How to win lane as Urgot against Malphite · 49.79% win rate over 1,402 Emerald+ games · Updated 2026-07-27
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Even / skill | Level 1 is even — his passive shield makes the first trade a wash. |
| Level 2 | Urgot | At level 2 you shred his shield and thin armor with Q and Purge. |
| Level 3 | Urgot | At level 3 your full kit out-trades his single-target Q poke. |
| Levels 4-5 | Urgot | Levels 4-5 you keep winning short trades on his Q cooldown. |
| Level 6 | Urgot | Your level-6 R executes him before his HP scaling matters. |
| First item | Urgot | First item your Cleaver-Purge shred still beats his armor stacking. |
| Two+ items | Malphite | At 2-plus items full-tank Malphite and his R teamfight utility overtake you. |
Level 1 is a skill start — respect his passive shield on the first trade and don't feed it for free. From level 2 you take over: Q's outer-ring execute plus Purge cut through his shield and thin early armor, and his Seismic Shard poke never wins a straight leg-shot exchange against your bulk.
