Favour timeline — who owns each window

StageFavouredWhy
Level 1Even / skillUrgot's level 1 Q poke outranges your melee kit and his shotgun legs deal percent-HP — last-hit safely and do not gift him free autos.
Level 2RenektonE-in at level 2 lets you land empowered W before Urgot can Disdain-flip you; his flip has a reaction-time window you must beat.
Level 3RenektonFull kit online — E-W-Q into disengage on the second E before his W cycles again; your Q heal covers the shotgun-leg damage you take.
Levels 4-5Even / skillShotgun legs tick percent-HP across every extended trade — keep exchanges short, disengage before the second W window, and do not stand in his W cone.
Level 6RenektonDominus HP absorbs a full Urgot rotation and rapid Fury generation means back-to-back empowered Ws; this is the one window you clearly own solo-kill potential.
First itemEven / skillFirst item evens the damage trade but his percent-HP scaling keeps every extended fight dangerous — force fights on your E-W-Q tempo, not his sustained pattern.
Two+ itemsUrgotUrgot's percent-max-HP shotgun legs scale with the bonus HP you stack, and Disdain into execute R ends isolated fights; rotate and close out the game rather than 1v1-ing him.

Early game (levels 1–5)

At level 1 neither side has a decisive edge — respect Urgot's Q poke and do not stand in his Purge (W) shotgun-leg range, because even early it ticks percent-max-HP. The moment you hit level 2, run your E-in, empowered W-stun, Q-heal pattern before he can respond with Disdain; his flip is your biggest threat and he needs a moment to react. At level 3 you have your full kit and can sustain through his Q poke with each Q heal — extend every short trade you win and disengage on the second E before shotgun legs rack up too many ticks.
