Urgot new ultimate

honestly Urgot is not a bad champion, in fact he is pretty damn good. I once had only 3 kills as Urgot and 1 v 1'd a fed Vayne thanks to the ult and the passive. That being said the reason people do not play Urgot is because he does not have an identity. Is he a top lane fighter? AD carry? Tear stacking mid laner like Jayce?

There are two reasons Urgot has no identity in the game.

  1. His range- At only 425 Urgot can't stand up to other adcs in the bot lane forcing him to rely on his Q, E combo to trade well. Which consumes a lot of mana. So step one, increase his range to more like Graves range and remove the slow from shield to make it balanced.

  2. His ult does not make sense. It feels like a tanky initiation ultimate. A marksman would not want to teleport himself into the middle of a fight. He wants to poke and do damage from a safer distance.

So on to my idea for his new ult. something to control the battlefield better.

R- "Static Field Generator": Urgot launches a generator to a target location, upon arrival the generator creates a static field slowing and dealing damage over time. Enemies who step in the field get a debuff causing Urgots acid hunters to deal bonus damage. Debuff lasts for 6 seconds, field lasts for 3. Debuff can be cleansed or QSS'd.

Let me know what you think of the ult? Also what do you think of the range increase? Would these two changes make Urgot viable again?

Urgot show the big guy some love

Urgot's ult is NOT, under any circumstances, an initiation tool. It should be used for disruption of channeled abilities, positioning the enemy carry (or the biggest threat to the team in that fight, could be the tank, idk) in a bad spot, pulling someone who is retreating back into the fight, or just grabbing the tank stats to survive longer. His ult is just fine the way it is, you just have to be creative with it. Urgot is powerful when in experienced hands, and does not, in my opinion, need any rework. Maybe a few number buffs here and there.

As an Urgot main, I have gave great thought to what needs to be different about his ult. I agree his ult is not made to initiate a fight. I always use it to lock down enemy adc/mobile mid laner . While they are locked down we just blow them up. I do like your idea, but not sure how it fits with his kit. However, I do not have anything of value to add, so great idea! I am just glad there are other people out there that have love for Urgy!
