Gragas vs Udyr

Updated Jun 4, 2026

Overview

Use your medium early game pressure and high gank threat to contest river and assist lanes early against Udyr's fast clears.
Prioritize objective control with (R) displacement to disrupt Udyr's strong sustained damage and tempo-based objective play.
Manage cooldowns carefully to avoid Udyr's high early duel threat and fast clear tempo, focusing on short trades and disengage.

Jungle Plan

Path to lanes with strong (E) angles to set up ganks and punish Udyr's limited long-range engage.
Fight for river control and objectives using (R) to isolate Udyr or break enemy formations, especially around dragon and Rift Herald.
Counter-jungle when Udyr overextends after fast clears, but only if your lanes have priority and you can safely disengage with (E).

Danger windows

Respect Udyr's early level 2-3 invade potential due to his fast clear and high dueling power.
Avoid isolated river fights where Udyr's mobility and stun can trap you without nearby lane support.
Be cautious during low-health clears or forced smite fights, as Udyr's sustained damage and tempo can overwhelm you.

Early game

Start with a three-camp clear to maintain health and prepare for early river pressure.
Contest first Scuttle only if nearby lanes have priority to avoid Udyr's high invade resistance and fast clear.
Avoid full clear handshakes against Udyr's very high clear speed; instead, path to lanes where (E) can force flashes or kills early.

Power spikes

At level 6, use (R) to isolate or disengage from Udyr's engage, forcing him to respect your displacement threat.
After your first AP or tank item, leverage your burst or durability to win short trades and avoid extended duels Udyr favors.
At level 3, use your full kit for poke, damage reduction, and stun to execute effective short trades before Udyr can fully commit.

Win conditions

Convert your gank threat and (R) displacement into objective control by breaking Udyr's formation around dragon and Rift Herald.
Deny Udyr free farm by punishing his slower rotations and invading camps when lanes have priority.
Use short burst trades around your passive and (W) to force Udyr off camps and create tempo advantages for your team.
