Can we stop nerfing for the sake of nerfing?

Udyr has not been a problem for the longest time. Heck...when Runeglaive was removed he lost damage. Luden's echo only pushes him towards the MS soft cap and has less of an effect than the 10% suggests.

Let alone here is another issue with nerfing the item.

Udyr...doesn't really care. He has 3 very viable building options, 4 if you consider Warrior's (which few do).

Nerfing the item doesn't affect Udyr in anyway except for having a placebo effect which we know the community is susceptible because changes are noted in the patches that sometimes don't go through, and we see winrates plummet anyway.

Just saying...the game is already in a rather unhealthy state. This is one of the times where Riot really should not do anything.

I dont think they are going to nerf Udyr.. at least not next patch. On the bright side, merc treads will be picked up again, and probably will be over swifties... Not sure why riot is nerfing swifties and buffin mercs in the same patch.. Why not just buff mercs and THEN see if swifties need to be nerfed.. But w.e

ChickenDyr is a toxic champ and always has been.

He ether can 1v1 you and you cant get away or if someone shows up or you can beat him 1v1 he runs and you never can catch him.

STUPID binary champ.

To be honest they have a history of nerfing the champ when only the item was really the problem.

I don't know one way or another if the champ needs nerfed as well, but honestly I'm glad they are hitting the item only first.

Udyr has not been a problem for a long time, but he is now. And nerfing the item clearly does hurt him. It is by far the best jungle item on udyr and the others will only be viable when it is nerfed.
