Udyr is a versatile melee champion in League of Legends who uses a unique stance-switching combat system. Instead of having an ultimate ability, he has four basic abilities that each grant different combat stances.

Each stance empowers Udyr's next two basic attacks and provides unique effects:

Wilding Claw (Q)

• Grants bonus attack speed
• Deals bonus physical damage
• Awakened: Strikes targets with lightning chains

Iron Mantle (W)

• Provides lifesteal and healing
• Grants a protective shield
• Awakened: Increases shield strength and healing

Blazing Stampede (E)

• Enables target stunning
• Increases movement speed
• Awakened: Grants crowd control immunity

Wingborne Storm (R)

• Deals area magic damage
• Creates a damaging blizzard
• Awakened: Unleashes a mobile storm that follows targets

Key Mechanics:

• 1.5-second global cooldown between stance switches
• Can "Awaken" stances for enhanced effects
• Builds primarily as a fighter or tank
• Excels at jungle clearing and dueling
• Effective at both splitting and teamfighting

Udyr requires careful stance management and positioning to be effective. His versatile kit allows him to adapt his playstyle based on team composition and game situation.
