Favour timeline — who owns each window

StageFavouredWhy
Level 1TeemoUrgot's only level-1 threat is walking up to auto and activating Purge — Blinding Shot cancels both, so you own the first trade completely.
Level 2TeemoToxic Shot poison stacks compound through levels 2–3 faster than Urgot can sustain without pots, and his E range is too short to punish you at your auto range.
Level 3TeemoAll three basic abilities are online and your poison kite loop (Q blind, E poison, W disengage) leaves Urgot unable to proc Purge without eating full DoT rotations.
Levels 4-5Even / skillUrgot's tankiness starts absorbing your poison DoT without dying, and his Corrosive Charge slow makes positioning errors increasingly punishing — both players must play carefully.
Level 6Even / skillLevel 6 is more macro than duel power for Teemo — Noxious Trap seals choke points but Urgot's R execute threat means an all-in at low HP is suicide; play for map, not kill.
First itemEven / skillFirst item is approximately even: Liandry's Angueur ticks hurt on a high-HP Urgot, but his percent-HP Purge also scales — whoever is ahead in poke damage wins the coin flip trades.
Two+ itemsUrgotUrgot's percent-max-HP Purge and his bulk from completed items outpace your total poison damage per trade; avoid extended 1v1s and convert your lead into shroom-walled split pressure instead.

Early game (levels 1–5)

Urgot cannot trade at level 1 without walking into your auto range, so the second he steps up to CS, land Blinding Shot (Q) and let E Toxic Shot coat his approach. He has no dash to close gap and his Purge (W) only fires while he walks toward you — Q blind cancels every auto and leg-shot in that window, so he loses the exchange entirely. Respect one thing: his Corrosive Charge (Q) slow is a setup tool, not poke — if it lands, he will immediately try to E-flip you. Play slightly back of your usual poke range so Q slow alone cannot put you in his E cast radius. A poisoned Urgot who is also blinded and out of auto range simply takes free damage.
