Gwen vs Dr. Mundo Counter Pick
Matchup Summary
What the Data Means
Health is Dr. Mundo’s whole plan, and it is exactly what A Thousand Cuts charges him for. Gwen’s attacks deal bonus magic damage based on the target’s health and heal her for a portion of it, which turns his 2,391 at level 18 from a wall into a resource. Over 972 games of top lane play on patch 16.13.1 the matchup returns 56.2% for Gwen.
Mundo has real answers and all of them are slow. Infected Bonesaw deals damage based on current health and slows, Maximum Dosage instantly heals a percentage of his missing health before regenerating more over its duration, and Goes Where He Pleases lets him resist the first immobilising effect at the cost of health and a dropped cannister. None of that stops percentage damage, and Hallowed Mist forces him to step inside her mist to land Blunt Force Trauma at 125 range against her 150.
Numbers worth knowing before the first trade: Gwen opens at 620 health and 39 armor against 640 and 32, and reaches 2,575 at level 18 to his 2,391. Mundo uses no resource, so he never runs dry, but he pays health for his kit while Gwen heals off hers. Both are listed as mixed damage and both rate 5 for difficulty, so sustain settles it. Profiles: Gwen and Dr. Mundo.
