How to play it
DO
Watch his shield
When his shield appears on his health bar he's about to flip with E — W it to reduce the damage and stun while you keep spinning.
Trade pattern
Walk in, E to start spinning, then auto-Q as you disengage — he has no sustain, so sit back and let your passive tick after.
Start W
at level 1 — Urgot's level 1-2 is incredibly strong and he'll zone you with his flip and PTA.
DON'T
Never keep 1v1ing Urgot into the late game — he outscales you tremendously and has one of the best dueling kits against Garen.
