Some thoughts on the new Urgot

  1. He will be played in the jungle a good chunk of the time. He has lots of splash damage to clear the camps, and quite a bit of CC for ganks (to say nothing of his damage).

  2. Urgot will become a staple of combos in competitive play. Warwick can scout low HP targets, ping their locations, and an Urgot with mobis can hunt them down for an easy ult shot into the fog. Ziggs+Urgot makes for a one-two punch of long ranged death.

  3. If Purge applies on-hit effects, we are all doomed. Muramana, Pix, and Bloodrazor would all be terrifying on a champion who attacks that fast (as we saw with Koggles).

  4. His top laning is going to become very dangerous. His passive will auto-push the lane, leading to Urgot getting ganked. He's got mobility now, sure, but Disdain has a pretty short range. His attack range being 350 and his W slowing him doesn't exactly help matters any.

  5. (Something I am very saddened by) Morgana willl probably see an increased pick rate. If a preemptive black shield stops Urgot from reeling anybody in, she is a strong counter, and her Binding lets Urgot get an easy shot, so she also works well with him.
