The jungle race — the windows in Udyr's plan

Read from Udyr's seat: the race windows this plan plays for against Rengar.

StageReadWhy
Level 1 ClearUdyr FavouredA double stance point gives an instant trade pattern most junglers can't answer, but a brush-side Savagery leap is the hardest level-1 opener in the jungle. You still win the straight exchange at the first buff; keep it short, keep it decisive, and keep the scuttle line yours.
Level 2 SkirmishUdyr FavouredBlazing Stampede's stun plus Wingborne Storm shred wins any straight fight. Rengar can make it awkward — a brush-leap empowered Savagery removes half your HP before you can react — but not with one camp still up on both sides. Trade, then walk away with the second buff and the tempo that comes with it.
Level 3 RouteUdyr FavouredFour stance points are online and your awakened trades hit their hardest window. The margin is thin: a 4-ferocity empowered Q already one-shots squishier junglers near any bush, and one slow camp on your side hands the window straight back, so keep the trade short. Hug the centre of corridors away from brush — his entire kit needs a bush to function.
Levels 4-5 MacroUdyr Favoured — Take DuelsThe 4-5 window is yours if you pick it: he hunts brushes through 4-5, and any lane with an unswept bush is a full-ferocity kill. Track that pattern, arrive one camp early, and take the fight before the follow-up shows.
Level 6 BreakpointStance Mastery FavouredAwakened stance rotations on four points hit harder than most actual ultimates. Thrill of the Hunt opens every fight with an unanswerable stealth leap, so the margin is real but narrow: fight when your ultimate is up and Thrill of the Hunt is the one on cooldown.
First Item SpikeTrinity / Liandry SpikeCompleting your core item triggers a massive damage and clear speed multiplier that completely overpowers traditional brawlers or isolated targets. Rengar's first item is the point where an empowered Savagery stops chunking and starts one-shotting squishier targets.
2+ Items ScalingEven Scaling — Prep DecidesEven at full build. Since he leaps from stealth and removes a squishy before the health bar finishes updating, win the vision around the pit first and the fight second.

How to beat Rengar as Udyr: the first clear and pathing
