Things To Consider When Playing Against Dr Mundo

  • Be sure to take ignite when facing Dr. Mundo. Ignite significantly lowers Mundo’s health regeneration from his passive and ultimate.
  • If your team is not able to burst/damage Dr. Mundo when he activates on his ultimate, ignore him until his ultimate ends.
  • And, if Mundo plays jungle or roams, it is essential to dodge the first Cleaver to throw off his gank.
  • Also, if possible, try to slow him during chases and dodge his cleavers. If he lands more than 2 cleavers on you in a chase you won’t stand much of a chance against him.
  • Lastly, Liandry’s Torment and Blade of the Ruined King deal damage based on a target’s current and maximum health respectively, while Executioner’s Calling and Morellonomicon apply healing reductions. Work these items into your build to make yourself an effective Dr. Mundo counter.
