| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Urgot | Level 1 you out-trade him before his passive and shield ramp. |
| Level 2 | Urgot | At level 2 your Q and Purge shred beats his single-target Q poke. |
| Level 3 | Urgot | At level 3 you keep winning short trades on his Q cooldown. |
| Levels 4-5 | Urgot | Levels 4-5 your Cleaver-less burst still out-shreds his shield stacking. |
| Level 6 | Urgot | At 6 you still win quick fights if you burst rather than sit in his kit. |
| First item | Urgot | First item, Grievous Wounds keeps his Indestructible heal small. |
| Two+ items | Mordekaiser | At 2-plus items his R sustain and AP scaling win the isolated duel. |
Levels 1-2 favor you: before Mordekaiser's passive and shield ramp, your Q execute and Purge shred out-trade his single-target Q. Punish him whenever Obliterate is down and don't let him land free E-pull extensions. Keep trades short and you build the health lead.

Start Doran's Blade + Health Potion and back for Executioner's Calling (≈800g) — cuts his healing. Build Black Cleaver (shred + the leg tempo) first, then Sterak's Gage, with Mercury's Treads.
