Playing as Udyr
Tips to maximize your impact
- Swap stances between your autos
Swap stances every two autos: after each spell, Bridge Between (passive) gives attack speed to your next two attacks.
- Iron Mantle when you take damage
Switch to Iron Mantle (W) when you're taking damage: you gain a shield, and your next two autos heal you. Once awakened, it also heals you over time.
- Stun one target after another
In Blazing Stampede (E), each auto makes you dash to your target and stuns them. Switch targets to stun several: the same target can't be stunned again for a while.
- Awaken your Stampede to engage
To engage into a team full of CC, awaken Blazing Stampede (E) by recasting it: you become immune to immobilizing effects and gain move speed.
- Run at them in your storm
Cast Wingborne Storm (R) while running at the enemies: every second, it damages and slows everyone around you.
Playing against Warwick
How to counter and exploit weaknesses
- Stay above 50% health
Keep your health above 50%: below that, Blood Hunt (W) gives him speed toward you and attack speed, three times more below 25%.
- Finish him fast below 50% health
When he drops below 50% health, finish him fast, with CC if you have any: Eternal Hunger (passive) then heals him with each auto, three times more below 25%.
- Don't count on a dash to escape
If you have a dash, don't count on it to escape his held bite: Jaws of the Beast (Q) makes him follow all your movement, then leap behind you.
- Stay behind your tanky allies
In teamfights, stay behind your tankiest allies: Infinite Duress (R) suppresses the first champion hit, and its range grows with his move speed.
- Cut his healing
If you have Grievous Wounds, apply it to him: his autos heal him at low health, and Infinite Duress (R) heals him for all the damage it deals.
