, and roasted to death. Survive, concede farm if necessary, and don’t int. His range is very short and will force him to hang out extremely far forward for extended periods of time if he wants to deny you under turret. It’s up to your jungler to capitalize on that and even things out. ”
Grimkyle says “Rumble is a tank that does bullshit damage for a tank arguable has better roaming potential than has better wave clear I suggest you just farm up look for an opening to kill him with your jungler or try to level 2-3 cheese him with your triple dot( Ignite, W, corrupting pots)”
RikudouDovahkiin says “Rumble in the other hand, have a high chance against Vlad because of his damage is far greater than yours at almost every stage of the game (excluding late game) at 1v1. Try to play safe and do not get poked, he can easily dive and get out easily as he dived due to his tankiness from Zhonya and Abyssal Scepter and shield ability. If you can, do not play against him since Rumble provides a little bit more combo potential to his team. Without a well-thought team don't pick Vladimir against him in my opinion. Its a tactical disadvantage because teamfights is more important than 1v1 fights. Even if you win the lane he can create a chaotic atmosphere in teamfights.”
Defensivity1 says “should dodge vs rumble, this lane is very rumble favored but with ur jungeler at 6 you can kill him if you mananged to survive lane”
1256 says “very good earlygame, be careful and ask jungler for ganks, ulti is very strong for roams and drake skirmishes, you outscale ez
fleet+dom, electro if confident”
PepeOnDrugs says “It's not very likely you will be up against a Rumble in mid-lane but it can happen. He has decent early damage and can hurt you a lot. You will need to take advantage of his heat-bar when he is silenced but be aware that his AA will be stronger during this time. He only deals AP so picking up a little MR might go a long way for you. Be sure to get out of his Ultimate as quickly as possible as it really hurts, especially when he has a few items. After level 6 he should be much easier to deal with.
”
topal says “He is easy but you need to respect him. All in him when his passive is low or he is sclineced for a very favourable trade.You can all in him after level 3.”
Capparelli says “His damage is stupid and his shield allows him to make tons of mistakes, canopy cannot save you, look to roam, get a tiamat because you don't need hexdrinker unless you're fighting him and you should not be doing that”
serruh says “dont have much personal experience on the matchup, but rumble usually just takes 0 dmg so dont even bother using your precious mana on him early, he will also shove very fast and look for plays around the map so it all comes down to if they work or not. you outscale him hard and can out trade at 1 item.”
NebuIa says “He's pretty annoying. Just walks at you and Q's. Don't R over his ulti. However you shouldn't really die to him. If you need it, phase rush can help.”
DravensBukkake says “Ignite/TP.
AA harass him. He counters melee matchup, cannot lane verse ranged. He literally cannot touch you. AA him. AA him. W again, AA him. Did I mention you should auto him? Freelo matchup.
”
Garybaldo says “Stay safe, outscale, however try not to let him push you under turret, it is better to lose a lot of minions and not letting him push than the other way around, even if you do lose hard early game you outscale, don't fight under any circumstances, buy early mr if it gets hard or he gets kills, run Phase Rush to get away faster”
Noirubilac says “Use the Lane to avoid his poke, when he comes up to cs punish with grasp and flay.
(Freeze the wave if either Jungler is ganking top,
Gets Outscaled)”
Euphoric Toaster says “He has to get in flamespitter range to really do damage to you, so a pretty easy matchup since you just get an easier stun the closer he is. You can poke/harass him a lot early on and deny him a lot of CS too. Just BE CAREFUL of his burst with Ignite + Electrocute if he engages on you, it can catch a lot of people off guard.”
Vispectra says “Just don't fight this guy, he has an insane winrate midlane into most match-ups due to how oppressive he can be and how strong his teamfight is. He will win lane against you as his Q lasts longer than your shield and his own shield is enough to block most your damage early on. Later you can deal with him just be sure to not be the first to engage onto him.”
SepekuAW says “Basically impossible to kill. You have to farm this lane out until you get ludens and boots. He shouldn't be able to kill you either but he basically has lane prior the entire game.
He is easy to gank though.. once you hit 6 call your jungler for a gank, if your jungler falls behind and can't gank you are probably doomed as rumble is literally impossible to solo kill unless they are awful.
Stay behind minions to dodge his E harpoon and that's about all you can do in the matchup til you get ahead or items.”
IceCreamPaintJob says “let him push you in, theres really no other option. avoid taking trades when his q is up, and try to bait out his w shield by dashing in and then back out. rushing wits end is viable in this lane, but i would only advise this if they have another ap threat to worry about”
Jazzmonkey says “Rumble can be really annoying. Dodge his Q and try to dodge his E. Go Curroption potion and try to outsustain him. You don't really need to kill him just farm up. Go Second wind as your resolve rune and try to keep your farm up. You can easily kill him with your jungler at level 6 all the time.”
Jenkinsu says “Don't get close or else you will get roasted alive. If you can keep your distance and dodge the tazers then you win pretty easily. Be wary of his ult though, he can use the slow as a gap closer”

Tips Against Rumble in Top Lane Tips Provided by MOBAFire Guide Authors
I Am Goliath says “Rumble is a hard matchup early if the person is good, Try to E into him right as his flamethrower is running out so he can't use that to trade back, second item adaptive helm is also reccomended in this matchup, level 9+ this matchup gets a lot easier and you can take extended fights against him, try to hide in minion wave to dodge his E's and you can also make him push the wave if you stay in your minion wave when he Q's you. Start doran's shield and build early spectres cowl if you're struggling a lot in this matchup, because you should outscale him later.”
Feedaboi says “Has high dmg early on with his q and e. Look to poke him with q and setup a freeze if possible. If you see him waste his shield "w" look for trades when ur full combo is up. Go D shield in this lane so you don't get poked out early.”
PH45 says “He can just force you out of lane with his flamespitter and harpoons. Get some magic resist and after 6 you can just auto minions twice, then Q onto rumble and auto + W for a lot of burst damage. Merc treads are a solid in this matchup.”
Drake6401 says “While it's not hard to beat him in a fight, Rumble is hard to dominate in lane because of how safe he can farm from a distance and under tower. The only way to really deprive him of gold is killing him and he can counter this by playing extremely passively. Get some diving help from your jungle to make him miss waves that you crash.”
Stinkee says “He's going to shove you into tower a lot early game but he isn't very much of a threat. Get an Abyssal Mask to be able to sustain in lane and push the waves back to him. Rumble is extremely vulnerable to ganks so if you can, freezing is a good idea. You can easily just ult him when your jungle is near and he'll either have to flash or likely die.”
Rhoku says “TL;DR - SKILL MATCHUP IN YOUR FAVOR. DON’T EAT FREE POKE. LAND QS. EASIER AFTER LEVEL 3. RUSH SPECTRE’S COWL IF HE IS WINNING. PHASE RUSH/CONQUEROR BOTH GOOD.
Low Elo Rumble players are horrendously bad. So it should be an easy lane. You want to make sure that you don’t just stand in front of him and eat his full flamethrower combo. Don’t stand in his ultimate but try to land all of your Qs. Rumble will try to poke you down and then all in you to kill you when you are low enough. Keep yourself healthy with Doran’s shield, second wind and properly timed Qs. He is pretty immobile so if you are able to pull him, he is essentially dead unless he is under turret after you pop your ghost. Both Conqueror and Phase Rush work well into this lane.
A Rumble lane should be easy after Level 3 but if you are struggling, a Spectre’s Cowl will help you win the lane. Don’t even go for Merc Boots unless his team has good AP+CC. ”
BoilTheOil says “Take Conqueror or Hail of Blades. You kinda just E him off cooldown and hit him. His poke can get annoying but you can go Botrk and heal off his poke. Hope your team doesn't get 4 man ulted in teamfights.”
Sovereign Kitten says “Avoid Rumbles (E) spam with jukes and minion block and back off a bit when he rushes into your minions with his (Q) flamethrower. Buying some Magic Resistance will go a long way for you. You want to predict where he is going to throw down his ultimate and simply, don't run through it as it will deal a hefty amount of damage to you. You can walk around it if he angled it to not completely block you off, or you can flash it if you wish to avoid it completely. If he is overheated you can play more aggressively as his abilities will be down for a short duration, but he also gains increased basic attack damage, so make sure you don't let him on top of you.”
Justkb says “It can be difficult if you take a bad early trade. They usually take E first so try and farm within your wave. Look to poke with Q and once the wave is shoving you can run him down at level 3 once he uses W. He must use a lot of mana early to shove u in so try and capitalize on this and track his mana costs.”
Raen says “Annyoing with his insane high built-in dmg Q, stack some attack speed at minions at 1 level then try to all in him with E. Pay attetntion at his passive if he will overheat try to fight him then, he won't be able to deal you dmg. He will harass you all the time with his spells so get Doran shield and Sheen in lane.”
LoLReal says “Darius conventionally counters Rumble. Rumble wants close quarters, quick trades but can't against us. Get an early cowl and destroy him.”
Rhoku says “Don't eat a full proc of flamethrower from him for free. Don't get poked down too much. You win pre-6 but he can poke/play safe much better than you. Just be careful. A little bit of MR is nice but a blasting wand goes a long way in fights. Post-6, Ult him AFTER he uses his ultimate as this will remove it, letting you dominate him. Overall just don't eat too much poke and don't miss your abilities.”
Anoying bro5 says “Learn the timing of his fire and go in after it is completed. Its on a fairly low cool down so try to run out as fast as possible after doing your full combo. Parry his E to prevent his slow. lvl 6 you win as you can move out of his ult.”
iZeal says “Respect his early damage, but once you gain a couple of levels you can jump at him at any point since his Q is around the range of your Q1 and Q2E. His W movement speed is his only mobility so if you catch him without it he will have trouble escaping your W pull. Rumble will proceed to suck in sidelanes and is relegated to teamfights later on in the game while you can fulfill both roles.”
Phrxshn says “Avoid fighting Rumble if he has moderate to high heat. Do fight Rumble if he has maxed out heat since he cannot cast any abilities. Avoid staying in front of Rumble's Flamespitter(Q). Electro Harpoon(E) needs to be dodge if you want to make good trades. Avoid staying in his Equalizer(R) as it does damage overtime. (Sustained 1v1 Trades: Even) (Outscaling Edge: Even) (Recommended Items: Force of Nature, Spirit Visage) ”
Psychopathic Top says “
This is the classic triple beads lane. Rumble does ticks of AP damage so make sure to take the right runes (very very important in this matchup). Sustain is king vs Rumble. Do not walk up for cs, unless it is bait for him to shove the wave. In lane, walk in and run out, so he hard shoves the wave into you. Try to dodge his missiles, as those are dodgable and can take out a large amount of your hp. Post sheen level 6, all in and kill him through his R. Do not take extended fights with him, as you will lose on those. Commit to all ins to correct waves this way. Teamfights should be in your favor, and you outscale very hard.

SethPRG says “Watch his heat levels, and make trades when it's high. Sidestep to dodge his missiles and you will be a lot better off. Be careful of standing in his ult, I'd suggest ulting him away from it as it will really mess up your HP. If he ults your team in a team fight that's when you will want to engage with your ult as his team will instead focus you and his R will be wasted basically. Stridebreaker is good against his movement speed, but other Mythics could be built if his team comp requires it. Force of Nature or Gargoyle's Stoneplate are very good items to buy for this matchup, the movement speed and shield can match his late-game AP power spikes.”

PK Noob says “He is extremely slippery and annoying. Rumble will slowly drain your health bar and can chase you down if your low enough. Stay healthy, W or dash out of his Ultimate, and burst him when his skills are on CD.”
SavagePridestalker says “I think Rumble is pretty easy to fight, you can proc grasp procs very easily and his damage is very straightforward (his Q), which allows you to doubleW most of his damage. After you get Spirit Visage, it's super easy.”
WarwicksSimp says “Broken right now, no way to win lvl 4-5 at all, even at 6 and above he can still easily beat you in a 1v1 situation with elec/HoB as well as getting gw rush then going into rocketbelt/liandries and demolishing you with e q overheat. Sunfire or Gore.”
SettVEVO says “Currently really broken champ, the definition of a lane bully and if he is good he can just annoy you to death, runs away when you run to him and runs you down hard when you run away from him. You go D Shield and Second Wind on this one. It's all about landing your E on him. Avoid him when he's heated up, if you have some grit you can tank some Q damage while damaging him although he can W your damage. Just a really annoying matchup and not much you can do aside from the usual. If he ults you and he is near you can ult him to get out of it. Not that bad of an ult target in teamfights but not the best either.”
RealIreliaCarriesU says “He can be pretty annoying with his Q spam, start E and play passive until it pushes into your tower. Look for fights with passive stacked once it bounces back and pushes towards him. As long as you land your E you should be fine to all in him. Do not commit if you miss anything as he is impossible to run away from and he will kill you. After 6 it is a little easier as he is fairly immobile and has a large hitbox. Open up with ult (granted you have passive stacked) and all in him. Landing your E should be fairly simple and common knowledge but don’t sit in his ult, use low hp minions to get out of it if you feel like you will lose.”
xPetu says “Recommended: Standard Runes & Teleport
Tips: W is best used if he overheats, because it blocks his empowered AAs. Passive shield his Q and E poke whenever possible. Immediately E away from his R.”
quinn adc says “I put the matchup as hard because to inexperienced Quinn players, Rumble will bully you quite heavily. However, when you learn the matchup I place it at medium difficulty.
First, understand how Rumble's passive works. When Rumble's heat is above 50 (over half), his abilities are empowered, which means all of his abilities and their effects will be 50% stronger.
However, if Rumble's bar becomes RED, then he will be silenced for 6 seconds, but his auto attacks will be stronger if this is the case.
If Rumble ever goes red, then hit him with a nuke because he will be rendered useless for 6 seconds since he is a melee champ who cannot use abilities.
Now, if Rumble is yellow, play back because his Q will burn you alive. How to win the rumble matchup is to WAIT for Rumble to Q the wave.
As an ADC top laner, we can control the wave with our AAs only, and so we can push if needed without using abilities. Other champs like rumble must use their abilities if they want to match our push to freeze the wave, so he will use his Q quite often to push the wave and harrass.
Rumble Q is 600 range, so play extra fat back because it outranges your auto attack range. Save your abilities (though you can Q the wave if needed, just save vault always).
When Rumble Q is Down, INSANTLY go for a huge trade on him and proc your PTA as well. You can weave Q and your autos, along with E for a big, big trade. Rumble only has his harpoons up, which don't do much damage when his flamespitter is down. Keep mimicking this, and you will find that you will hard win the trades.
Post 6 is scary, but just make sure not to take dumb trades because he often can't 100-0 you in lane. He'll need to poke you down first, and then finish you with his R all in combo. But, if you play the lane like I suggested (stay back, wait for him to Q wave, then engage after Q is down), he won't be able to get you low ever enough to combo you.
Play confident, and his Es are sidesteppable, especially with your harrier proc MS too.
I don't like building hexdrinker early, but if you need to, then run along with it.
Nul orb is critical in this matchup.”
RTO says “Pretty annoying matchup. Can't really trade with him at all unless he over heats. Still only a short window though. You will outscale him in a 1v1 as soon as you finish your 1st item. So once done, all in him as much as possible. ”
LiL Bunnie FuFuu says “Rumble has tons of aoe magic damage, decent mobility, and strong range. Avoid trading when his flamespitter is up and focus on becoming tanky as possible/setting up ganks. His ult is better than your ult and does way more damage than you'd expect.”
TXK_ says “Avoid his Q by farming from range and avoid his E by staying behind minions. You win late fights and your ult will either guarantee a won 1v1 or prevent a team killing R.”
Boptimus says “Definitely not easy. I've tried Tank and AD into Rumble and i've found AD works best. Don't take unnecessary damage and grab as much CS as you can.”
DarkyTheReal says “Rumble is very weak this season, you want to cheese him level 1, if you can't cheese him just get level 2 first and trade him with E+auto+q+auto+q+auto+q+auto, and you're going to be ahead. Level 6 careful about his ult, try to dodge it with your E, and you win the all-in.”
The Rock Titan says “"[PTA Q > W] - This is one of your worst match ups... There is literally nothing you can do against him
- You max Q but he just shields it all the time... If you try to melee him, he can kite you off.
- Only way to get some trades in is if he used his flame spitter to clear wave while some creeps are alive to block his slow and you can Q him, run at him and W and E him.
- This is why I try taking PTA and Maxing Q, you can actually get some good trades in this way
- Ask for jungle ganks, since he has his lane pushed in..."”
YasTilt says “Really annoying Matchup, take Magic Resist and Block his W's with your WindWall. Don't take Trades with him when his Passive is Half Stacked and wait for him to OverHeat.”
SaltCat says “You win level 1 with passive, level 2 also, level 3 you lose if you are the same hp, the early game is kinda hard but later you can easily kill him, use your Q to go out of his R”
Fryx says “You can't do much against Rumble in the early stages of the game. But once you have Ult it looks different. Just Ult him and Dodge his Ult afterwards. You will actually see a good trade. Rumble is easily gankable so make use of that by keeping your wave at a good spot. Don't try to get too much cs early it will cost you way too much hp”
tibs2 says “Pain.
D shield optional take second wind. You never win trades, he turbo outranges you so if hes not a robot you cant q him. Just hope your jungler shows you mercy and ganks this tumor of a champion. D shield optional take second wind.”
Sporkintahn says “ANNOYING!!! --- Don't stand in front of him and eat the entirety of Flamespitter (Q) as will deal tons of damage to you, especially when he's high on Heat (His Passive). --- You want to play back off of your minions and avoid his Harpoons (E). --- Make short trades with Q and punish his mistakes. --- If you can close the gap on him and all-in him you can beat him most of the time. Use your Ghost to kite him. --- DO NOT FIGHT in his Ultimate!!!”
Noodles912 says “Farm behind and away from minions and you will be fine. Get as much cs as possible. At level 6, use pool to dodge his R. Outscale him for free LP.”
MachDawn says “You just need to play it safe and go in with full stacks here. Ideally you will probably want CHONK or NORMAL irelia. He isnt dangerous if you play safe and back.”
SanLourdes says “Rumble's main damage tool is his flamethrower which he will abuse in the laning phase. Punish his pushes with your Q and back off afterwards so that he can't utilize the damage from it. His ultimate also deals a huge chunk of damage. Other than that, Rumble has no dashes to dodge your ult and your Q and no way to stop you you from charging it as well.”
Urgodzilla says “AP-version of Poppy: just presses one button over and over on cooldown. Be patient and outscale him. Get magic resist if he gives you a hard time.”
teemodumbstupid says “You won't win early because of his passive, but you win when you have Sheen and Lucidity boots. You can bait his Q if you walk up to him and then run which can push the wave towards you. Then you can freeze and wait for your jungler to gank.”
Tsundere Tahm says “Aun no entiendo como jugarle a esto XDDD, recomiendo jugar pasivo y bajo torre. Tradeale cuando este sobrecalentado y no pueda usar el lanzallamas.”
negoZoma69 says “Used to be a minior threat but got overbuffed so now he can oneshot you at level 3/6 if you're not careful. He has crazy waveclear so let him push, dodge his E and trade after his shield expires.”
Draconic56 says “Don't eat a full proc of flamethrower from him for free. Don't get poked down too much. You win pre-6 but he can poke much better than you. Just be careful. A little bit of MR is nice but a blasting wand goes a long way in fights. Post-6, Ult him after he uses his ultimate as this will remove it, letting you dominate him. Overall just don't eat too much poke and don't miss your abilities.”
Amvill says “Can and will fight you early; will most likely win. His poke and teamfight potential make him a strong counter. Your lucky he isn't played often. ”
pioj12 says “Very strong early game play passive until 6 to try to all in and just in case ask jg for help.
He is also buff so he has a lot of damage watch out with that.
”
MrShykun says “MATCHUP SKILLED EN VOTRE AVANTAGE. EVITEZ DE VOUS FAIRE POKE. VOUS POUVEZ RUSH MANTEAU DU SPECTRE SI IL GAGNE PRENEZ CONQUEROR. Essayez de lui tourner autour pour ne pas vous prendre tout les dégâts du lance flamme ne restez pas dans son ult également il a des dégâts monstrueux. Son gameplay sera de tout simplement vous poke et vous terminer avec un all in. Prenez bouclier de doran et second souffle et toucher le plus de Q que possible si vous le touchez avec le E lorsqu'il est avancé sur la lane vous devriez pouvoir le chasser et le tuer . Ne prenez pas de mercures juste pour rumble ou uniquement si sa team possède beaucoup de cc”
Alan234 says “Go dorans shield+grasp/domination. Literally only matchup with dorans. Try and farm, dodge his e and trade after he uses w. His q outdamages you so youre a bit stuck. Get ruby and nullmagic and just hope that your team is better or that you can get a better position a teamfight.”
Rime101 says “Start Dshield
Rumble also has huge early game waveclear making it hard for kennen to CS.
Being AP kennen is weak against him since Kennen has 30 base MR the whole game.
I recommend taking double MR stat rune vs rumble to avoid solo dying early game.
Max Q and play the lane far back, farm w/ q’s etc.
Play the lane far back you lose trades very easily and you dont really win all ins early
You win the lane when you have 3 items, play safe until then and look for TP plays bot. Look to 1v1 when you have 3+ items”
GrGamingTeo says “Rumble is secret OP because he slows you, pokes you and eventually kills you. Take Phase Rush and walk away once it activates. Rush Hexdrinker on this matchup.”
Ravenborne says “Do not let him poke you down with his Q. Step out of the flamethrower if he uses it for the wave. Watch out for his ult when you are at his tower. Get Specters Cowl to automatically win lane.”
SpyDaFX says “if he is a good rumble, you will lose all trades, ask for ganks, rush merc treads into tiamat into Spear of Shojin into hexdrinker, then u can trade with him and maybe all in. try to roam because he's very immobile. go for doran's shield and go Conqueror.
if he's a bad rumble, you can pretty much kill him before level 6 and get a lead, but he's still difficult. just try to rush merc treads and tiamat before looking to big all ins.”
MarkFromSingedMains says “Rumble hits hard but is too immobile to out-roam you, hard shove him and roam as much as possible, you'll outscale. As of 10.18 his Q does more damage, so you'll likely be in a shove-war with him.”
ModelitoTime says “Take notice of the bar under his health bar, when charged all the way up he will just abuse his Q *which is the fire* and it does alot of damage. You wanna start backing up when casts his Q and right when its done engage with your E because he will not be able to casts abilities for a little while since his passive silences him”
kingchas2 says “His early base dmg is incredibly high, but as long as you play safe early he won't be able to build much of a lead. His ultimate is team-fight deciding, so your team has to play around it and not clump. Other than that, once you are 6 you should be able to just kite and kill him pretty easily. ”
LoLReal says “Pretty easy lane. We out trade and all points. Early cowl is helpful here. Our ult takes away his R, wait til he casts equalizer to use our ult for that reason.”
aurus666lol says “New two masks are powerful, but he still is so rare. He is more viable on mid for roaming with Predator than on top with comet. I think you can kill him easly, just do not get hitted by his E.”
lulw says “Does a lot of dmg. Don't fight him unless you poke him enough pre 6. Cancer to lane against. His flamethrower will burn you irl I swear you can feel it. ”
Raideru says “Very hard to kill a good rumble, only way u can kill him is if he wastes his w or q while he's very close to you so u can just jump on him do a short trade and walk away without being hit by his e. After 6 u easily win fights.”
LeSocair says “Dodge harpoons and build early MR, it gets really hard if you don't. His fire will mess you up every time, just try not to get too low on hp. He'll shield your Q almost all the time so don't rly bother.”
TioKirb says “Don't go against him in early, I recommend to just play safe and try to pick some kills elsewhere in midgame, this matchup can get really hard if the Rumble knows what he's doing.”
sauronkaiser says “I would even say Yorick counters this guy. He can be AIDS in the first levels with his flamethrower, but once you trap him with all hp hes fucked.”
EU_Toxicity says “Easy to play against if you manage to stay high health. Stay behind the wave so he's forced to push if he wants to poke and you'll also be safe from his E. Get Spectre's cowl if you're struggling to not get poked.”
iZeal says “Rumble has the upper hand early game and if Darius dies early he is going to have a bad time. However, at level 6 Darius' ultimate is much more reliable than Rumble's Equalizer in a duel since you can't step out of a point-and-click ult as well as Darius will have a big enough health pool to not get annihilated and at the same time enough damage to not have to endure another flamespitter rotation. Darius will easily outscale Rumble in a 1v1, but make sure to not fight in choke points or else your team gets murdered by well placed Rumble ults.
DShield/RejuBeads, Mercs, Phage/Spectre's Cowl, later on Adaptive Helm”
AWierdShoe says “It’s hard to position the blade up in this match-up since he’ll burn you for it, but try best you can if he gives you chances. The only times you can trade are level 2+ when he’s just used his Q to farm or poke. If you’re not already lower than him at that point you can taunt in and go for a 3 quick empowered Q’s and then backing out. He’s one of the best champions at trading back while you’re running out though, so you need to make sure you do enough damage to him initially for it to be worth taking the damage while disengaging. The best way to kill him is honestly to ask for a gank, rumble has a really hard time surviving them, since he perma-pushes and has no movement ability.
”
I Am Goliath says “Hard matchup since he does so much damage and usually rushes a Liandry's torment, try to rush spirit visage and merc treads in this matchup. Try to dodge his harpoons as much as you can becaose the damage from those can add up. Also always pay attention to his overheat bar and make sure if you go for an all in he is going to overheat, basically punish him if he uses too many abilities for farming or poking you.”
TrinityForceYasuo says “Respect level 1 try to be safe and stay healthy do not greed for the minions and take harass for them. Level 3 and after let him use his Q and then its a good chance to win for a trade, dont forget to block his E and the trades should be pretty clean. Bait his R by going in and out. Fake it that you try to all-in and in cases W to try and catch you so he can harass after its done chase him the fuck down and kill him. So play around his cooldowns overall and u should be winning every single trade.”
Scoothare says “Scary guy, noone knows what he does. When his "mana bar" turns red, engage. He is silenced for a few seconds. Make use of those moments to guarantee a winning trade.”
Saarlichenbog says “The worst matchup into Kalista by far goes to Rumble. With some of the worst amour stats, until Rumble gets a Zhonyas on him he basically gets one shot by literally any AD champion, regardless if they are an assassin. To compensate, he has an insane amount of burst, but no consistent damage and the current season 11 items feel even worse on him than the season 10 items did. Rumble has no laning phase essentially out of mediocre poke in his E, a non-existent "sustain" shield in his W and a passive that leaves him wide open to be exploited by champs with mobility to take advantage of that period, and Kalista is one of them. Kalista should always win this matchup with Rumble having no real mobility outside of his W "speed boost" and plenty of weaknesses that Kalista thrives on. For all you Rumble players out there, dodging in champ select when there is a Kalista is your best option at saving LP.”
Captain Dantems says “Fique atras dos minions para ele não acertar o E e cuidado com o Q dele, pois dá muito dano. Grasp com chamuscar, inspiração ou conqueror. Poção corrupta.”
aiSky says “Kled is a great option dealing with squishy champions thanks to his damage and movility, so it should be easy to play against them and get some kills.
If they poke you too much, you can always start with Doran Shield and still kill them without much trouble.”
arekij says “Kill him at firsts levels because with time Rumble is more dangerous. In mid game don't try to kill him if you are not fed enough. Better go help mid or bot lane.”
joelspaho121 says “Easy lane.d shield start with sorcery tree.Try to fight rumble when his burn is down because that way he simply deals way less damage and he cant match your damage in extended fights.because he is immobile he is forced to take all of the damage from your combo without being able to dodge anything so that immediately means you win the lane.keeping a neutral wave is the best option because he can farm from afar with his e.”
TangoVallhala says “This champ is just annyoing, he can full run you down with just his Q, avoid his Q and wait till he his overheated, then full combo him, avoid his other skill shots and it shouldn't be too hard.”
A2Tap says “Rumble will poke you off of the first wave, try to poke him after level two as he has no W yet. Try to take long, extended trades with Rumble as he has to care for his overheat meter.”
qasddsa says “Skill matchup. Rush a Wit's End, dodge his harpoons, and try your best to stay out of his flame, especially when his resource bar is higher than 50. One of the best times to all in is when his bar is fully red and going down and no ability is active.”
ERNESTSAURUS says “FLEET FOOTWORK SETUP - DORANS SHIELD / 3 REJUVENATION BEADS + POT =
Rumble matchup is all about survival in laning phase, he has a lot of poke with his E and Q, and the Movement Speed of his W is really annoying to deal with, but Nasus W counters it completely. In laning phase look to dodge his E by farming behind your minions. Since he will try to poke you out of lane, Rumble will usually try to poke you with Q and by that the wave will always be on your side of your lane. Once you hit lvl 6, Sheen and some MR items you can all in him pretty easily but its overall better to wait until his Heat bar is full since it will disable his abilities and the empowered autoattacks are no match for Nasus Auto Attack + Q spam Combo. Later on into the game, you will outscale him and I highly recommend splitpushing since his R deals a lot of damage which Nasus can tank but your backline can't they will burn to death, so to prevent this, splitpush and drag him with you since he will also not be able to solo match you, be prepared for 1v2 scenarios and look to have vision around to prevent that.”
SubHuman Filth says “Rumble is impossible matchup
GO grasp, second wind, taste of blood with a Dorans shield on top.
Then you can survive his poke.
You can also go aery 3 points q and fight back, but i dont recommend it.
you wont outscale either, but you can try to roam around and make your team win, because rumble dosent push fast.”
Grayified says “Lethal Tempo Runes and Build. Ignite + Flash or Ghost + Flash. Dorans shield potion start. Rumble has very strong pressure on Tryndamere early game, but will struggle heavily in duels later in the game. You want to farm in this matchup early. After level 4, tryndamere can look for opportunities to trade with rumble. What you want to be looking for is his heat bar. When his heat bar is in the yellow he is gaining 50% bonus effectiveness on his abilities (more dmg from his flame, more shield, more slow and damage on harpoon.) If Rumble overheats (goes all the way into the red on his heat bar) you can look for a trade if you are high on hp or if rumble goes too low on his heat bar (has barely any heat and is not close to yellow.) Post level 6 Tryndamere gets his ulti which will allow him more spots to beat up on Rumble, but a good rumble player will know how to keep tryndamere too low to look for an allin. If the enemy team has a lot of slows, swifty boots are a great option for sticking onto rumble in the 1v1 because of his big slows on his harpoons and ultimate. If you feel like you are sticking onto the rumble pretty well though you can just run berzerker greaves. If enemy team is heavy magic damage then merc treads is also a good option. Tryndamere outscales rumble in the mid-late game heavily in the 1v1, rumble's only hope is to hug turret and try to kite out a dive or to group with his team and force a play before Tryndamere can pressure.”
I Am Goliath says “Most rumbles aren't very good so you should be able to pressure him, although if he does get a lead somehow this lane is going to be a nightmare since your auto range is about his flamethrower range, just keep poking him though and kiting with Q and you should win since rumble is pretty weak early on.”
Nabura says “Bait him into using Q so it pushes the wave into you. Collect your free CS. Only way he gets ahead is during skirmishes where he gets really good ults.”
EntxRecoil says “Lethal Tempo Runes and Build. Ignite + Flash or Ghost + Flash. Dorans shield potion start.

Darrkescru says “Runa : Aery . Grasp
não troca com ele você não vai conseguir matar ele exceto se ele trolar forte, joga pro late que ele não escala bem
Rushar : Liandry's”
Swaim says “Rumble could be a nightmare or a stomp depending on how you play. Avoid his level 1 Q- Flamespitter poke and don’t fight before level 3. After that fighting him is pretty straight forward: Land your Q- The Darkin Blade's and your W- Infernal Chains and you should be able to kill him easily. Again, Adaptive Helm isn't really needed as Spirit Visage is a way better item on Aatrox. Second Wind could be needed if you're having trouble fighting Rumble.
”
ZergDood says “Conqueror is viable here. Rush adaptive helm, give up CS if neccessary, he pokes hard. Really hard, so, don't feel bad if you're missing CS, your life is more valuable. Engage on him when he's about to overheat. Try poking him, but remember that minions are your priority. ”
qazx1427 says “Since his flamethrower is AoE damage, it doesn't hurt the ghouls as much as you'd expect. He's a pain to deal with given all the slows and speed boosts, but if you can lock him down a couple of times, he's not so bad. No-one plays Rumble anyway.”
Ayanleh says “Try to ult him right after he uses his ultimate and it will remove his ultimate and get you into death realm where you can 1v1 him easier as you stole his stats.”
wallobear53 says “While laning, keep a close look at his Resource bar and try not to fight him when it is half-filled. He will be trying to keep it within the half-filled mark so see if you can make him overheat so that he isn’t able to cast some spells for a while.
Use the lane minions to avoid Rumble’s E slow as that is the main way he can get close to you pre-six. When combined with his W and Q, he can do a lot of burst damage in a very short time so be careful about this.
Rumble’s level six is his major power spike as he will now be able to cut your escape routes and evade/set up ganks quite easily. Make it a point to maintain your distance from him and just poke him from range if possible. Keeping a track on the enemy Jungler is important as well.
”
ModxLoL says “Start Doran's shield. Rumble usually won't walk up pre-6. Once you get your R though, it's usually pretty easy to kill him with a staggered E, R, 3rd Q like most matchups.”
Gangplank_Main1 says “Runes: Grasp, Demolish, Second Wind, Overgrowth, Biscuits, Time Warp Tonic, Double Adaptive, Magic Resist.
Start of lane passive auto minion for grasp, can leash.
What to get on first back: Dorans blade
This match up is hard for gangplank since rumble can just freely harass you and constantly slow you down. Pay attention to what rumble starts level one. If rumble starts q then auto the minions as much as possible to contest level two. When rumble has q start, his flamespitter won’t be up for 10 seconds so you can q rumble twice. If rumble were to start w then you can win the lane by just pushing. The goal here is whoever can get level two first. A good tip against rumble is whenever you q rumble and he shields the , you have a one second window to q rumble again since his w has a 6 second cooldown. Rumble basically beats gangplank laning phase up until you have 3 items. Once gangplank has 3 items you just stomp rumble. Rumble can teamfight just as well compared to gangplank so what you want to do is hold him in the split so he can’t get game winning ultimates.
”
9690 says “D-Blade. You can't really all in once she gets 6, she can ult you under tower and get a free kill. The only time you can all in really is level 2 when you have ignite to secure the kill or are way ahead of her. Her aftershock and ability to root you early on ruins any chance of all-ining. Also watch out for her jungler, her gank setup is amazing. Outscales you. Take Conq and cleanse”

BloodyDream81 says “Respecte le jusqu'à ton niveau 3 en évitant un maximum de prendre les dégâts de ses sorts, et sache qu'en all in pur tu gagnes en 100%, une fois niveau 3 tu cherches idéalement à le trainer sur la lane avec ton fantôme et à le tuer si il est trop avancer ! Prendre rush phasique facilite bien la lane !
Astuce : Prendre le manteau spectrale tôt dans la partie te protègeras de ses dégâts et te permettra de le tuer plus sereinement.”
Darrkescru says “Você vai dar literalmente 0 de dano no seu poke, o poke dele + o lança chamas vai te matar, para você ganhar desta lane use impeto + orbe anulador, e farm safe ate o lvl 6 depois disto faz ele gastar o lança chamas atoa pisar em um cogumelo e assim vai caitando ele, não recomendo trocar contra ele na lane phase que a maioria das vezes ele vai te dar mais dano tankar com seu escudo e te deixar low ”
bakk0n says “One of Mordekaiser's hard counters. Try your best to avoid his E harpoon poke and try to stay away from his flamethrower W. Use his overheat moments to E+Q+AA him to proc Phase Rush and your passive.”

Alzeidx says “Play safe in early, trade only when he is overheated and you are full rage, they you will be able to outrade him.
Be careful in early trades, try to stay safe and farm.”
Sq_09 says “He can match your kiting a bit and his Q does a ton of damage without slowing him down. Pretty hard if he wants to fight you. If he hits a good R, he can kill you. You are able to poke him a bit tho if he doesn't get an opportunity to E you. ”
Gwndimi says “This man hurts us, we are OS material for him. try not to take trades keep up the farm if he builds magic pen early dont try building MR it wont work just build the healing items DO NOT FIGHT HIM if he hits one slow on you you are most likely dead”
Itreallyhim says “He will be annoying early mid and lategame. His shield and sticking power is brutal, You can remove his Ult with yours, Play smart and do long trades.”
AkenoSenpai says “Not much to say about Rumble really, just all in him by jumping to a close minion -> Q into ur reset once he get out ur AA range or mark is about to dissapear then continue orbwalking till he is out of range again to Q him once again. ”
lugzinho says “The high damage this guy has with his flamethrower and his E is really good.
And that shield that gives MS with such a low cooldown of 6 seconds can save his life.
Go D.Shield and rush Hexdrinker.”
ForgottenProject says “One of the harder matchups for Fiora if its Higher Elo
You win level 1 and 2 but you still can get bullied if you’re not experienced

Use your ult movement speed to get out of his ult.
First item vampiric scepter is good into him
Start Doran’s Blade ”
Pedrokis says “Só o dano por segundo dele por causa do lança-chamas é chato, mas de resto é uma lane muito fácil de se jogar. / Você consegue bater muito nele, só isso. / Se ele pegar move speed com o W e você acertar o seu W pra ir pra cima, tenta ao máximo dar seus Qs pra ele não fugir, daí você consegue dar bastante dano.”
Big Belly Bop says “Keep an eye out for his overheat and play around it, he can't cast abilities when he's RED so it's good to get some autos off while he's cooling off. Abuse your range advantage and try to force him out of lane. If he ever decides to all in you just E out and W for the root to get some autos off. Flash + TP, Doran's Blade + 1 HP, Sustain rune page.”
ExfIamed says “As long as you survive the first outing and get some magic resistance and then start poking him down you're okay but don't fight him if you're below 40% hp cause everything he has is a slow and does insane damage, but poke him down and flash q ignite ult just like any cancerous matchup.”
9690 says “Pretty easy lane. We out trade and all points. Early cowl is helpful here. Our ult takes away his R, wait til he casts equalizer to use our ult for that reason.”
Loevely says “One of my personal worst matchups. I struggle vs Rumble quite a bit. Grasp and second wind make it a lot easier, but at the end of the day he's a lane bully that outbullies you. Be cautious. ”
Defensivity1 says “Be carefull of his flamethrower before level 6, once you hit level 6 you cage him up with your w spawn the maiden and get a free kill. but before level 6 he does have a lot of poke damage and shielding to negate your damage the conqueror page is recommended.”
mightydylan101 says “You can out trade rumble if you make the trades short. Be sure to q auto and then back off or else he wins the trade. Even if it looks like you didn't win the trade with a maxed E your poison will win it for you once you back off.”
ProgettoYorick says “rumble is discreet as an opponent, do not get hit too many times or he will begin to take advantage of you. When you have level 3 you can do a little something but trust me wait for level 6, with full life it will go down instantly, you just have to close it will not have an escape video except for the flash.
Advice from OTP: if you have locked him up after level 6 be VERY careful about his R, they will be damages not to be underestimated”
Karnan says “Respect his early levels, the flamespitter can burn you hard with comet if you don't pay attention. Easily ganked and suffers hard from jungle pressure. Build a lead early and start denying. ”
AlienMV says “Play around his Q range, and be ready to dodge his E.
You should be able to keep a safe distance and play around his CD in order to CS safely.”
CrimsonAngel1 says “Whats with these AP champs? Anyway, This guy is hard to deal with. To counter him, buy 3 items. Adaptive helm, Doran's shield, And a corrupting potion. Good luck in lane.”
Ornn Hub says “In my opinion, killing a Rumble is complex for Ornn as it is highly protected, making it difficult to use the ram's abilities, so opt for an abyssal Mask, enhanced by its passive.”
Hamstertamer says “Obnoxious poke, but low sustained damage so you can all-in him at 6. Take advantage of his Q cooldown and his high heat bar. Adaptive helm makes him a saad yordle.”
Atlascrower says “A difficult Matchup. His Q is very annoying as Melee, early, you have to stay on Distance. Farming is possible with Q+E, but it costs everytime much Mana. His R is very strong against you, except you have flash. Dont get slowed by his E, the Combo-Damage with the slow will harass you fast. You will need to use GP´s W often, which costs much Mana.”
AsomeSonic says “get adaptive, he's very damaging, with rumble if you wanna win the trade you gotta stay there, be committed in trades and kill him with maybe a sheen or ad items”
EpicDan01 says “Rumble has very high damage in lane, so don't fight him. I would recommend rushing Spirit Visage. Once you have Visage + Sunfire you can kill him, but make sure not to stand in his R.”
Aizo says “Extremely difficult matchup because his Q does not reduce your passive CD, and his standard build path directly counters maokai's going for High Penetration and HP burn.”
PhoenixianSlayer says “He has really good following speed and high damage. He can spam poke as fast as or even faster than you, so he can bully you right out of lane.”
Jnewbringspain says “Rumble is not hard if you can avoid his Flame Spitter and Electro Harpoon. Play it safe until level 6 + Sheen. Start doing the trick where you basic attack a minion twice, then Leap Strike, auto, W him for a good chunk of health.”
messketchup says “Play agressive with Q and pull whenever possible. Try not to push the lane, and keep river warded. rumble might be easy to solo but his ult does work when a jungler comes to gank for him. ”
Devitt45 says “You can very easily win this match up. If you can get on top of Rumble you can easily kill him because he doesn't have much disengage unless he has Rylais. The best time to fight Rumble is when he is overheating, and can only auto attack.”
Jnewbringspain says “Dangerous at a distance and even more dangerous close range. He's an AP caster so your W has no effect. Keep track of his passive overheat system. Above 50% all of his attacks are enhanced, so avoid engaging at all during this time. I wouldn't try to fight him as his flamethrower just has too much damage for you to overcome.”
Lil Tidepod says “Rumble is not really a huge threat to you. He can end up doing a lot of damage but he can't sustain lots of abilities for too long or he'll overheat. He can be really strong if he gets a few items. His ultimate will do a lot of damage, and it might be hard to hit your Q on him. Overall, just build some Magic Resist and push the lane. If he's not fed, you should be able to bully him.”
ImpossibleLogic says “While he has received some recent buffs, he is still rather weak. Rumble can sustain himself but he has no all in and can't really stop you from setting your Q E combos. He has some evade but if you land W and Q's, you win.”
mlgn4ever says “If he's any good at. his champion he legits abuses you level 1-2 and get's you're HP to less than 50%. Just play really safe. Sacrafice you're CS in order to not int and wait for your jungler and lose gracefully.”
DrMoneybags says “I find Rumble to be very easy to abuse early with ignite. His Q cooldown is actually quite high at the first few levels, and he has no way to peel you off. If he ever overheats, its an easy kill for you. You're able to dash out of his ultimate pretty easily, and he has no escape if your jungler comes top. Consider taking Nullifying Orb as a rune to survive his AP damage. If you somehow do poorly in lane, grab an early hexdrinker.”
Big Boy Matty D says “Difficult to get on him pre-6, use your passive shield wisely and try to farm as well as you can. Post 6 there's nothing he can do to stop you clapping him.”
thundergiraffe says “his ult is too long range, he resists your poke and returns it. he is not the best.
also he can ult you from down town, and since you are so easy to gank that can be a huge problem. since like he ults, you slow jungler ganks and ur ******(clucked).”
TheNinjaRoid says “You get ahead, you win. You fall behind at all, you lose hard. Ask for ganks, if you think you can win the trade. Do not fight him alone, he will win every time. Do not take extended trades with him alone. Watch out for his ult.”
ElleryTheViking says “Not a bad match-up by any standard. Pre 3, if he uses his fire, just run up Q and E. He'll try turn and run taking his fire with him meaning he can't damage you all the while you Q spam him. Post 6 just use your usual ghost ult all in. Just don't fight in his ult. ”
Fr3shLemonade says “Ban him you just can't play against rumble : he counter your poke with his shield he deals more dmg than you and lvl 6 he will explode you.”
SynergyXO says “Dodge his rockets, dont stand in fire trying to farm. and try to dodge his ult with spin as soon as it starts coming down. skill match up”
Samas says “The only blockable ability of his is autoattacks which is not where most of his damage comes from. You will often find yourself getting harrassed, by his harpoons, and when you jump in to trade he will use his flamethrower which in most cases should win him the trade. Stand behind minions to avoid his skillshot based poke, dont push because he can set up ganks easily with his ultimate. Wait until his flamethorwer is down then trade. Only use your Q if neccessary, since he has many slows and gapclosers can be invaluable escape tools in matchups like that, keep track of his rage bar, he cant use any abilities when its full. Try to set up ganks and punish his lack of escapes.”
E61K says “Doran's Shield + Second Wind. Respect his early game. Sit back at Level 1-2 and farm safely. At 3 you can step up more. He is immobile so he can't escape from you. Phase Rush can work against him but he will most likely buy a Seeker's Armguard on his first back and maybe even Tabis as well. Therfore I recommend going for Conqueror. Ghost heavily recommended. The best moment to fight him is when he overheats since he can't use any abilities to kite you/fight you. If you struggle against him "Spectre's Cowl" makes for an excellent early purchase against him.”
SwiftOblivion says “Strengths: Poke, Sustained Damage, AP. Weaknesses: Low mobility, Squishy early, Out-scaled. Has strong early game poke. If you avoid most of his poke you should be okay. Let the wave shove into you early as his waveclear is much greater than yours before you get Tiamat. Focus on CS-ing and Q pokes when his Flamespitter and Shield are down. Once you engage you must commit because rumble is put into an advantage when his opponents are running away because of his slow allowing him to catch up and proceeding to burn you to a crisp. Once you hit 6 and see an opening, you know what to do. Also, take Corrupting Potion in this matchup.”
Pancaku says “General lane bully and will not give you a single ounce of CS without damaging you. Added to the fact that he has a shield and slow you will be in for the worst lane of your life.”
Sion says “He can kill you, but you can't kill him.
Having said that, though. If you play safe and never let him kill you, you can just sit back, farm, and roam.
You can win all mid-game fights given that you engage on his backline because he can't block you or peel for them.”
lxl1Mago1lxl says “He can still deal more damage than you in early. Every minion you try to last hit , Rumble will be there with his flamethrower ready for heat your front. Play carefully and try to bring him into your [W]”
Trixelkour says “Fairly easy lane. Take Grasp with Exhasut and you have an easy laning phase. Phase Rush is optional. Rush Adaptive into Tabi's and you can easily duel him. ”
SirDeRp25 says “Rumble is able to OUTRADE Teemo in many cases, Wit's End is a viable first item in this lane. Trade when his Q is on CDR, Low on Energy. Note that he can trade you when he is overcharged. DO NOT FIGHT HIS MELEE IF HE REACHES OVERHEAT!”
E61K says “Rare match-up. It depends on how good the rumble is TBH. If he keeps overheating like an idiot abuse it and trade with him. If he is good at keeping himself in the danger zone be careful of stepping up to him. His base damage is good and he hurts a lot. Adaptive Helmet is a very strong item against him next to MAW.”
Omega best says “Rumble is stronger than you. Rush an hexdrinker then play very safe and wait for ganks, build mr and never rush toward him or he will for sure kill you.”
Zachlikespizza says “If he keeps denying you cs use your q and w to farm and maybe other casts of q to poke. Overall he'll be annoying but really unable to kill you.”
Mouadyam says “no escapes, should be fine, just dont get poked to death with his Q, use your ghost when you're going for an all in as he can slow you, and start with a dorans shield.”
Demon Lord AC0 says “He is annoying, and deals a bunch of damage. If you can avoid it you'll be fine. You can solo kill him after Bork. Rush bork and mercury treads, hexdrinker if he goes full AP. You can Windwall his E”
joelblack says “Pretty booty. The only way he can hurt you is if literally walks towards you, which lets you poke the shit out of him. Marksman is pretty good against him because you'll be able to kill him before he can even reach you, but Titan is also pretty good, your pick. If you really wanna ruin his day, Ignite/Exhaust will let you completely stomp him in lane, making him useless to his team. ”
Ashnard says “Rumble is immobile and has a large hitbox that makes it easy to combo him down. However he has high enough early dps that can rival your own that you have to respect. Don't walk up to him without q or you will get roasted pretty hard”
RitoPLsnerfirelia says “This pussy of a champ will just q you out of lane
Farm under tower, build early damage (rageblade) then Dominate this squishy hoe ”
thedunkening111 says “He's annoying, sure, like a lot of matchups, but you win by outfighting the little man. Avoid his poke, respect him a bit, and win short trades where you can get your full burst off. That'll get him into lethal.
Take Conqueror”
Thoir says “Rumble is just an annoying champ, he will deny you some farm at level 1 until he pushes the wave under tower. Then you can punish him when his Q goes off.”
