Rumble is a versatile top lane champion who excels at harassing opponents and controlling teamfights. Here's the optimal build and strategy guide:

Core Build

  • First Item: Liandry's Torment
  • Boots: Sorcerer's Shoes
  • Core Items: Riftmaker, Zhonya's Hourglass, Cryptbloom, Rabadon's Deathcap

Runes

  • Primary: Arcane Comet, Nimbus Cloak, Absolute Focus, Scorch
  • Secondary: Bone Plating, Unflinching
  • Shards: Adaptive Force (x2), Health Scaling

Summoner Spells

  • Flash
  • Teleport

Skill Order Q > E > W

Key Tips

  • Manage your heat bar carefully to avoid overheating during trades
  • Use E for safe last-hitting when zoned away from minions
  • Only use W when necessary for trades or escapes
  • Maintain optimal heat levels (50-99) for enhanced ability effects

Strong Against

  • Udyr (57.5% WR)
  • Wukong (54.7% WR)
  • Vladimir (54.1% WR)
  • Kled (54.0% WR)
  • Yorick (53.6% WR)

Weak Against

  • Heimerdinger (40.6% WR)
  • Kennen (43.9% WR)
  • Cassiopeia (44.2% WR)
  • Tahm Kench (44.6% WR)
  • Aurora (45.1% WR)

Best Synergies

  • Bel'Veth (53.3% WR)
  • Diana (52.8% WR)
  • Briar (52.4% WR)
  • Amumu (52.2% WR)
  • Elise (51.8% WR)

Alternative Build For a different playstyle, build Hextech Rocketbelt first, followed by Sorcerer's Shoes and Liandry's Torment. Complete with Zhonya's Hourglass, Shadowflame, and Void Staff (51.3% WR).

Off-Meta Build Consider First Strike runes with Liandry's > Sorcerer's > Riftmaker core for a high-risk, high-reward playstyle (56.0% WR in 400 matches).
