Why are all Udyrs toxic counter junglers?

I try and avoid subjectivity, but I'm not even kidding when I say literally every single Udyr I've dealt with as a jungler fits the title. Generally the game plays out by me getting leashed for my blue or red, and then once my leashers leave, an Udyr seemingly comes out of nowhere and gets first blood off me then proceeds to steal my entire jungle for the rest of the game as I usually am not one to receive help for counter junglers. The game then turns into a stressful JG camp war rather than your typical gank oriented game being that I fall ridiculously behind in farm with the Udyr always killing me in the JG with little effort. So be it, Udyr is an irritating jungler to have to deal with. Though every single game with an Udyr, they always result to making taunting comments in /all as they know they completely dominate the game with little pressure by my team on making the JG a low risk high reward scenario for him. I try and be friendly to any players I play with or against, even Udyr, though I always seem to be targeted by Udyrs for rude, taunting comments despite that. Empirically, what is it about Udyrs that make them seemingly more toxic than any other JGler in league? Why can't they just take my camps and leave without leaving a jeering comment on the way out?

P.S: I know somebody will make a trollish comment regarding my name "Pro Yasuo" but beforehand I'd like to just say that it's an ironic name. I hardly even play Yasuo.

TL;DR: This far, all the Udyrs I've fought have been toxic counter junglers and I have no idea why.

Dang, I can't even comment on that Yasuo name. As an open Yasuo hater, I feel bummed.

If they are seemingly coming out of no where, you may want to consider more vision.

Every one has that one champ that makes them insta tilt.

It seems that your champ is udyr. You should probably consider permabanning him.

I feel the same way about kha and WW i will almost always perma ban one or the other Its not that they are OP i just tilt when i see them.

You should do the same

I'd consider this gamesmanship (possibly poor sportsmanship at worst) rather than toxicity. While I wouldn't do it myself, one could make an argument that taunting the enemy to make them more tilted is a beneficial move on his team's behalf.

All chat is an opt-in experience, so you choose the possibility of being taunted by the enemy team when you enable it. If you think Udrs are more likely to tilt you in chat then consider muting them pre-emptively in future - there's no reason not to.

If I remember correctly, warding the single brush that is in the river that is near midlane helps to spot an invade. Warding that spot as soon as you spawn in and run towards your buff helps spot the enemy because usually most early invaders (either before the buffs spawn or during laning phase) go along that route to get to your camps.

You're a Yasuo main, so you're probably not even a real person.
