Its been almost a month. https://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/memes/t4PdEBuq-as-an-urgot-player?comment=0000000000000000

So let me just address the elephant in the room... THE RANGEEEE Trying to keep urgots old acid hunter combo intact and give him shot gun knees nerfed his range abysmally!!!!! ~~Though i do guess spamming Q for pretty much half a lane could be toxic. ~~ I WAS AGAINST SHUTGUN KNEES FROM THE VERY BEGINNING though it Is fun in concept/design when its all mashed together he just seems to outrange himself and it makes him feel a little clunky. His Q is delayed in cast (i mean u can see it coming from a mile away) and explosion and anyone with move speed or a dash will simply avoid it, and since like old urgot hes dependent on landing something for his damage it poses a problem. Unlike old urgot your really screwed if you dont land that corrosive charge as your W doesnt let you choose who you target (**AND YOU LOSE 125 MOVESPEED FROM USING IT! **) you could be in the middle of a team fight hitting minions and this really separates urgot from the other fighter class champions in a bad way. Even if you land Q on the back line theres very little possibility the rest of your abilities will even go that far im guessing the range on your W is like 380-400 its barely outside of your AA range

Disdain Urgots E has a crazy wind up, similar to Galio but why? the rest of his abilities are already slow just kicking himself with his 6 legs now using it stops your W hell everything stops your W for an ability you cant even control it sure as hell has alot of stipulations with it. Urgots old ult was cool we all know that and his new ults cool to so nothing to say about that except the fact that it can be body blocked pretty easily to some unfortunate side effects for the enemy R.I.PBraum .

All in all urgots actually fun he just seems to be held back BUFF HIS MOVESPEED 335 AND GIVE THAT W SOME RANGE FOR GODSSAKE

p.s I havent really seen him rise in popularity ive faced off against 2 other people in gold who were playing urgot!? im pretty sure hes gonna fall back to where he was after some patches.

Urgot is in a much better place currently than he was. His Q does delay which can be annoying to land in lane, the E is telegraphed, and the W does switch to auto target. However, after some farm to get some levels and items, he gets mean. The waveclear is excellent for a bruiser, his dash can help escape or engage, and in a brawl that W with shotguns is brutal.

I'd suggest two things laning. First, rush a Mallet. That little auto slow will make avoiding Qs harder. Not an optimal first item, but an idea. Second, if warded and extra enemies aren't nearby, Flash-E into your lane opponent before using your W. The W will lock onto a tossed champ and then follow with the Q to prevent them escaping.

You say his A is too unreliable? I guess it is as easy/difficult to dodge as cassios Q (if SHE doesnt hit it, she is f*cked). It also has a very strong slow which makes you able to get close to the enemy (you dont want new urgot to get close to you). The autotargetting on minions of the W seems annoying, but isnt that dramatic since his W AAs BARELY habe better dps than his normal AAs with regular AS (in early levels its worse I guess). The W is an utility tool which is used to proc the shotguns very fast. They WILL hit the enemy if you are close since they are aoe, so it doesnt matter if accidently attacking a minion.

Didn't put Sion as a choice for the best reworked champion, smh.
