Udyr vs Master Yi

Updated Jun 6, 2026

Overview

Udyr's superior clear speed and dueling power let him control jungle tempo and contest river early.
Prioritize invading or counter-invading Master Yi when lanes have priority to deny his scaling farm.

Jungle Plan

Use fast clears to cycle camps and track Master Yi's position to counter-jungle safely.
Invade when lanes have priority and Master Yi is on opposite side to deny his farm and force resets.
Prioritize dragon and Rift Herald control with vision when you have tempo advantage to leverage Udyr's objective control.

Danger windows

Avoid isolated river fights before level 6 when Master Yi can dodge and sustain damage with (Q) and (W).
Be cautious contesting objectives if lanes lack priority, as Master Yi can capitalize on poor positioning with resets.
Low-health clears without vision invite Master Yi's reset chains; maintain vision and health before committing.

Early game

Full clear quickly to hit level 3 before Master Yi and decide between invading or securing first Scuttle based on lane priority.
Fight for first Scuttle only if nearby lanes can move first to avoid risky isolated river fights.
Avoid early fights without lane priority as Master Yi's low early pressure punishes overcommitment.

Power spikes

Level 6 unlocks Udyr's full dueling and crowd control potential; use this to force fights before Master Yi's ultimate.
Udyr's early item spikes enhance dueling and objective control; pressure Master Yi before he completes his first item.
Respect Master Yi's level 6 and first item spikes as his reset and chase threat rises significantly.

Win conditions

Convert Udyr's clear speed and dueling into consistent counter-jungling to deny Master Yi's scaling.
Use lane priority to secure Scuttle and dragon vision, enabling safer objective control and forcing Master Yi into risky fights.
Focus on early to mid-game tempo to close out before Master Yi reaches his late-game carry power spike.
