udyr needs hp and lots of it. he doesn't scale super well but he has a crazy good skill set so he does dmg without needing any items.
dats why u go tank udyr, dps is fun as hell though. not gonna die stomping people as dps udyr is hilarious.

At most grab dodge boots if there is plenty physical dps. Otherwise go Rageblade into Nashors. Get one level of E at lvl 4 or 6 max out R then W, then go back to E. As for Masteries I suggest 9/21/0. Rune wise I personally use 3 ArP marks, 6 MP marks, MP quints, Armor seals and MR Glyphs. But AS, CDR, AP, Dodge etc are all valid options. Are you kidding me? Good luck being 100% melee without any survivability skills and building dps.

In fairness, it works at low levels where people are so slow you can farm 3 items before serious fighting starts.

closer, but still no
you want armor/mr on udyr to maximize turtle stance/your incoming heals
hp will just be a bonus from items like banshee veil and sunfire cape

Oo dps udyr excels early its late where he drops of. You're underestimating his early survivability with out massive tank items. And tank Udyr is severely outclassed by Amumu in next to all regards. As for low levels. I can't speak for super pro top of the line 5v5 games. But at 1500 elo I have over 70% winrate with him, being one of my stronger chars. Where as I have never felt threatened by a Tank Udyr and the only one that would sound scary but I haven't met yet is a locket support Udyr for a heimer lineup. But even then unless you are 5v5 premading with a super specific early push plan your rageblade will make you happier. I am nafaltar on EU in case someone wants to verify that im not just talking out of my ass as I go along.

The bright side is you probably didn't lose to the same goddamn person 4 times.
Unlike me losing to Salce 5 times in a course of 6 games.
Still haven't gotten revenge...

Yeah, I couldn't give a crap about lower levels though when discussing viable strategies. I also know dps udyr destroys almost everyone 1v1, that just doesn't matter though.

BTW, as a tank vs a magic-heavy team I find that grabbing two negatrons right away and then building a sunfire cape or two seems to be an amazing build. Gives you nice mres and great hp and some damage as well. After the sunfire you turn those into banshee and maybe force of nature if you really are having trouble. Sometimes I even stack 3 negatrons and then build something like guardian angel and sunfires O_o Sunfires works well like that because it gives so much hp, I think~
EDIT: After some horrors in normal games, how can anyone complain about the ranked matchmaking? Most of the time everyone there understands quite a bit about the game and people don't do stupid stuff, people listen. People will build survivability on dps and casters, etc. I haven't had any problems with ranked matchmaking, at least not huge ones. I think I'm like 12-7 in solo queue and already there's people who know what's up.

Kinda goes in with Turkey reminding me the EHP from GA (although similar to Cata) is actually more effective than Cata/RoA by far if you have a healer. Why do people bother with strict item builds in this game again?
Edit: I always jungle as a tank so it's hard to tell, but... I stack as many HoGs as humanly possible as fast as possible, because they're the most cost-effective +HP item in the game, the added gold bonus is nice if you can stack them up early. At some point you have to stop, which is why sometimes you see me stop at 1, 2, and 3, and I have no set rule for it :o. Then depending on how their AP heroes are going I'll get one or two Sunfires (more hp) and then start getting MR.

QUESTION
How does Yi jungle? Can he really do it from level 1?
Obv, use Q a lot, but I don't see how Yi can kill golem level 1 =/

That's another thing yeah, actually if my team has a soraka or something I just buy mass chainmails and negatrons for a while =P
And I have no idea, but it still is so popular to have someone always go for mejais, always go for archangel, etc. It's disgusting how some people build the same items no matter what.

Who are you? What have you done with the real Shikyo?
Yi can jungle from level 1 even without Smite but early on you're more at the mercy of Alpha Strike procs. Smite's obviously more safe, and jungling at level 2 is the safest, but so far I've only seen one person bother to level to 2 before jungling.

Haha lucky. 
It's a vicious cycle.. the lower you go the worse teammates you get and the more you go on tilt/play crappy/not care. I don't really care just my Ezreal winrate was so sexy. But now it's down 10% and not sexy at all.

Most of my whine was about normal ;( On like a 5-game winstreak on ranked solo queue right now... I guess all the stupids who made me lose early on have been "banned" by the new level limit

I don't know about tilting but it's a vicious cycle getting worse and worse teammates. Especially if you're using the same hero over and over again, because you start falling into bad habits or repeating habits that work with good players etc.

I've learned it's better to find a person who can play a carry, and jungle tank for them. Almost never fails.

EDIT: And jungling Shaco when my friend does 1v2 is an autowin.
BTW, you still haven't told people how to jungle with master Yi. I'll now try the way that makes sense and after it fails I'm hoping you'll tell me how it is actually done >_>
|
;p It kinda makes me feel bad because I'm unable to carry them, but whatever... I guess being a decent/good tank is one sort of skill too, right? right? *cry*
I don't really know how to jungle with Yi because I rarely do it, and if I do I do it on my smurf without really bothering to care about speed etc. Thus, not gonna go into it except that you can do it at level 1 without smite, lol.
