Urgot

Why is Urgot so underplayed? His harass is great, and he's pretty tanky, even more so when you take his passive into account. Edit: Holy necros

This is taken from a Diamond Urgot main's guide page Chimalpopica.

"What does Jayce do in team fights? Does he pull off one combo, then switch to hammer form and dive in to do? No; he pulls off multiple rotations of his abilities, and dives in if he can identify a target he can safely eliminate. This is what Gragas does, and this is what you should do. Position as an adc and get as many rotations of your abilities off as possible. You are not the initiator, so do not ult yourself into the enemy team, unless you meet the criterion in the Team Fights section of Hyper Kinetic Position Reverser.

Your tank should be shoving himself between your team and the enemy team, advancing or diving in, and taking the damage so the rest of your team doesn't have to. This is why the team (with a tank) that initiates in a stand-off can come up so far ahead if the damage dealers are able to follow up from behind.

If you can catch an opponent out with a Hyper Kinetic Position Reverser, it should be an easy pick-up—especially if your team collapses on that person. If it gets you in a bad situation, flash and ghost away if you deem it necessary.

If you opted for a more tanky build, then your play style should be different: you must become the initiator, and unless you have enough damage to take out an opponent, you should apply your passive to as many enemies as possible."

Its because he is so short ranged he needs to be tanky than other adcs to survive, and this lowers his damage. He might be more viable in other roles, but i have never tried it.

He's not an ADC EDIT: He can be played top

I recently bought Urgot and I can attest, he is loads of fun to play.

He falls off so hard late game, I think that may be part of the reason he's unpopular. People just need to play him top lane as a tanky bruiser and then he becomes viable.

But he doesn't really fall off late game. Compared to an ADC like Vayne or Caitlyn, yeah he isn't pushing out as much damage, but if you build armor penetration he still does appreciable damage from good range while also providing your team with incredible skirmish and team fight potential through his unique (and often underrated) utility. Honestly, I think he starts to shine during mid game and then he stays just as useful throughout the rest of the game.

Urgot lacks teamfight ability his W makes no since and his ult puts him in bad spots that his team must bail him out of. His passive is only good on focusing one target.

now i do love urgot dont mistake me. He does need some work thought i just fear there going to scarma him. I hope they keep his Q & E combo intact I have a form post on this and would love input from urgot players http://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/gameplay-balance/KRnbcQ53-urgot-update-ideas

They key is you WANT to be in front of them, you want to be in there then hit your w, the extra armor from your ult will tank the damage further with your w, make sure everyone gathered around you and use w, that way you can retreat and pick off others with your lock on. this is really good at base and a champs that leap like sujani, the lock on confirms the kill.

A good Change would be to make him less of and adc and more of tanky top or juggernaut like this guy said http://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/skin-champion-concepts/fkbNqsAn-urgot-rework
