Is it just me that thinks that riot should give udyr a reworked look bc imo udyr looks like legit poop (not cussing) like if udyr was released today the spirit guard skin would be the classic or something similar. Imo udyr being ugly makes me not want to play this champ as much as I would like and some of u might say that I should just buy the skin then but I don't think the 3k+ rp price is worth it in other words riot PLZ do us a favor and change udyrs Classic skin
KaylaDaBamf1 votesSpirit Guard Udyr is certainly worth the price; I say Pulsefire Ezreal and DJ Sona aren't but Spirit Guard Udyr is like eight different skins, two for each stance. They probably spent years making it because unlike DJ Sona, they're not just changing the look of the ground beneath the champion, they had to make four different looks for four different stances, and then a secondary for each of the stances once they're maxed out, plus the way the spirit of whatever animal (bear, bird, turtle, tiger) rises up behind him is tedious work. Udyr looks kinda goofy in the way that he just waddles when he walks, but he's supposed to be a rugged, dirty, live-in-a-tent-in-the-forest-and-hunt-my-own-food kinda guy. I think his look suits his kit and his personality. Just my opinion though.
Rolllout1 votesExcept Udyr's lore was changed during the Frejlord patch a few years ago. He's no longer a wild man, he was found by Lee Sin and brought to his temple for training and to learn to master his anger. Spirit Guard Udyr is basically what Udyr's new lore says he is. Riot shouldn't have thrown all the extra flair into the skin and just made it a visual update. The new animations and the models for the MAX Forms should have just been there.
Plus, it's lackluster as an Ultimate Skin when it comes to the basics of what other champions have. Champions these days have special lines for buying certain items and animations when under certain effects. When hasted, new champions tend to have an animation that makes them look like they're running faster instead of their default run cycle sped up. When slowed, new champs have an animation where they're struggling to push forward, not just having their run cycle slowed down. SGU has neither of these.
