Early game (levels 1–5)

Urgot owns levels 1-3: Corrosive Charge (Q) plus his shotgun-knee passive chip you before your Q rotation exists, and his W Purge shreds you if you facecheck. Even at 3 his sustained shotgun trades out-poke your just-online kit, so farm patiently, dodge his shells, and don't walk into Purge range without a plan. Your E charges are for dodging his poke here, not for chasing.
