Udyr Jungle S11: all you need to know about one of the best junglers around! I present to you two builds, tank and bruiser to go up in elo!

Why Udyr?

Udyr is one of the best junglers in the game, although he doesn't have ultimate which could be a disadvantage in 5v5, but don't believe it! Here are all the strengths of the characters:

• The character's mobility is insane, unlike a Hecarim who has a limited-time speed boost, Udyr is going to be a fast champion at all times. He will therefore be able to temporize, chase, take information or even create space without any worry or risk taking.
• The champion's mobility will also make it much easier to dodge enemy spells.
• Udyr can 1v1 almost anyone, he has almost no counter. Be careful of Vayne or if Teemo blinds you your stun.
• Udyr's speed clear is ok, not the best but it is compensated by his speed of movement between the different jungle camps

How is Udyr played

Udyr may seem simple in appearance, but it is crucial that you fully understand how the character works. You have four spells, they all work the same way: an activation effect, and a passive effect. That is, if you press a spell, you will trigger the active effect and keep the passive effect permanently. The more you change spells, the more assets you will have cast. In addition, Udyr's base passive allows you to increase his movement and attack speed with each new active triggered for 5 seconds, stacking up to three times. To be fully optimized, you should therefore "at least" use an asset every four seconds. Here are the different postures of Udyr:

In a bruiser or a tank?

I show you two builds to manage Udyr well, and below some info to help you choose the type of Udyr. It is of course a guide, you are free to choose the one that suits you best!

• The build tank will rather be in utility, its goal will be to place your team in the best conditions to win. Avoid taking the kills and leave them to your allies. Be careful if these are not great, you will have more trouble carrying with this build. This build has a lot of resistance, tempo, map control and domination of the teamfight. You can opt for this version if you lack frontlane, or if you are not used to playing bruiser.
• The build bruiser will instead be a 1v1 killer, allowing you to easily knock out all your opponents. However, it will be less resistant in teamfight and you will be less at the initiative of the engagements. You can opt for this version if you want to carry solo, or if you are not used to tank playing.

Runes

Here are the runes to take:

Jungle Info

Three red potions, blue knife if you prefer speed or red for 1v1. You can also adapt according to the mobility of your opponents (red if little mobility, blue if a lot), trinket ward

Invade or not
Why not, on the other hand it requires to start with the posture of the bear which will be a little more complicated for the beginning of the jungle

Counter jungle or not
Yes, you can easily 1v1 anyone and be able to leave safely

Jungle Path
I recommend the red path, so that you can type the frog and the blue at the same time.
