Survive and scale: Zed faces both matchup (46.17%) and farming disadvantages (6.64 vs 6.98/min). With a 0.34 CS/min deficit, prioritize safe farming and jungle assistance. Damage doesn't equal wins: Zed outputs more damage (738 vs 698/min, 2nd place) but still loses the matchup. The issue likely lies in survivability, mobility, or damage timing rather than raw output. Strong individual performance: Zed maintains better KDA (2.70, 29th place vs 34th for Udyr), but loses the matchup overall. High KDA without wins suggests difficulty translating individual advantages into victory conditions.

Difficult matchup requiring deep understanding of game mechanics and flawless execution. Patience and proper macro play are the keys to victory in this confrontation.
Except for rare builds, Zed deals physical damage. Focus on eliminating enemy carries. Udyr has mixed damage, be careful as it may be harder to defend if the opponent gets ahead or plays aggressively.
Consider the farming superiority demonstrated by Udyr, ranking 7th (versus 12th for Zed) in farming efficiency among champions in this role. This means the opponent can build gold advantages more quickly. Meanwhile, their lower KDA (2.5 versus 2.7) suggests they are less effective in team fights.
In this difficult confrontation, it is critically important for the Zed player to avoid attempts to force trades and all-ins with the Udyr player, as the matchup requires a patient and calculated approach. Extended trades without clear tactical advantage often lead to unfavorable consequences, and ignoring opportunities to receive team support can be a fatal mistake for game progression.
