This champion is fucking awesome. Everything from his gameplay, design, interactions, SHOTGUN KNEES, all of it. I just want to say that Urgot is one of the coolest reworks I've seen in my opinion. Sure, he isn't commonly played like Warwick, but it truly feels like a metric shit-ton of effort went into recreating him. He is fun to play and feels balanced really well. Also that ultimate is my favorite ability in the entire game. https://imgur.com/0m3AOrc I know that only like 2 people will read this but if you love impaling people and pulling them into your saw blades then try out Urgot please

"Sure, he isn't commonly played like Warwick"

He actually wasn't intended to be. He's very niche in terms of design, lore and gameplay and the rework team knew this and kept that in the new Urgot. I personally don't play Urgot, but I think his rework is so cool!!! Just not my play style but I love seeing him during matches.

By far the best feeling in the game is ulting somebody as they are recalling, thinking they are safe.... They were never safe. [sg-syndra]

Thank you for the kind words friend, it always makes me day to see a post like this about Urgod! The team is very proud of what was made with Urgot, and any time a post like this comes up we link it around to the group.

And he has some killer skins to boot.

And I know it was already said, but...SHOTGUN KNEES!

As an Eve enthusiast, i think the coolest rework was Evelynn's. Her lashers are way sexier than Urgot's shotgun knees or his meatgrinder.

#:^)

Best skin for Eve, in my opinion, is Safecracker. The way she carries herself and how she walks with her "improvised" lashers just infatuates me (plus her sexy, skin-tight suit). The way she moves, attacks, uses spells, stalks and talks, it's all specially designed to convey you the true meaning of a demoness femme fatale. And the pure satisfaction when proccing her charm and then going into a combo to eviscerate a poor, unsuspecting soul...IS what she lives for. What she desires the most.

The way Riot does reworks is just astounding. When your chosen champion feels alive like this in the games you play, it's the most satisfying feeling in the world. That way, you can truly see League through their eyes.

Urgot's really fun. But personally, I find him most fun when played in the jungle. It's weird, kinky, and gets flamed a lot because of you R killsteal.

You wait for someone to overextend, walk to his lane and cut off the escape route, Q-W-E and then ult at point blank.

GodlyBane1/26/2018, 11:30:55 PM3 votes

and the top laner that wins lane. 99.9% of the time unless ur bad at the game. You have to bad at the game to lose lane with urgot, not bad with urgot. Urgot W = Ornn W. You cant be bad with urgot, hes OP af

I think Urgot, Sion, and Warwick have been the best reworks Riot have done thus far. Can't comment on Swain yet since he's not released.

I'm someone who played old urgot.

RIP :(

I always hated Swain, but after his rework I think I might be a Swain main, because that looks amazing. The abilities are more complex (compared to Old Swain), and his artwork/design look awesome too. Honestly can't think of a rework that failed, or was worse the original product.

easily the best rework

I'm glad I bought the Battlecast skin with whatever leftover RP I had long time ago when they made it 50% off. Now I get to really enjoy this mechanical spider and his menacing arsenal.

his ult with ultimate hat should be illegal but goddamn is it fun

I miss old urgot, but new urgot is nice too. Good to see some of the newer players finally showing him some love now. even if he is crab bane now

I've been playing some Urgot recently to do my placements (gotta get that mission XP) and I've done extremely well and had a blast. Even I could carry with him, and I'm not the guy that usually carries. I honestly have no clue why he's not more commonly played. Really strong, really fun and really cool. In my last game I felt kinda bad for their Garen because I'd snipe him with my ult every time he tried to run away, maybe 7-9 of his 14 deaths were to my ult. I swear that ult is like pure crack, easily the most satisfying thing in the entire game.

"Metric shit-ton of effort.."

Here's your upvote.

YoungFarmer1/26/2018, 9:22:33 PM1 votes

Warwick isn't really commonly played though, hes been bouncing around at less than 5% pickrate since his release. That being said I agree urgot is cool af I love playing him.

His E is inconsistent so rip.

But his knees are actually flame throwers.

Bricky comfirms this post do to mentioning of shotgun knees

Rook Loux1/26/2018, 10:38:04 PM1 votes

Funny, his ult is probably my least favorite ability in the game. I legit despise this champ.

Huh, what are the odds? I was just thinking to myself, "I'd love to impale someone and pull them into my collection of saw blades."

Guess I'll give Urgot a go.

Yes, I love Urgot. He definitely fullfills one of my favorite character archetypes (cyborg monstrosity death machine) and he's super fun to play.
