How to win the jungle race as Udyr against Taliyah · Matchup data reviewed on patch 26.15
Read from Udyr's seat: the race windows this plan plays for against Taliyah.
| Stage | Read | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 Clear | Udyr Dominant | A double stance point gives an instant trade pattern most junglers can't answer. Later in the game this bites, because a W toss into a stunning boulder field bursts you at every choke point. But before either of you has a second camp down none of it is online, so take the level-1 crossing and tax every camp Taliyah concedes. |
| Level 2 Skirmish | Udyr Dominant | Blazing Stampede's stun plus Wingborne Storm shred wins any straight fight, while boulder-field poke plus the W shove keeps duels at their range. Only one of those wins on the second camp, so press it: take the level-2 skirmish, then leave with the second buff and the tempo that comes with it. |
| Level 3 Route | Udyr Dominant | Four stance points are online and your awakened trades hit their hardest window. The W-into-Q burst combo plus E mine field wins fights at choke points, and as the first scuttle timer lands that is not an answer. Take the level-3 river fight and make Taliyah path away from the camps you want. |
| Levels 4-5 Macro | Udyr Dominant — Keep Fighting | You are the stronger side all through 4-5. Taliyah knows it — she uses 4-5 to shove waves and cross the map, with worked ground making her the faster rotator — so shadow that side of the map and make them fight you anyway. |
| Level 6 Breakpoint | Stance Mastery Favoured | Awakened stance rotations on four points hit harder than most actual ultimates. Taliyah's six is not empty — Weaver's Wall cuts your retreat path and ships ganks across the map. Take the duel from even health rather than from behind, and the wall is macro, not murder — the 1v1 still loses if you dodge the boulder field. |
| 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. Taliyah's first item makes the volley-into-shove combo a real burst instead of chip damage from range. |
| 2+ Items Scaling | Udyr Favoured at Full Build | You are the better full-build side, narrowly. She zones with mines and splits the map with the wall whenever she wants to, so take the duel with cooldowns up and never mid-rotation. |
Start your clear at the Raptors or Red Buff utilizing Wingborne Storm (R) to maximize early clear speed. Taliyah clears very fast with Threaded Volley on worked ground and rotates faster than almost anyone off her passive.
