Favour timeline — who owns each window

StageFavouredWhy
Level 1Even / skillYou have one turret and no CH-3X stun at Level 1 — but Urgot is just as slow and immobile, so neither of you can punish before the nest and his leg-shotguns come online.
Level 2HeimerdingerYour second H-28G turret plus the slowing electron beams force him to take chip just to walk in and fire Purge, and he can't trade that back yet.
Level 3HeimerdingerA two-turret zone with electron beams out-DPS-es his early leg-shotgun poke as long as he has to step into your nest to deal it.
Levels 4-5HeimerdingerThe full three-turret nest plus the CH-3X center-stun deletes any Disdain flip-in mid-channel — this is the lane he most has to respect.
Level 6UrgotFear Beyond Death (R) is built to kill an immobile yordle: he chains you, recasts to suppress, and drags you back through his Purge leg-shotgun spray.
First itemEven / skillYour siege and the UPGRADE!!! super-turret still hold the lane, but a tanky Urgot can now eat a few beams to land his flip.
Two+ itemsUrgotHis percent-max-HP leg-shotguns plus Death's Dance / Sterak's win the sustained slug-fest — he out-stats the turret economy once items arrive.

Early game (levels 1–5)

Urgot's leg-shotguns deal percent-max-HP, but at Levels 1-3 he has to walk into your nest to fire them — and your second turret plus the slowing electron beams punish every step. Drop turrets in front of the wave so each last-hit eats beam damage, and chip him with W-rockets from outside his Corrosive Charge (Q) range. Don't get greedy at Level 1 before your CH-3X stun exists — his Disdain (E) flip into point-blank Purge is the one window where he out-trades you.
