Like with all tanks you have to rely on your team to back you up on engagements and put out a good chunk of damage themselves, but if they're ahead and you're on Maokai it should be an easy win.

Maokai is also ridiculously tanky. Some fights I find it truly game winning while people are rattling off abilities and I'm recovering about 10% of my health per 1-2 auto attacks. For this reason, and because he has the joint highest base attack speed you should always run attack speed marks on Mao, it makes you literally win auto-attack fights with bruisers in top lane
