Unpopular opinion(?) Don't nerf Urgot...

Kelg··17 votes·8,621 views

I see everyone keep talking about nerfing Urgot. Why? Just because he started popping up in pro play doesn't mean hes broken or needs nerfs. There are actual champs that are broken as fuck in solo queue and probably won't be nerfed any time soon(Ahri Kaisa Graves Jhin anyone?). Why should Urgot be ruined just because of LCS? He's never been a problem, and isn't one now, so leave my thicc boi alone. [sg-poppy]

Doesn't he have a near 100% winrate in pro-play, with the only losses his team fucking up drastically?

i'd say, nerf both categories.

Just because it takes people a while to realize how strong something is, does not mean it's not overpowered.

And just because a fan of a champion doesn't feel it's broken, doesn't mean it's not.

That being said, I believe Riot's official stance right now is to wait and see, since they believe there're a few counters that haven't been discovered. If those prove insufficient, then nerfing him would be justified, pro play or not.

Nerf those champs and Urgot.

Didn't Urgot being op have something to do with Spellbook or Time Warp Tonic?

He wasn't even touched balance wise for a good while, and Urgot himself was never a problem before now.

Nerf a champ that nobody plays for being played well. Go ahead. It's not like riot care about balance and people understand it.

If nobody plays Urgot but people consider him to be Broken in LCS. I'd think that some changes are warranted. After all, from the way you put it, isn't he just being abuse din the lcs then?

Except Meddler said they have no plans to nerf Urgot :thinking:

Gotta keep that blind Riot hate alive somehow though

Isn't urgot just a answer to the problem? So many bruisers that need to be punished, so he shows up. Right? I don't main top so. . .

EDIT: Like Quinn being a answer to all adcs being shit?

Nerfing Graves/Kaisa who has had a win/ban/pick rate for a VERY long time is less important than nerfing Urgot who has only recently seen pro play, according to Riot.

I don't think they will touch urgot, I think they will hit Unsealed Spellbook because he is the perfect case of why it shouldn't be strong.
