Read from Akshan's seat: which stage windows this plan plays for against Urgot.
This is Akshan's own plan; across 908 pooled games the lane is leaning Urgot.
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Urgot | At Level 1 you have only Q and one passive shot, and his shotgun legs out-trade you hard if you step into point-blank range. |
| Level 2 | Akshan | Your second passive shot plus Q boomerang out-range his short shotgun legs, so you chip his HP bar while he can't reach you. |
| Level 3 | Akshan | Getting E (Heroic Swing) gives you both poke and an escape from his Disdain flip — you own the range war now. |
| Levels 4-5 | Akshan | Levels 4-5 are your strongest laning window: he can't close the distance and you chip his oversized HP bar for free. |
| Level 6 | Akshan | Fear Beyond Death reaches 2500, exactly like Comeuppance — you can't out-range it, so the race is who is lower. |
| First item | Akshan | Your Youmuu's lethality spike plus E-reset snowball bursts him before his tanky HP-scaling items come online. |
| Two+ items | Urgot | At two-plus items he out-scales your lethality — one Disdain into Purge range, then Fear Beyond Death, kills you outright. |
Urgot's early game is Corrosive Charge and his legs, but they're short-range — and contrary to what people think, Purge (W, 490 range) doesn't root him in place, he walks slowed while shredding. It also PRIORITISES champions he has recently hit with another ability, so eating a Q is what aims the shotgun at you. Stand outside that range and pepper his giant HP bar with Q boomerang and your double-shot passive. Fear Disdain (E, 475 range, 16s): it shields him on the way in and hurls you out of his way, so never trade beside a wall he can pin you against.
