Udyr Seriously Needs A Nerf Till Rework. This Champion's Gameplay Doesn't Fit His Theme. (READ)

His role is not defined as a tank yet he is tanky. He melts people with Auto attacks he's not an Adc. He Bursts people yet he's not a mage or an Assassin. He does all of these at the same time. His whole kit revolves around switching around animal spirits. You guessed it right, his name is Udyr.

Thematically, this champion should give the player a different feeling when they activate each stance, as of now, all udyr feels like is a wild monster.

As udyr is now, the different forms he has doesn't feel like you are using an animals spirit, just one wild monster that lacks any weakness. You would think that if you went from tiger to turtle from you would slow down and gain armor. In reality, when you change to turtle form you gain speed and lifesteal. It totally ignores the draw backs of switching the spirit of an animal it only gives him the benefits and not the weakness.

Each form should have trade off for the situation that he is in. These examples aren't the best examples but things like this should be included. His passive Monkey's agility should allow him to run through minions. This doesn't even need an explanation. In Turtle you would trade speed for armor. In Tiger you would trade damage for attack and movement speed. In Bear you would trade attack speed for damage. Phoenix you would trade AD for AP. As udyr, you switch forms depending on the obstacle you are trying to tackle. Not in an attempt to become the perfect being.

Right now, every experience with a player who knows how to play udyr is cancer. When you play against this champion you should be able to see what you did wrong and what he did right, see if you made a mistake, and feel if you played it better you could have had a chance at winning the fight against him. As he is now he's just a high speed mess running at you having no counter play and you can't fight back. The person fighting udyr shouldn't feel helpless watching their hp be melted, and their only option being that once they see udyr to run away.

When played to his max potential, udyr is op by the way he breaks counterplay mechanics in the game.

The recent build I see running around is , , With this champion switching forms every half second you cannot escape him or fight back because the duration you are stunned you are dead. You were killed by a turtle running 100mph punching you to death. If you are tank, all that makes you is a punching bag. If you play udyr and get top you get solo xp and if you crush your lane, enjoy the rest of the game diving towers without consequence winning one sided fights as well as soloing baron. You don't even need top just play the regular jungle role.

Sure, this build leaves you slightly squishy, but udyr is naturally tanky, skilled players keep their farm up, and when they get fed they are much higher leveled then anyone else in the game giving them better stats over the opponent. This build can be bad for team fighting because he is not built tanky and if everyone focuses him he should die even if he takes two people with him. But you have to remember udyr has his own team. With their own levels, and their own CC.

Udyr mains, and Trick2G fans will probably think that this is stupid as well as the rest of the league community for being a rather underplayed champion but these are valid points. No matter what side you are on, you can see that what this champion is thematically doesn't give the player that feeling.
