Read from Malphite's seat: which stage windows this plan plays for against Urgot.
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Even / skill | Corrosive Charge pokes from 800 to your 625 and Echoing Flames adds leg blasts to every auto, and at level 1 you have no trade pattern to answer either. |
| Level 2 | Urgot | Roughly even only because you can sit at max range and refresh Granite Shield between charges — you cannot trade back, but he cannot all-in you yet either. |
| Level 3 | Urgot | With Corrosive Charge, Purge and Disdain all online he wins any extended trade, so he owns the wave while your buttons are still too weak. |
| Levels 4-5 | Urgot | Thunderclap's armour and Ground Slam's flat-7s attack-speed cut let you farm through Echoing Flames now — but it is parity, not dominance, so keep baiting Disdain. |
| Level 6 | Urgot | Disdain is his only reposition at 16s, so once it is spent Unstoppable Force is guaranteed — that is the all-in pressure you lacked. |
| First item | Urgot | Your first armour item plus Thunderclap’s armour-scaling on-hits out-trades Echoing Flames, and that same armour grows Ground Slam’s damage at once. |
| Two+ items | Malphite | Armour and your R let you dictate every fight — but Purge has no cooldown at rank 5, so never stand inside 490 trading until Fear Beyond Death can execute you. |
Levels 1-3 belong to Urgot and you accept it. Corrosive Charge (Q) pokes from 800 to your 625, and Echoing Flames — his passive, not his Q — adds leg blasts to every auto and to Purge. Purge (W) is an active on 12s at rank 1, and the tell is in its own text: it slows Urgot while it fires, so a committed Purge is a slowed Urgot at 490 range. Do not walk into Disdain (E) while Thunderclap and Ground Slam are still locked; a flip pre-6 is a full combo you cannot answer. Farm, hold the shield, wait for your buttons.
