Read from Urgot's seat: which stage windows this plan plays for against Irelia.
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Even / skill | Level 1 is even before her Q stacks and E stun come online. |
| Level 2 | Even / skill | Level 2 favours Irelia once Bladesurge resets let her kite your Q range. |
| Level 3 | Even / skill | Level 3-5 favours Irelia as stacked autos and W out-sustain your Purge. |
| Levels 4-5 | Urgot | Levels 4-5 stay hers with resets and E-stun all-in pressure. |
| Level 6 | Irelia | Level 6 favours Irelia because she can Bladesurge or W out of your R setup. |
| First item | Even / skill | First item favours Irelia as full stacks and E-into-R burst you before you scale. |
| Two+ items | Urgot | With 2+ items you win — your HP and shred outlast her and R punishes her melee commit. |
Level 1 is a skill lane before her Q stacks and E are online — trade with Echoing Flames autos and don't let her get free passive stacks. The moment she has Bladesurge resets, though, the lane tilts: she dashes through minions to dodge your Q and her stacked autos out-sustain your trades, so play safe and farm rather than forcing.
