I hate using the standard D&D alignment system when comparing characters in League. Some of them are pretty obvious, but Karthus? He thinks he's doing a good thing with ugly motives. Zed and Viktor? They think he's doing the right thing as well, even though they get far less admiration than their main rivals (Shen and Jayce).

Sure, it's easy with some characters (it's pretty obvious Braum and Bard are genuinely some of the best characters in league moral-wise) but it gets more complicated when you consider actually people, ESPECIALLY the newer ones.

I wouldn't consider Jhin chaotic evil, but lawful evil. His obsession with art and the number 4 seems to qualify him as lawful.

EDIT: Would be great if someone could explain to me why the downvotes. ô.o Am I wrong? Isn't being lawful in that sense meant that the character has some rules he follows? That applies to Jhin, doesn't it?

I'll argue that Urgot is Lawful Evil.

He has his philosophy well-thought out, from its basis in Noxian strength-worship to his education is suffering is Zaun. In fact, he will gladly spend an entire game educating you in it.

The key point is that what defines a lawful character is that they motivated themselves by a moral code they are strongly aware of, even if that moral code is against the rule of law. This puts Urgot in the roughly the same boat as resistance fighters: both oppose the existing rule of law for ethical reasons, but anarachist like Urgot do not want to establish a new one.
