How to play it
DO
Respect his dash
His E grants him armor and dashes him out of your melee range — before Stridebreaker you can't reliably pin him, so don't over-commit the chase.
Stridebreaker swing
Once Stridebreaker is up his dash can't space you out — the lane swings your way and he's forced to ult just to escape.
Max R early
His E armor eats into your damage, so put your early points into R — that's what lets AD Udyr actually deal good damage onto him.
DON'T
Never brawl him in extended melee before Stridebreaker — his passive and the armor from his E turn that fight in his favor.
