After over a year, the Udyr rework has finally been revealed. He is everyone’s favorite shaman that used to just run at a player and strike fear into their heart. It seems as though he may do the same, but a bit different and in a much more fun and interesting way. Here is what was seen in the Udyr Rework Reveal trailer including the Udyr Rework Abilities.

When Udyr was chosen for the reworks, he was one of the least played champions in the game. This was due to his kit being out of date and nothing seemingly was able to help him reach his targets with regularity. Then with the reworked items came Turbo Chemtank. This item instantly shot Udyr up to being one of the most desirable champions in the jungle. Not only was this in solo queue but also in pro play.

Since then Udyr has become a bit of a pocket pick or just a pick for certain situations. Watch the trailer below and see why this may no longer be the case.

As one of the oldest champions in the game, it was clearly time for Udyr to level up. While there have been small changes before, this one looks like a major one.

All of his forms also seem to be staying, just not in the exact way they were before. They all look to be more related to the major gods of the Freiljord, which was a design choice. Little did players realize that even the abilities would actually be similar to the champions they are modeled after.

**Note: The official Udyr Rework Abilities have not been revealed. This is based on the reveal video and partially what was known from his previous iteration.

Bear Stance

His bear stance has seemingly changed to be more like his old tiger stance. It looks to increase his attack speed.

Ram Stance

Ram seemingly replaces the old Bear Stance. it looks like it will stun a target each time they are hit the for first time.

Boar Stance

This one takes the place of Turtle Stance giving Udyr a shield of some sort.

Phoenix Stance

This one is like a combination of Anivia’s ultimate and Shyvana’s fire. It slows enemies and looks to deal damage in an area of effect.

Ultimate?

There also looks to be an ultimate move or something else involved with each stance. The Bear brings out Volibear’s lightning. The Ram makes him charge like Ornn. Then the Boar seemingly increases the shield. Lastly the Phoenix may freeze champions.
