How to Play with Udyr as Kayn in LoL

The Kayn Udyr synergy stats shown here demonstrate the areas of his gameplay that do better (or worse) when paired with Udyr, compared to his overall stats. Significant differences are areas of focus that highlight how his gameplay changes when paired with this other champion.

Overall, Kayn sees a very large drop in his KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Udyr. His KDA decreased from NaN to NaN. This worsening shows that Udyr helps Kayn perform not as well in competitive League matches. Yet, the small difference demonstrates that this performance change is only marginal.

When Kayn is an ally to Udyr, he gets a marginal improvement in his complete damage dealt. This change could indicate that Udyr provides cover for him to deal more damage or that his presence on the team also helps increase the match's duration. Similarly, when Kayn is played with Udyr on the same team, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees compared to when he plays without Udyr. This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing with Udyr.

Additionally, when Kayn plays with Udyr on the same side, he often takes a little less damage than when he fights alone. Taking not as much damage could mean that Udyr does a decent job of protecting Kayn in team fights.

Is Kayn better when played alongside Udyr?

There is no perfect companion for Kayn that will always be his top ally. However, Udyr is a not very good teammate for Kayn. By locking into the same team as Kayn, he decreases their win rate by -1.1% to 48.1%. This signals that there is a harmful synergy between Kayn and Udyr that allows them to perform not as well together than without each other.

Udyr has a lower difficulty than Kayn. That means you don't need to be very careful when finding Udyr allies to fight alongside, as they will require a relatively low level of skill to be able to cooperate well with you.

When playing alongside, Kayn players will likely observe an overall large increase in your team’s ability to deal physical damage. Together, these two should be able to take down targets with auto-attacks and other AD damage abilities.

Conversely, by pairing Kayn and Udyr together, you may not be giving your other allies enough magic damage. We recommend you have other champs on your team that nullifies this relative disparity in this pairing's playstyle.

Regardless of the skill of your Udyr teammate, you need to focus on increasing your gold income, staying alive by avoiding foolish fights, and clearing objectives. If you heed this simple advice, you should do well anyway.
