Urgot was one of the most played ADCs some time back; but this was quite some time ago though, back when he was essentially THE ADC counter in lane. After some nerfs though, he fell out of favor, and I don't really see pros play him all that much (except, as you said, once in a blue moon). Honestly, I personally am glad he's not as popular as he once was...he was one of those ban/pick must haves at the time, and I prefer seeing a variety of champions played. Sure, most recently Corki was a hot pick, but we're seeing more variety than ever in the ADC role.

As for Galio...I seem to remember somebody playing him with some frequency (even in actual competitive games getting pentas as I recall) but after doing some searches, I came up fruitless. :/ Seems the pros tend to play the best picks at the moment and not much more, even on streams.

He's in NA

He was support for CLG, then Support for Curse for a long time, then coached Team Coast this last split, but he's building a team to try to get into the LCS next split. He likes to try out a lot of "unconventional" champs.

Future reference, probuilds.net is a good place to see what pros are using which champs, and exactly how they are building them.

Cheers!
