It can also shatter magical prison and instanly thaw him when he's frozen solid. Cuz vitamin C, where the C stands for cleanse

It lubes up the spike so it just falls out.

Because an orange a day keeps the Urgot away.

The oranges are k, and that's all you need to know.

I keep eating them, but it's still Sesaon 8, so apparently not.

The orange is even more powerful than all the world runes combined, don't underestimate the orange.

With the power of the Infinity Oranges, he'll make half of your kit disappear

Hit by car? Eat an orange, be k! Shot in the face? Eat an orange, be k! Eat too many oranges? Eat an orange, be k! There’s no amount of k you can’t be when you have oranges!

Because Urgot's ultimate is coded as a surpression, which can be cleansed by QSS. QSS and Oranges are pretty much identical in how they function. So that's that.

he use to be a popeye the sailor man inspired character where instead of spinach he uses oranges.

now hes just a grumpy ass old man

Because Urgot ult is a suppression. Suppressions can be cleansed by oranges and QSS.

oh you have an unsanitary giant spear lodged in your boy? here eat an orange, you'll feel much better

He kills you when he pulls you into his vortex

but he needs to actually pull you

so if he shoots the chains that suppress and drag you, and then you cleanse that suppression, you will escape.

I've personally escaped urgot ult using QSS on jinx once. So I think it is intended.

And yes, it means there is another way to avoid the "guaranteed" death.

It's a normal thing, think about item 3140 and Zed R, same thing... Wait no, zed can't have couterplay...too bad [slayer-jinx-wink] (Dont have images, but it goes like this) TF4 meme>urgor "i fear nothing. But that thing [Oranges]. IT SCARES ME!"

its more likely that the orange healed him enough to avoid being killed by the ult

Wouldnt that be something like Healing above the execute threshhold thus you can no longer execute him?

seems like an oversight since there are a lot of post-cast-damage or whatever that scurvy snacks cannot remove

i never really noticed--urgot is pretty darn good against GP either way haha

You're no longer chained. Why would the damage apply?

I don't get what you mean by this thread? GP's orange skill is to heal him and remove CC on him. It doesn't remove debuffs, which Urgot ult is classified as (as well as Zed's and Fiora's ult). GP can cheat Urgot's ult before Urgot recasts it IF he heals beyond the threshold needed for Urgot's execute recast but if he already sent his chains for GP, it doesn't matter if he healed too late or not.

He's going inyo the meat grinder.
