My thoughts exactly on Udyr. Ive been playing this game for 4 years and I still havnt seen an udyr not farm all game and not gank and not help his team. What I have been seeing a lot is

Dieing at dragon solo using teleport for no reason other then to get closer to krugs or blue. getting a very low win rate very low KDA no damage tanked for the teams Chat commands they use words like this "Stfu worry about your lane" "Im not gonna stop farming" "Im gonna open up the gates" an ally has been slain

Udyr is just not what he needs to be with a champion with great utility in terms of mobility and freedom stats I like to call it. Why are people playing him like this. You cant be the next trick2g their is only one. And believe me fighting the npc's and pretending this game is pve sound like a terrible choice from a gamer. you should just go play harvest moon or WoW if you want to grind that hard or Farmville on face book what you guys think?

TL:DR Udyr needs to be changed.

He's just retard-proof and annoying as all hell to play against because there's not intelligent decision making involved in playing him.

A chimpanzee could play Udyr better than most of the people I see pick him.

MasterYi Nasus Udyr are notorious for splitpushing.

While the rest of the team is teamfighting, they are farming lanes nonstop and getting insane cs and soaking up a shitload of xp. By the time they decide to teamfight they are 3 levels above the entire enemy team and have full build, so stop crying.

Im concerned about just being a team you can split push and help your team why don't they.

This is really late for this post but... Not every Udyr player is like that, I personally play Udyr with the all-farm tactic when I have a team that I can rely on to not lose lane horribly.

There are a few different types of junglers: gank junglers, which rely on their earlygame to gank and get a lead for them and their laners, tank junglers, which gank much less often and have less reliable ganks than gank junglers in exchange for tankiness and lategame, mage junglers, which honestly I don't know much about, and farm junglers, which farm as much as possible throughout the game in order to get a gold advantage. This doesn't mean an Udyr should never gank, he should gank at least as much to help counter the enemy junglers ganks.

Udyr as a champion is horrible in teamfights compared to most other champions, and should never be picked if your team has weak teamfights and/or no engage. If you build tanky then you're basically just a stun-bot and if you build damage you're more than likely going to be a glass cannon with lifesteal in the middle of all the action is, AKA the area where all AoE abilities are likely to be thrown, skillshots need to pass through, etc. Not to mention that his only engage is to run face first towards the enemy team in bear stance while praying they don't have any CC to stop you.

His strengths are in his jungle control and split pushing. Lots of people see Trick and think, "He did pretty well in that game, and was flashy/cocky doing it. Sounds like I should learn to play like that!" And they try, and fail because they don't know things like that swapping between Tiger and Turtle is the most reliable way to take dragon (Level 4, 5 minutes and 45 seconds is my normal dragon goal) or that you NEED to stun people whenever possible in 90% of situations. Many will think Tiger = insane damage, Turtle = unkillable, Bear = perma-stun, and Phoenix = massive AoE, but don't realize that they are just auto-attack buffs and rely on rotation between them in order to be effective.

TLDR: He CAN have insane split-pushing and 1v1, but loses almost everything in a teamfight and is reliant on teammates doing well enough to let him stay and farm in his jungle. There's a reason why is difficulty is 7/10.

Udyr, Volibear and Nasus. I'll get flak for this, but I think all three are just conceptually stupid. I don't understand why Riot wants tanks with high damage values to work. They prove to be nothing but annoying, and are incredibly binary.
