Urgot can bully some lanes pretty hard. There is no way in hell that Urgot has a 'better' or 'safer' lane phase than Caitlyn though. Caitlyn is also gonna do a lot more damage than Urgot late game and is better at sieging towers late game.

Urgot lane reliant on two things. First, your enemy has to get hit by your Es. Which is a combination of your skill and their ability to dodge them. So not only do you have to play well but your opponent has to mis-play for the lane to be effective pre-6. After that it's reliant on jungler ganks because often times just your ult isn't enough to get kills against most competent bot lanes. Urgot definitely good but his lane is a lot riskier than Caitlyn's and is just as reliant on your ability to play well as it is on your opponent's ability to play poorly.

Finally the two champs fill completely different roles. If you want a late game dps you wouldn't pick Cait or Urgot. If you want a champ that's safe you'd definitely pick Cait over Urgot because Urgot's lane phase is not as safe as Caitlyn's. If you want a champ in a team comp that looks to siege towers and push as a team Caitlyn is going to be one of your best picks (only better AD pick is Kog for pushing/tower sieging). If you wanted to run like a tanky comp or you needed an AD with initiation then you'd pick Urgot.

As for solo queue play, people are usually gonna play whatever AD champ they want regardless of what their team needs. So if you're a better Urgot play Urgot. If you're a better Cait play Cait. Both are 100% viable and good given the right team.

TSM did extremely well with getting the fast turrets, but they were stupid in trying to prioritize the inhib and inhib turret, which cost them multiple team fights, and tons of farm just for it. If they just took all the outer turrets, they can free farm from the enemy jungle and bait baron fights. Instead what happened was they got one inhib, and let shen free farm 500 cs while not taking a turret. Super minions push in, so M5 is getting 3 lanes of farm to TSM 1. How to throw a won game by tsm.

At pro level urgots laning + teamfight utility makes him a far better pick than Cait.To the extent that Urgot is a semii-common pick now while cait is never used

U seem like you got your ego bruised or something.




Also drilling is better for training mechanics. 1v1'ing, sure it helps, but will never be as good as actually playing the game. In a 1v1 environment so many factors are excluded, that are included in a real game, and you can play in a way where you are not punished.
