How to win the jungle race as Udyr against Amumu · Matchup data reviewed on patch 26.15
Read from Udyr's seat: the race windows this plan plays for against Amumu.
| Stage | Read | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 Clear | Udyr Dominant | A double stance point gives an instant trade pattern most junglers can't answer. There is no version of this Amumu wins right now — Despair tank stats clear fine, but champion duels are losers, and that folds at the first buff. Show on their side of the river and take a camp and a chunk of their health bar. |
| Level 2 Skirmish | Udyr Dominant | Blazing Stampede's stun plus Wingborne Storm shred wins any straight fight. Later in the game this bites, because a Bandage Toss stun into Tantrum spam wears you down inside his Despair aura. But with one camp still up on both sides none of it is online, so take the level-2 skirmish and tax every camp Amumu concedes. |
| Level 3 Route | Udyr Dominant | Four stance points are online and your awakened trades hit their hardest window, while Despair tank stats clear fine, but champion duels are losers. Only one of those wins at the opening scuttle, so press it: take the level-3 river fight, then leave with the first scuttle and the gank window behind it. |
| Levels 4-5 Macro | Udyr Dominant — Keep Fighting | Levels 4-5 change nothing: you still win every straight duel vs Amumu, and levels 4-5 are pure gank-hunting for him — a Bandage Toss into any lane with follow-up beats a full clear. Sit in their river, take both scuttles, and tax the camps they concede. |
| Level 6 Breakpoint | Stance Mastery Favoured | Awakened stance rotations on four points hit harder than most actual ultimates. The AoE Curse locks entire contests, so the margin is real but narrow: fight when your ultimate is up and Curse of the Sad Mummy is the one on cooldown. |
| First Item Spike | Trinity / Liandry Spike | Completing your core item triggers a massive damage and clear speed multiplier that completely overpowers traditional brawlers or isolated targets. Amumu's first completed item makes Despair and Tantrum clear at real speed and turns his engage into a genuine team-fight threat. |
| 2+ Items Scaling | Even Scaling — Prep Decides | Both kits pay off at 2+ items — late fights vs Amumu come down to who enters with cooldowns, vision, and numbers. Win with setup, not stats. |
Start your clear at the Raptors or Red Buff utilizing Wingborne Storm (R) to maximize early clear speed. Amumu opens on a buff and clears steadily off Despair and Tantrum, so he is rarely far from his own camps before three.
