Farewell Udyr

Tanqueray No10··3 votes·798 views

Finally riot achieved to force udyr out of meta. 2 nerfs in row. Wow.

i tell you whats going to happen with this op nerf.

you re going to have %50 or lower hp after you get blue. And eventually they will know they should jump on you at lvl 2.

you wont be counterjungling with +25 damage phoenix stance. Probably you re gonna get killed by a lvl 3 xin who has %70 hp.

We are going to sacrifice great amount of tankiness if we want to make this damage nerf up.

For example. I start with devourer. Then i go guinsoo if my team is ahead. Then i go deadman, spirit visage and i buy zz rot in most of the games. Well if we want to have the same amount of damage we must buy a nashor's tooth or wits end.

and that means my genious riot workers UDYR WILL BE F.CKED IN LATE.

Bec i tried so many times playing with just 2 tank items and 3 damage items. Results were not good.

AND even if you go like this. Still you re gonna have one of the weakest early game. So you wont be completing the build i say.

you f.cked this beautiful champ.

if you wanted to make him slower in the jungle, why u didnt just limit "damage to minions and monsters"

This is the worst nerf off all time. Wtf i supposed to do with 25 damage phoenix stance?

Congratulations on killing one of the best champs in this game. And fu all.

Good. I'm against champions being unviable. Yet I'd LOVE to not see Udyr ever again. There's no interaction when playing against him. He runs you down, stuns you, runs in circles around you and you're dead. It's not only boring to play against, but it's poor design from an era of champions that are being reworked every 3-6 months. He needs an update to make his playstyle way less linear. Otherwise, he'll always be broken by virtue of new masteries, new items and whatever else he can abuse to stay relevant.

Using Synergy is not abusing. And its not that simple to play udyr if u re a serious player.

Udyr is easy to kite and sucks hard against heavy cc teams. So he deserves his close combat advantage if he can get close to them.

While there is 5 click 5 kill champs like khazix Its so stupid to nerf udyr.

Udyr was nerfed because at the time, he'd get Runic Echoes, Trinity, Swifty Boots w/ Alacrity and whatever else. You COULDN'T kite him because with Bear Form, he'd run you down at something like 550 movement speed. There's a reason Udyr players zip around the map splitpushing and running into the enemy base to draw attention. Because they knew they'd never get caught.

And in addition to that, he'd still be able to kill you. Heck, he can still do this. It creates a situation where he picks when to fight you and when it's suddenly not in his favor, he's gone.

Allright you can dodge some skillshots like lux q blitz q or thresh hook. But it still depends on your talent. And the caster's talent.

And his e is not that strong while there is no other gap closing skills. We should nerf hecarim's e too if we say you re right.

Let's just ignore the fact that Hecarim's E has almost three times the cooldown compared to Udyr's E.
