Urgot as a Pathfinder character?

So a friend and I had this crazy idea of running a Pathfinder game in which the PCs will be LoL champs. This basically spiraled into us discussing different ways of creating the champs using the Pathfinder rules, with some 3rd Party material here and there. So far, we've managed to come up with some pretty decent ideas for a large number of champs.

Then, I got stumped...because I realized I have no freaking clue of what I would do with Urgot ...you know, that champ that everyone always forgets about. I guess I forgot about him as well, and then as I was going down the list, I noticed his name and was like "damn...that's gonna be tough!"

Anyone's got any ideas?

Some sort of Alchemist/insert ranged class of choice here maybe?

Multiclass Alchemist/Gunslinger and just flavor his shit appropriately.

You could make him Alchemist/ Necromancer or even do what me and my friends do and take existing classes and "merge them" into a sort of made up class

Alchemist is definitely a viable option. I had been thinking about it myself, because it does seem to fit some of his flavor. In our little project, we've been doing our best to focus on a champ's flavor, and not get too lost on merely the mechanics. While there are enough options in Pathfinder to recreate a lot of LoL abilities, sometimes you run into things that are impossible to do without bending/breaking/making up new rules. So by focusing on their lore, flavor and overall playstyle, we have found some interesting builds that work nicely and really fit the champ's style.

In Urgot's case, I think Alchemist could work, especially with some of the discoveries that alter the way his bombs work (i.e. acid bomb). I'm also trying to figure out what I would do for his Race though. I mean, he is definitely undead, is he not? Should I go with Human as base and then add some undead template on him?

What are your thoughts on this?
