As someone who enjoys old udyr, I agree with the stances being abilities point. Old Udyr, for league of legends, is kind of like a long sword of a champion, very simple, but also versatile. You can go Full AD or AS, you can go bruiser, you can go rank, hell you can play him as an ap assassin, but the new one is so focused on his passive that the riot devs shorted his stances

The Udyr rework reminds me of the first time I played Nunu after his. It was a complete redo of a character's fantasy to make them feel how they are presented in lore. I'm starting to wonder if this is just a "Frejord" thing since no other rework has done this for me, but Udyr is, so far, one of my favorite reworks to date. Next to maybe Fiddle, Nunu, and Galio, I think this is one of the better ones. Definitely better than Kayle's, that's for sure lmao.

As an Udyr main I must say, all of Udyr's skins and visuals look amazing, the colour consistency is a little weird but they all still look great. His gameplay looks really enjoyable and seems to add a whole new level of skill expression, though lane Udyr does seem a little worse now cause you have to constantly spam stances making his sustain much worst in terms of mana, not to mention the scalings could use some tuning. And there are some more gripes i have with his animations and his literal bare back, but overall they did a great job.

I have an idea for the stances, like a mini awakened stance, Every 3 autos While Q and W are is active, you gain the same effect as old ones, E can stay the same But R, can be every third auto he ganes A storm that last for like a second, it appears and deals 2 tics of damage Just my thoughts tho

1:20 holy shit I chocked with that hahahah Mordekaiser dragging you to Brazil will never get old

While I agree that the loss of stances is a sad thing I can understand why Riot did this. As already said it doesnt matter in the jg but as a laner the stance thing is conceptually really broken since it means that the windows to abuse Udyr would be very small (if he was ever to become a good laner). This means (theoratically) that he can be allowed to be a solid laner

I love your editing man. Literally the first 1:30 minutes It felt like an entire video went by with funny editing and quips and I was delighted to see that I still had 17:14 minutes left.

I'd say the greatest advantage Riot had with the Udyr rework is a great starting point and clear direction. His lore was cannon, his visual idea was already present for everybody as a rugged, mid-aged brawler shaman, and a playstyle so iconic and usable, they didn't need much direction with that either (and don't go down on me with how difficult was this and that - I get that, but atleast they could skip some thinking regarding what his abilities should be). But next - I fear what they will do with Skarner who has absolutely nothing going on.

his passive is related to the Seal Sister though, the way he Awakens his stances is strongly indicated to be the blessing she granted him after that shitty ass meal he ate

i really do hope riot swaps the colors on tiger and bear for spirit guard udyr

Nicky showing Ronnie Coleman in his montage of powerlifters right after saying that bodybuilders don't reach the same level of strength as powerlifting is one of many reasons why Ronnie remains the king.

One thing they could do to fix the issue with his "stances" not actually being stances is to re-use the old udyr's Bear cooldown mechanic. Old Udyr (Although new Udyr's Ram stance might also do this) use to have a per-champion internal cooldown on his stun. He could stun any number of times he wanted, up to the number of champions on the enemy team he could hit, but no one person could get stunned more than once every several seconds. I think they should do something like this with ALL of his abilities. Alter his 2-hit passive to instead active his current stance's on-hit effect whenever he attacks a champion, up to *once* per champion globally. That is to say, not once per stance per champion, but once *per champion* period. Because if you just have each stance's effect be its own separate cooldown, you loop right back around to the same core problem with the false stance design: There is no actual choice being made. The only question you have to consider is whether or not you've gotten your current stance's value or not. if you have, you switch, if not, get it fool! This is true with New Udyr, and would remain true with this suggested change if his stance's on-hit cooldowns were independant. Instead, make them more powerful, and make the cooldown very short. Probably 2 seconds, maybe 3. Alternatively, make it auto-attack based, such that its every Xth auto against the same champion. I prefer the cooldown being in raw seconds, however, because it keeps it consistent throughout the game and encourages him to share the love instead of focusing down a single target- thereby maintaining the push in the Bruiser/Tank direction. Could have each attack lower the cooldown by a tiny bit, but not a whole lot, to ensure that a raw AD assassin setup is still competitive. This way, the question an Udyr player must ask themselves is not "Have I got my two attacks with this stance over with so I can switch to a new one for more value?" but rather "Which Stance would be optimal *right now*?". The difference is sort of subtle, but the key is that with the first question, the answer is NEVER "My current stance." Because you can't get value out of a stance you're already in unless you're using the Awakening effect, which is very much its own little thing and not particularly attached to the decision (Which, by the way, is a good mechanic which also asks the latter question. Again because it's a single "shared" cooldown between all its possible effects). With the second question, the answer CAN just be "My current stance". And due to the way the champion works, it'll never *always* be the right decision. Sometimes you'll need waveclear, sometimes you need healing and to not die, sometimes you need to run away, sometimes you need just that little bit more single-target DPS to take down an objective or, well, a single target. Forcing an Udyr player to make that decision every few seconds is exactly what old Udyr did, and Old udyr did occasionally sit in a stance for several seconds just because its passive effect was more valuable than the switch at that particular moment. But current udyr doesn't have that. He has no passive effects. In a weird way, Udyr who was THE champion all about switching between passive effects with a bit of a boost between swaps, became a champion who *literally has no passive effects*. EVERYTHING he does requires pushing a button, even his "passive".

If each stance at least had a STAT increase to make it feel different like attack speed, Omni vamp, move speed, and attack range I would be content, also to give him a seal sister passive just add after 3 hits, regain mana, speaking of 3 hits, boosts the ability effect from 2 to 3 because it further increases his first passive decrease while also helping the stance portion I just talked about have more value if you decrease your passive more with even one stance. I made a Reddit post about this but linking it would be kinda shitty, since it’d be riding off a successful KZreadr…

personally, even though i could never get into old udyr's gameplay because of the clunkiness and i much preffer how smooth the new one feels, i agree that there should be something that happens in a stance beyond 2 empowered aa, maybe voli stance could give you a attack spee buff as long as you're in it, boar stance could give you half the on-hit healing and life steal it gives on the first 2 hits, ornn stance could give you additional movement speed as long as you're in it, anivia stance could give you a mini nashor's while you're in it however personally i don't think anivia an ornn stance need that much additional stuff as voli and boar, who do literally nothing after 2 aa another idea that would probably be easier to implement is that while you are in a stance, besides the first 2 aa, your aa slightly cut the cooldown for the stance you are in, so if you continue being in a stance after the main effect run out, you can stay in it to get it back quicker, that in itself would be a massive buff to voli stance, which feels the most underwhelming rn, as the bonus attack speed it gives you would mean you could get the stance back faster than any other

The fact that the stances don't have permanent "every 3 auto attacks" passives doesn't really bother me, since I play him in the jungle and there you're already swapping through your stances constantly. Although, I feel like only 2 auto attacks is far too few, and something like 3 or 4 would make the stances last long enough to actually feel like stances, while still heavily encouraging you to not linger on one for an entire fight.

"anna-via" am i missing a joke here because this alone made me pause and sit here and stare in confusion

that ultimate skin compared to the old one is a huge step up

Just so you know, if you go full ad on Udyr you can potentially do upwards of 50% max health damage in bear stance then awaken it to refresh the effects on top of the chain lightning. 100% max health damage

So I've discussed this with a lot of other Udyr mains and this is pretty much what we agree should happen to save the rework and actually make it feel like Udyr and not just a new champ with no dashes (because that's honestly how he feels to me now). 1) Q should go back to being the DoT or they should simply make the lightning not bounce. Q should be the tool you use if you decide you want to 1v1 people and splitpush all game, Phoenix should be what you go if you decide you want to be teamfighting that game. The weird mix of AoE that Q has (not to mention it honestly doesn't do a whole lot of damage) turns it into this weird hybrid of 1v1 and teamfight but it ends up not being particularly good at either. Old Q was more or less perfect. 2) E feels a lot slower, like a straight up downgrade, and only really feels any decent on Awaken. Udyr's whole thing is that he's a speed demon and is really obnoxious to chase around because he's faster than everyone. Now he's lost a lot of that (and that's pretty much his identity so it feels like losing the champ) and his weaknesses of being kited feel even more exploitable (I thought reworks were supposed to help champs not make them worse?). Combo this with the fact that they removed the movement speed from Monkey's Agility and he's just not the same. Which btw, they should add back. Pretty much everyone can agree there was no reason to remove it. 3) They removed his whole thing of being able to build every item because now everything scales AP and the one thing that doesn't is honestly the worst part of his kit. I'm sorry but Q is just way worse than the new R in almost every way. 4) So many of his abilities actually took hits randomly. His E stuns for less long and gives less speed, his Q does way less damage and in general he just feels like he does way less damage. The Awakened abilities are definitely cool and strong tools for him but I don't think they're worth making the rest of him way worse. The only thing that feels like a strict upgrade is the new R, and it'll be really sad to see if Udyr gets stuck on one build and one ability because riot made everything else about him worse (and that's what it's looking like so far). Adding the fact that there's no more Monkey's Agility and it starts to feel like the old Udyr was a better Udyr than the new one. 5) The thing about the stances not really being stances anymore and just being abilities also really bothers me. Especially for laning. Mana used to not be such a big issue but you have to spam stances a lot more now and it gets bad even for jungle in a lot of scenarios. 6) *Why does Spirit Guard Udyr's bear have...tusks ??* No like actually what are those and why does it have them? Please remove those, it's unnatural and I don't think anyone likes them. Overall it was a great *idea* but the gameplay is just not there. Almost everything needs tweaking and they really killed his identity of being the "speed demon" of league of legends and the Udyr fantasy of running around the map farming everything you see at mach speed. His weakness of getting kited is even worse than before and he's not disruptive enough to be a tank like Amumu or Ornn (champs that can CC entire teams and never die). He just kind of...exists at you. But these are definitely fixable issues. We just need Riot to actually listen and care. Also his gamer neck is so extreme it hurts to look at and he looks really goofy when he stuns you with E.

I always thought they would put more active components onto his stances, like one being a sort of dash move and others some sort of fighting techniques (like sweeps, holds and etc.) and they did none of that. His gameplay is barely different

Add to his pass, blessing of seal Sister, add old 3rd hit effects after 1st 2, an he can keep gaining lvs pass 18, at lv20 they lower from 3 to 2.

I really feel the title hits home on this one.

Your videos go hard

bear stance for the new ultimate skin is brown/orange because its a mother bear based off a brown bear which is easier to show then blue brown bear to show the difference to the personality of a brown bear and a polar bear
