Extremepush Udyr, Taking Splitpushing to the...

[quote=DeOnde]So, [[Udyr]] is a champion with some very unique mechanics and those were what made me craft this build for him ( i tried it on other champions but it didn't work quite as good). His [[phoenix stance]] and general character design work very well for this build's finality : [color=#ff8000]Taking splitpushing to the next level[/color]. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [center][color=#00ff00]Pros[/color]:[/center] [center][color=#00ff00]Extremely High Waveclear and AoE damage[/color].[/center] [color=#00ff00]Deals High Ammounts of mixed damage, both physical (from [[tiger stance]], [[iceborn gauntlet]], and [[ravenous hydra]]) and magical (from [[sunfire cape]], [[statikk shiv]] and [[phoenix stance]][/color] [center][color=#00ff00]Very Strong Duelist (necessary for splitpushing)[/color][/center] [center][color=#00ff00]Very fast clear times[/color][/center] [center][color=#00ff00]Can push very fast with [[phoenix stance]] and drop turrets quickly with [[tiger stance]][/color][/center] [center][color=#00ff00]Strong Counterjungler[/color][/center] [center][color=#00ff00]Very Sustained and durable because of [[turtle stance]] and [[ravenous hydra]][/color][/center] [center][color=#00ff00]One of the game's fastest movement speed with [[monkey's agility]], [[bear stance]], [[ghost]] (with [[summoner's wrath]]) , [[greater quintessence of movement speed]], [[statikk shiv]], [[boots of swiftness]] and [[wanderer]][/color][/center] ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [center][color=#ff0000]Cons[/color]:[/center] [center][color=#ff0000]Melee ranged[/color][/center] [center][color=#ff0000]Easily kiteable[/color][/center] [center][color=#ff0000]Needs Good Team communication to work well[/color][/center] ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [items=http://www.mobafire.com/league-of-legends/item-purchase-planner#&item=38-165-57-150-159-169] The item choices are aimed towards giving you massive AoE damage through [[sunfire cape]], [[ravenous hydra]], [[iceborn gauntlet]] and [[statikk shiv]] when paired with [[phoenix stance]]. You startgame item are very similar to many other [[udyr]] builds, [[spirit of the ancient golem]], [[sunfire cape]] and [[iceborn gauntlet]] are very common choices for [[udyr]]. The transition to this build comes after you finish your [[tiamat]], making your waveclear off the charts. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [masteries=http://www.mobafire.com/league-of-legends/mastery-tree-planner#&tree1=1-3-0-2-4-0-1-0-1-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0&tree2=1-0-4-0-2-1-0-0-2-1-1-0-3-0-0-0-0-0-0&tree3=0-3-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0&v=2] The masteries i take for this build focus on 3 things : Damage to monsters, Movespeed and Defense. The extra damage to turrets from [[destruction]] can be used with [[tiger stance]] to take down towers extremely fast. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [runes=http://www.mobafire.com/league-of-legends/rune-page-planner#&rune=277:9-262:9-283:9-259:3] [[greater mark of Attack speed]] means more [[phoenix stance]] procs, faster jungle clearing and overall higher damage output. [[greater mark of hybrid penetration]] is also viable 9 of [[greater seal of armor]]s are the standart for pretty much anyone, [[udyr]] is no exception, the damage those deny in the early game are too much. [[greater glyph of Scaling magic resist]] are very good, you probably won't have problems with magic damage dealers until those get better than the flat MR ones. [[greater quintessence of Movement speed]] are very good in the jungle, it works very well in any stage of the game. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- So, after this brief overview on my newborn [[udyr]] build, what are you guy's opinion? Does [[Udyr]] have what it takes to become the ultimate split-pusher? Final Note: I'm considering to adapt this build to the top-lane, where you can take [[teleport]] and have a higher map presence, but it's not done yet.[/quote]

[quote=NicknameMy]I kinda miss some magic resistance in here. One option could be [[wit's end]] instead of [[statikk shiv]]. BTW: Skill Order? [abilities=rweqrrrwrweeqqqqee champion=Udyr] Udyr is one of the best orb walker in the game, so I would say he can abuse both [[phoenix stance]] and [[tiger stance]] at a gank.[/quote]

[/quote] Yeah, i'm aware of this. This build i'm showing is different from what i mostly use when i play [[udyr]]. My common (Phoenix) [[udyr]] build is : [[Boots of swiftness]]/[[ninja tabi]]; [[spirit of the ancient golem]], [[iceborn gauntlet]], [[wit's end]]/[[locket of the iron solari]] , [[randuin's omen]] and [[spirit visage]] (Much tankier than this one, for bigger team utility). I've though of adding [[wit's end]] to this build to have more MR and make them more susceptible to [[phoenix stance]], but [[statikk shiv]] works better for splitpushing (This build's focus). Yes, this skill sequence you added is mostly what i would max when trying this build. But i think you could also sacrifice some speed by letting [[bear stance]] at 3 points to have greater duelinng with a maxed [[turtle stance]].[/quote]

[quote=Mooninites]I can't really see this working unless it's top lane udyr. You'd also probably need teleport, otherwise the enemy team can just group and 5v4 your team. There are better split pushers than udyr, even if you build this way, so I can't really see it catching on[/quote]

[quote=Bweezle]So I tried out your build--definitely fantastic push power. You clear most of a wave in one Phoenix punch. The two issues I found were that if you don't build Sunfire cape early, your tankiness drops off fast and you'll miss teleport after the laning phase. Other than that, it's pretty sweet. Next game, I'm modifying it for top lane to see how that works.[/quote]
