Udyr vs Taliyah

Updated Jun 6, 2026

Overview

Use Udyr's superior clear speed and dueling to control jungle tempo and secure early objectives.
Prioritize river control and vision to limit Taliyah's map pressure and roaming potential.

Jungle Plan

Start with a full clear, then contest Scuttle Crab if your lanes can move first.
Invade Taliyah's jungle camps when vision shows her on the opposite side or after she uses (R) to roam.
Use superior dueling and fast clears to pressure dragon and Rift Herald setups, especially when lanes have priority.

Danger windows

Early invade attempts risk displacement and damage if Taliyah holds (W) and (E) near river chokepoints.
Isolated river fights are dangerous when Taliyah has vision and can use (W) to displace you into (E) zones.
Avoid forced smite fights when low on health or without lane priority, as Taliyah's zoning can deny access.

Early game

Full clear quickly to reach level 3 and contest first Scuttle Crab before Taliyah arrives.
Invade when nearby lanes have priority and Taliyah is pathing away from her jungle.
Avoid extended river fights without lane assistance due to Taliyah's displacement and poke.

Power spikes

Level 3 power spike: use empowered stance and stun to punish Taliyah before she has full combo access.
Mid-game tempo spike: leverage Udyr's strong dueling and objective control to force fights and secure dragons.
Track Taliyah's level 6 (R) to avoid being caught out during her increased map pressure and roam potential.

Win conditions

Convert Udyr's elite clear speed and dueling into consistent counter-jungling when Taliyah is spotted on the map.
Use river control and vision to secure early dragons and Rift Herald, denying Taliyah's objective setups.
Pressure lanes with ganks after successful invades to snowball leads and restrict Taliyah's roaming impact.
