Really good objective control which can allow him to stop relying on his team and get his team ahead on his own terms. He can take early dragons with ease, without getting too low.
His Ultimate R allows him to gain an immense amount of dueling potential which can allow him to go for high priority targets with ease, and then get out without dying.
His E can allow him to both set-up as well as follow up on ganks with ease. This is extremely advantageous when he has a Support who has a lot of crowd control in their kit.
Extremely reliant on teammates to pull off successful ganks which may sometimes force him to power farm and be ineffective during the early game.
Although his Ultimate R can allow him to steal stats, he is still weak without items and can be shut down early on if the enemy Jungler or laner manages to kill him once or twice.
He can be easily kited by ranged carries once his W has been used up. This either forces him to back off or die, if Trundle happens to overextend without any followup from his team.

In the jungle, focus on getting level 3 as quickly as you can. Your Q will be really useful during duels, so use it properly.
Fighting around chokepoints can allow you to separate enemies from their teammates. Your W and E should let you block the enemy and run them down.
Neutral objectives need to be secured by you constantly. You are really good at doing so; hence make sure you try to secure some of the other objectives after a gank.

Peeling for your carries in the late-game team fights is essential to increase your team's chances of winning the fight. If they die at the beginning, you will not be able to win the fight alone.
Do not get picked off during this phase of the game, as you will end up losing crucial objectives if you do so. Stick with your team and rely on picks to make team fights uneven.
Focus the nearest enemy champion to your carries and work as a team to take down the enemy one by one. If you focus on the backline alone, you may be an easy target for the enemy and may die quickly. By focusing on the nearest champion, you will survive for longer and keep your carries alive.
