He's got shit damage that's made up for by utility (which is awesome!) and being a lane bully. Except he's NOT a lane bully. He used to be a lane bully but now he's just a crappy has been in lane. 42% winrate in solo queue can probably attest to that. | ||

urgot was only popular when genja started playing him purely tank trying to compete with adc in damage with him is beyond dumb and thats why all these calculations are bad he's got 2 forms of defensive abilities a slow an armour AND damage dealt debuff and a great initiation tool as well as damage that can follow people long distances (aka adcs) if he was melee everyone would jungle him and play him full tank everyone is like amagerd but muramana just like every silver level nasus rushes sheen i mean urgot phase was the only phase in the last like 2 years that people ran comps without a proper "adc". There have been comps with APs, without tanks, without bruisers and without assassins but always with an adc except if when people ran urgot. | ||

Olaf was sub 50% when he was first pick/ban. Note: I'm not saying Urgot is first pick/ban strong. | ||

We've got a champion with a cool kit who plays differently from any other champion in his defined role, and it's a playstyle that with the current assassin comps we're seeing should actually do very well. He's unique and interesting and makes for 5v5 playstyles that could be very different from conventional compositions. But mana cost and mobility creep have gutted his laning experience so hard that it's impossible to take him to lane now. And yet even with Riot going all over the place lowering mana costs on all these different champions, reworking Olaf, Heimerdinger, Xerath, Skarner etc all at once, Urgot who has lower play and winrates than any of them is not getting touched. What the fuck. | ||

its not some evil riot ploy to destroy old champions, they just nerfed him really hard. people dont like playing against him a lot so like poppy he's probably not a priority. | ||

you do need a specific team comp to play him. I thought TL was against the homogenization of champs anyway. | ||

Kogmaw deals 5069 damage plus 46% of their maximum HP. What the fuck is that shit? Buff Urgot. again, ketara, stop focusing on just one little aspect. Urgot's ult is beyond fucking bonkers when done correctly. | ||

He's boring to play against (did he hit E? let me get fucked with no option as I run back 10 feet behind tower), boring to play (did I hit E? let me sit here and auto with my durpy range because I missed), and is either strong enough to win his lane handily and snowball a win or not strong enough to win his lane handily and gets outscaled into an inevitable loss. Yes, other champions are dependent on snowball too, but they are usually useless or omnipotent too. Urgot is even worse because his snowball depends on him basically nullifying one of your players, which is something he either does or doesn't. There's really no in between where Urgot is valuable in a fight/comp without being able to shut down an enemy carry. Fights with urgot are always 4v5, just depends which team has it (the poppy problem). Urgot is poorly designed, as are most specific anti-carries in league. Carries aren't strong enough and CC not long enough in this game for anti-carries to be stopped when ahead, so the only way to have them in the game is to make them fucking useless. | ||

Reading comprehension please. Urgot is an awesome champion who is completely unviable because the numbers on his kit are awful. If you don't think so, prove me wrong. You can't. Buff Urgot. | ||

Because it didn't happen. listing tristanas, caitlyns, twitch and kogmaws damage and then saying buff urgot. listing 4 AD carries damage and then and then saying buff urgot implies 2 things, that urgot should be compared to ad carries (and is therefore and ad carry too) and that his problem is purely his damage. | ||
