Watching the pick and ban stage of the TSM and EDG match. and i'll say that I was shocked when I heard,
"You have to ban Urgot here or first pick him, that all there is to it"
When did Urgot become a pick or ban champ? Wasn't he the joke of the rift like 2 patches ago. Did he get a massive buff that i missed or is he that good in the current tank meta.
Don't get me wrong here, LONG LIVE URGOD!!! lovin' the love he's getting.
He has been a legitimate good pick since right before Cinderhulk I believe.
He got some minor buffs and QOL changes in the last year, nothing too big outside of some AA speed and Mana Regen that only comes into play early in the laning stages. Then a couple patches ago he was picked mid lane to counter a Zed, only until then did people realize he doesn't suck.
-sigh- I miss being a hipster Urgod player.
He is a good lane bully...you can pick him mid into assasins. Has bad waveclear though and gets ganked really easily while being useless if he falls behind. IF you pick him adc you have no damage lategame. I don't really like the pick, especially not as first pick.
