How to win the jungle race as Warwick against Udyr · Matchup data reviewed on patch 26.15
Read from Warwick's seat: the race windows this plan plays for against Udyr.
| Stage | Read | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 Clear | Respect Udyr | Blazing Stampede's stun plus Wingborne Storm shred wins any straight fight, and Warwick has no clean answer to it at the first buff — 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, and give up your opening camps rather than the kill. |
| Level 2 Skirmish | Respect Udyr | The window on the second camp belongs to Udyr: Blazing Stampede's stun plus Wingborne Storm shred wins any straight fight. Your own line is real — Blood Hunt (W) attack speed plus Q healing out-sustains every trade pattern — but it arrives second here. Pre-position toward your tier-two side and dodge the first stun engage, then refuse the level-2 skirmish. |
| Level 3 Route | Respect Udyr | At level 3 this window belongs to Udyr: 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. Give up the level-3 river fight and bank tempo on the opposite side of the map. |
| Levels 4-5 Macro | Respect Udyr — Path Opposite | Do not trade windows with Udyr here: he farms 4-5 at speed and takes any fight near a wall, since Blazing Stampede needs only a straight line. Path opposite, keep your entrances warded, and answer the map, not the champion. |
| Level 6 Breakpoint | Even Ult Window | Level six changes both of you at once: Infinite Duress suppression plus Blood Hunt frenzy ends any duel that starts below full, while awakened stance rotations on four points hit harder than most actual ultimates. Break the chase with walls — his power is point-blank and he cannot force the fight, and let the objective timer say when to commit. |
| First Item Spike | BotRK / Stride Spike | Blade of the Ruined King or Stridebreaker turns your already-strong dueling into outright stat-check dominance, with percent-health shred and stick potential layered onto your healing. Your camp clear accelerates sharply, letting you full-clear and still arrive for every river fight. Force extended skirmishes around objectives where nobody on their team can out-trade you 1v1. Udyr's first item is where the awakened stance rotations stop being a heavy trade and start being a kill. |
| 2+ Items Scaling | Respect Udyr Late — End Early | The full-build comparison goes to Udyr: he is an awakened-stance brawler with sustain, damage and a stun on a short timer. Play for picks and objectives, and end before the fight has to be fair. |
Start either buff with Q sustain — you need no leash and end the opening camps near full health. Note Udyr's starting side from lane leashes; your level 3 is strong enough that you can path toward them rather than away if you spot their entry point. Udyr clears extremely fast with stance swaps and shields himself through it, so he is rarely below full health.
