What makes Udyr dangerous
Udyr cycles four stances — a damage-over-time claw (Q), a defensive shield (W), a bear stance that grants move speed and a point-blank stun (E), and a phoenix AoE burst (R). Awakening a stance twice empowers it. He sticks to a target, stuns them and grinds them down with sustain.
How to play against Udyr
- 1Kite his bear stance — he needs to reach you to stun, so use range and slows.
- 2Bring Grievous Wounds; his turtle stance sustains him through trades.
- 3He has no ranged threat — poke him down before he closes the gap.
- 4Save your dash/Flash for his stun; once E is used you have a window.
Weaknesses to exploit
- ✓Limited gap-close outside of bear move speed — kite him.
- ✓Grievous Wounds cripples his turtle sustain.
- ✓No ranged poke; he must commit to reach you.
- ✓Predictable stun timing you can juke.
