How can you feel weak as Udyr? He's a beast

I played a lot of udyr. Not having an ultimate sucks and no gap closer does as well. Playmaking ability isn't very high. I read the udyr thread, analyzed all of Teut's posts. I never said he was bad, only that when I played him I often felt weak. Could have been my own bad play, timings, the state of the game etc.

he's pretty weak because his damage doesnt scale at all into lategame and you basically need someone to engage and do everything for you because you're only good in long fights
his early/midgame is often strong enough that it doesnt matter too much though, if you have an advantage going in even if you can't 1v1 ad carries anymore it might not matter too much

you basically peak at level 11, extra points in bear or tiger are really not amazing, since you tend to choose between getting 200 more damage from an extra pheonix hit or using tiger and getting 300-400 damage but its physical and thats if you max it often maxing bear is probably still better (+getting level 18 is unlikely in most games so a few ranks in tiger is usually not worth it)

in theory trinity/wits would be pretty good for damage but since you want lots of resist/cdr and all the good cdr items are stacked with hp and little/no resists you need pretty retarded fed to tick all the boxes other champs have with like 2 items

I remember having trouble because I would focus on CDR and thus not have too many resistances, and by the time I had both my damage had fallen off. Plus people always expect you to build bulwark, which isn't bad, just 3k gold into non-CDR at all.
Do you still do the swifties+spirit stone -> farm both jungles -> only go to lanes for free kills or counterganks -> locket//bulwark/FH always dance never die?
Cant take LMS hipsters serious.

I could see udyr being a good for the counterjungling resurgence. If I were to try him now I would invade their red after my blue and then just farm the jungle nonstop and try to ward everything so I can try to countergank and prevent my lanes from dying to ganks. Try to get to that lvl 11 peak teut mentioned asap.

Take a champ that is annoying, but with a weak earlygame, but strong scaling.
Nerf all other lategame champs' lategame.
Nerf nearly all earlygame counters.

Profit?

I'd say 90% of my games go well in to the late game and everyone has been level 18 for ages.

I think it's a commentary on a game with udyr in it. Either you hit the timing strong or you don't and the tides quickly turn against the udyr's team.

was watching WoDx the other day and he said bork + shyv are the reason why trynd is so strong right now, i agree those items make him pretty much impossible to duel

All I want is Spirit Guard ASAP. Unfortunately, I know that so does half of the playerbase, and EVERY GAME is going to be an early Udyr pick/ban because of the popularity influx he's about to grab. Luckily I'll have Bear Sej to tide me over until the rush dies down.

I'm banning him always and asking for trynd bans if i'm not first pick

He's the most annoying thing ever, he can go 1/10 and still 1vs1 anyone with Botrk and Shyv anyone plus low elo teams can't react to split push most of the times

90% of my games dont go to lategame at all
maybe more than half has 1 team with players that are level 18 but certainly not supports and junglers

its not "hitting a timing" its just you have to play well early and hope theres opportunities to give your team a gold advantage. It's VERY rare in solo q that you can't have a game pretty much won by 20 minutes however if we want to talk about a pro level game certainly its going to be hard to get kills as a champ with as low mobility and burst as udyr.

I noticed it while playing an aram, but Maokai's ability scaling is really weird. None of them decrease in cooldown, two increase in mana (and both have high base mana costs) (ps. non-ult). Then you get to his ult, with incredibly high mana costs (almost as high as Anivia). The weirdest thing about his ult though, is that the damage is what increases instead of the damage reduction.
I don't play Maokai, but it seems as though playing him in the current meta is kind of hard. Most junglers will buy aegis, and you'll be expected to pass blue along usually, so mana items will be a bit hard to fit in until later. Has anyone had any success with him recently?

I used to go as far as getting chalice on maokai. (and philo ofcback when shurelyas was op) Most playesr deal with high mana cost by mostly ganking so you don't worry about burning mana on camps. I do think a farmed maokai can be strong but for sure having to get aegis and give blues and stuff hurts him a lot you'd love to just get locket frozen heart or something after ancient golem and start killing fools.

Perhaps I misspoke or I'm wrong. I meant either you secure the advantage within that window (early game) or you don't and the game is likely lost at that point since it gets harder and harder for udyr to do anything once everyone is full builds and blowing ppl up left and right.

Haha I took "reversed" to mean to switch around the subjects, i.e. "I really don't like playing ranged" and "pretty much all of my champions are Udyr."

It still made sense :o

Udyr scrub here, but in what situations do I not max Turtle as toplane/solo lane (if any?).
