Favour timeline — who owns each window

StageFavouredWhy
Level 1UrgotYou are the squishiest level-1 in the game and his W (Purge) plus shotgun-leg passive deal max-HP physical damage at point-blank — last-hit at auto range and give nothing.
Level 2UrgotHe out-trades you with Purge stacks while you have only Q and a single W point — concede CS and stay out of his lane-bully range.
Level 3KayleOnce your W heal and Q armor-shred are online you can start stabilizing, but a clean E-flip while your heal is down still kills you — trade only when his E is on cooldown.
Levels 4-5KayleDivine Ascent makes your autos ranged and R (Divine Judgment) makes you untargetable through his E-flip-into-R fear-execute — you finally own the kite.
Level 6KayleNashor's Tooth plus E (Starfire Spellblade) missing-health on-hits let your ranged AoE waves out-DPS a dash-less Urgot who cannot close the gap.
First itemKayleYour R invulnerability blanks his only all-in — eat the fear-execute window untargetable and walk away unkillable while he burns his cooldowns.
Two+ itemsKayleHe is an immobile finite-scaling bruiser with no dash; your fully ranged AoE kit kites him forever, so you hard out-scale him and the 54.77% winrate is yours.

Early game (levels 1–5)

Urgot's whole early game is point-blank: his W (Purge) and his shotgun-leg passive fire physical hits that scale with your max HP, so every second you stand in Purge range with no minions to body-block, he free-stacks damage on the squishiest level-1 in the game. Last-hit at the tip of your auto range and refuse to walk up — your Q (Radiant Blast) armor-shred poke is not worth eating a full Purge channel for. Above all, dodge his E (Disdain): the flip is his only gap-closer and it sets up everything, so keep minions between you so he cannot cleanly engage. Concede the CS, take the rent, and survive — you cannot stand-and-fight a lane bully when you have no range and no escape yet.
