And do this day there is no champion with anywhere NEAR the same feel as his E+Q combo
I cant think of any ability that is like his ult
241k Mastery points for a champ ive played 30ish times
What really kills me is that unlike a few other reworks that keep the core of the kit but he was literally trashed
"hrrnnnnnngg his w locks on to enemies" shut up
Yes, his old kit was overhauled because it was a steaming pile of horse manure.
You couldn't rework that previous kit. He was simply too weak and increasing damage, lowering mana cost, or other simple adjustments would leave him absolutely busted. I think Riot did what they had to do and changed him, but still kept him unique.
Land ability 1. Spam ability 2 for duration of ability 1 dot? Have you tried 
yet
I remember Old Urgot.
If I have anything to say about him is that gameplay-wise, he was pretty unique. While I can understand why his [E]+[W] combo had to be removed, it was his Ultimate that always stood out for me.
His Ultimate was just one of those abilities that could either swing a teamfight in your teams favor or Charlie Brown the user (Putting yourself in the middle of the enemy team with no backup). You could say that Urgot can still do this since he can still displace you with his [E: Disdain] & his [R: Fear Beyond Death] still carries an AoE Fear, but it doesn't feel the same.
Balance-wise, the version we have is alot easier for the Balance team to work around. Pumping in & taking away numbers wouldn't fix anything. Imagine if they pulled that with Old Yorick, pretty sure people would be upset if he had numbers pumped into him.
His old kit was broken af, why do you even want it back?
