How to beat Udyr

Common role: Jungle / Top

A stance-shifting bruiser with strong sustain and a point-click stun.

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.

Abilities & how to counter them

What each of Udyr's abilities does — and how to play around it.

• P
  Ponte Espiritual

  Udyr tem quatro Habilidades básicas que o fazem alternar entre Posturas e pode Reconjurar uma Habilidade para renová-la com efeitos adicionais na ultimate. Além disso, após usar uma Habilidade, os próximos dois Ataques de Udyr recebem Velocidade de Ataque.

  Strong: awakening a stance twice empowers it with bonus effects. Weak: he can only empower one stance at a time — read which he's committing to.

• Q
  Garra Selvagem

  Udyr recebe Velocidade de Ataque, e seus próximos dois Ataques causam Dano Físico adicional. Reconjuração: recebe ainda mais Velocidade de Ataque, e seus próximos dois Ataques conjuram relâmpagos no alvo.

  Strong: tiger stance stacks heavy damage-over-time. Weak: melee only — kite him and the DoT never applies.

• W
  Manto de Ferro

  Udyr recebe um Escudo e seus próximos dois Ataques o curam. Reconjuração: recebe um Escudo ainda maior e cura com base na Vida máxima pelos próximos segundos.

  Strong: turtle stance shields and sustains him through poke. Weak: Grievous Wounds guts its healing.

• E
  Investida Ardente

  Udyr recebe Velocidade de Movimento e causa Atordoamento em seu primeiro Ataque a cada alvo. Reconjuração: recebe ainda mais Velocidade de Movimento e imunidade a efeitos imobilizadores por alguns segundos.

  Strong: bear stance grants move speed and a point-blank stun to stick to you. Weak: he needs to reach you — save your dash for the stun.

• R
  Tempestade Alada

  Udyr cerca a si mesmo com uma tempestade glacial, causando dano e Lentidão a inimigos próximos. Reconjuração: fortalece e desencadeia a tempestade, fazendo com que ela siga inimigos e cause dano adicional.

  Strong: phoenix stance adds AoE burst around him in fights. Weak: short range — spacing keeps you out of the burn.

Itemization

Grievous Wounds and kiting tools win. Range, slows and disengage keep him off you; save mobility for his bear-stance stun.
