Playing against Urgot
How to counter and exploit weaknesses
Stay out of his E flip range: it's his only engage and he flips you toward him.
When you're below the R threshold (visible indicator), don't stay in range: he can R2 to execute you.
His legs have individual cooldowns — fight from the same side so he can't use them all.
Urgot is slow with no dash (except E): kiting is very effective against him.
