Urgot bullies you from level 1 — his passive shotgun legs and Q Corrosive Charge out-range your comfortable poke, and if you step up his W Purge shreds you instantly. Farm with Q Transfusion at max distance and never walk into his auto-attack range. He out-shields and out-sustains your early harass, so don't try to trade. This is a lane where you concede early pressure and play safe.
