How to win the jungle race as Nunu & Willump against Udyr · Matchup data reviewed on patch 26.15
Read from Nunu & Willump's seat: the race windows this plan plays for against Udyr.
| Stage | Read | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 Clear | Danger — Avoid Udyr | Udyr out-classes you at the first buff — Blazing Stampede's stun plus Wingborne Storm shred wins any straight fight, and Blazing Stampede's stun-lock into awakened stance damage runs you down in a straight line. Skip the level-1 crossing, full-clear away from them, and trade map pressure instead of health. |
| Level 2 Skirmish | Danger — Avoid Udyr | Do not be seen on the second camp: Blazing Stampede's stun-lock into awakened stance damage runs you down in a straight line. On top of that, Blazing Stampede's stun plus Wingborne Storm shred wins any straight fight, so they get there first. Pre-position toward your tier-two side and dodge the first stun engage. Refuse the level-2 skirmish and farm the opposite quadrant until your spike lands. |
| Level 3 Route | Danger — Avoid Udyr | Hard no-contest for Nunu & Willump at level 3: four stance points are online and their awakened trades hit their hardest window, and Blazing Stampede's stun-lock into awakened stance damage runs you down in a straight line. Pre-position toward your tier-two side and dodge the first stun engage. Path opposite, ward your entrances, and let the clock carry you to your own spike. |
| Levels 4-5 Macro | Danger — Avoid Udyr | Udyr owns 4-5 outright. He farms 4-5 at speed and takes any fight near a wall, since Blazing Stampede needs only a straight line, so treat every crossing as theirs and take the camps they are furthest from. |
| Level 6 Breakpoint | Respect Udyr's R | Udyr wins the breakpoint outright — awakened stance rotations on four points hit harder than most actual ultimates, and awakened Blazing Stampede chains stuns faster than your cooldowns recover. Break the chase with walls — his power is point-blank and he cannot force the fight, then trade objectives cross-map until your items land. |
| First Item Spike | Liandry's Spike | Completing Liandry's Torment puts a max-health burn on every Consume (Q), Biggest Snowball Ever! (W) and Snowball Barrage (E) hit, so camps and waves melt and brawlers who try to out-sustain you lose a chunk of health every trade. Udyr's first item is where the awakened stance rotations stop being a heavy trade and start being a kill. |
| 2+ Items Scaling | Danger — Udyr Outscales | The clock is your enemy. He is an awakened-stance brawler with sustain, damage and a stun on a short timer, so close the game on the first two objectives you actually win. |
Start your clear at the Red or Blue Buff camp utilizing your Consume true damage to maximize early clear speed without needing a heavy leash. Udyr clears extremely fast with stance swaps and shields himself through it, so he is rarely below full health.
