Introduction

Urgot is a champion who has become something of a meme thanks to his disuse, however he does bring things to the table. High early-mid game damage, tankiness and a unique ultimate that brings CC and mispositions an enemy, effectively Insec-ing them at the press of a single key.

However, despite that he has glaring and obvious weaknesses, as do most champions that were designed in his era of League of Legends, and today we'll be looking at those flaws and uncovering how to defeat him.


Abilities


Passive – Adrenaline Rush

Passive – Zaun Touched Bolt Augmenter

Urgot's basic attacks and Acid Hunters reduce his targets' damage by 15% for 2.5 seconds.

Q – Infected Cleaver

Q – Acid Hunter

Urgot fires an Acid Hunter missile that collides with the first enemy it hits, slowing the target if he has his Terror Capacitor up. Acid Hunter missile-locks on enemies affected by Noxian Corrosive Charge.

W – Burning Agony (Toggle)

W – Terror Capicitor

Urgot charges up his capacitor to gain a shield. While the shield is active, Urgot gains slowing attacks.

E – Masochism

E – Noxian Corrosive Charge

Urgot launches a corrosive charge that damages enemies in an area and reduces their Armor.

R – Sadism

R – Hyper Kinetic Position Reverser

Urgot charges up his Hyper-Kinetic Position Reverser, swapping positions with the target and terrifying nearby enemies for 1.5 seconds. His target is suppressed for the duration of the channel. He gains Damage Reduction during and after the swap

Our Top Counter Tips For Urgot


Dodge the Noxus Corrosive Charge at all costs, Urgot loses a lot of potential damage if he has to aim the acid hunter.

Urgot is an AD Caster, which means that without his abilities he's far less effective. If his abilities are down (Namely his shield) you can punish him for it.

Urgot has to buy a tear, punish him for that power trough.

If worst comes to worst, just play the lane respectfully and wait for the mid-late game to come. Urgots damage falls off the later the game goes on.

When an Urgot uses his ultimate, use that time to kill him. Supressing someone else is also like stunning oneself in the way that you cannot move or cast other abilities.
