The best part of playing old Urgot was seeing people get bullied out of lane by 1000 homing Qs when pretty much all of the community thought he was completely worthless and irrelevant. He wasn't broken by any means, but he still had the tools to destroy certain matchups, even if no one thought he was even playable. Old Urgot always has a special place in my heart for that.

Urgot was my main before the rework and since his change I haven't been able to find a new main to statisfy what old Urgot brought to the table, although Zeri, Ezreal and Askhan come somewhat close to what I liked about his old kit. New Urgot is fun but not the same, He's a Juggernaut with ranged qualities while the old version was a Caster Marksmen with tanky qualities also for those wondering, Zeri and Ezreal are like old Urgot cause of the Q and Akshan is like old Urgot for his up-close abilities (passive and hookshot)

"Juggernaut with ranged qualities" and "Caster Marksmen with tanky qualities" is an excellent way to put it. It's funny how he retains so many elements of his old kit but by simply moving them around a bit his role is effectively reborn. I do kind of wish Urgot had something in his kit to follow up long distance ults with. I know balancing would be tricky, but what I think I miss the most is firing off those crucial shots on a high priority and fleeing target. (bonus points if they're hidden in the fog of war but it doesn't matter because you're in their head almost as much as these chainsaws are about to be)

The thing I hate about riots reworks is that before these champs had 3-4 ways you could play the champion. Old urgot could be an adc, tank, bruiser, and support. Now he's just a death ball top laner. I used to only play champions with near zero % play rates like old sion, galio, and urgot... I don't think I've done maybe 10 games of new urgot or galio combined. New urgot has none of the jank, or ugliness that I loved. I also feel like there's a lot less skill expression in new urgot since everything revolves around your W.

@uknlogic2924 2 жыл бұрын

Honestly riot should implement "retro" versions of Champs for dramatically reduced BE. The Champs will retain their stats/abilities pre reworks and if they truly do negatively impact the game-they can always be adjusted. Not like rework adjusted (clearly), but add ability interactions within their kits. Like for example, if retro warwick's scent ability was on cd (ain't no way that shit is staying a toggle) hitting enemies with your q will reduce the cd.

@GrandBenja Жыл бұрын

Yes, that's what was so interesting with Urgot. You could adjust your role based on how the game was going. If you had a fed adc, you could use your ult to swap assassins away, and use your E to decrease the enemy tank's armour - thus increasing your adc's damage. If the enemy adc was fed, you could go full tank and ult them into your team. If you had a poke composition, you could play ad caster, with muramana / black cleaver / last whisper. You could lane top, mid, bot, solo bot… I often went solo bot if the enemy team had a vulnerable top-laner à la Nasus, since Urgot could lane somewhat decently 1v2. Urgot was all about analysing a game state, and fill the role your team needed in a specific situation. He was one of those high-IQ champions, without a defined role, that Riot doesn't seem to like. My standard build was Black Cleaver into full tank, but as I said, it could vary a lot depending on the game state. I liked his character, too. He felt so "dead". He was undead, as a few other champions, but even in undeath, he felt dead. He had this aura of desolation, endless suffering. He was such a sinister champion. I quit LoL when he was reworked. Hey, I guess it was a good thing for me. I've had a better life since then. My career got somewhat successful, compared to my LoL days. ^^

@SpookSkellington 2 жыл бұрын

Old Urgot's ult was kinda nutty. It didnt have any synergy with the rest of his kit, but giving yourself 50% damage reduction (back when damage was alot lower than it is now) is really strong. Also you could give yourself a decent shield during that making you even tankier. Everyone just assumed you were an adc so they wasted everything on you after the swap.

@MrFraudL 2 жыл бұрын

Old Urgot's ult gave me some of my favorite play patterns. One that would come up often would be its use when dueling fizz. At max rank his ult gave 120 Armor and 120 MR, so you would q/auto fizz, to apply 15% damage reduction from passive, then when he ulted, you would w for shield and ult him right before his ult went off. This would break your channel but would reduce a huge amount of his burst due to the 120 MR + 15 % damage reduction + W shield.

@meowkitty4849 Жыл бұрын

Damage wasn't lower but in fact was nearly double what it is now. You should go read what the old infinite edge did. The lifesteal threshold was also triple what it is now. So squishier champions could last forever if you didn't have enough damage. For the longest time blind pick was the only mode in the game when queuing. Which meant no bans. Which meant when riot decided to release something like xin zhao you saw him every single game. There was less a problem with Urgot and more that the players were so garbage at the game at the time that they couldn't understand blatantly broken mechanics. Back in the day there was a potion that gave you true sight permanently until you died. People still thought stealth was op despite their stealth not working if you bought the oracles potion. Back then buff potions stacked with each unique instance of itself. Meaning you could buy every buffing potion and oracles potion. They stacked.

Man, do I miss playing AD Malzahar with Black cleaver before the rework and the mini-rework after that. It was basically impossible to play him that style since they changed the damage from the voidlings into magic damage while they would originally deal physical damage. Doing so meant that you could spam those little bastards, and they would shred toplane like paper. This meant your abilities would then become utility and command skills, as you would mark your malefic visions on the target you wanted them to focus, silence them so they couldn't escape, and ult to hold them longer in place, dealing % max hp while the voidlings ate them alive. I'll always remember you

@Torque_Mk1 2 жыл бұрын

I can't fathom why Rito left AD scaling on Voidlings when they gutted AD build like a fish with the dmg type change. To laugh in our faces? Make the Voidlings deal adaptive dmg or something like that. Rito didn't know how to balance supp Malza, so they absolutely demolished Voidlings cast range and survivability. I loved playing AD Malza in the jungle. Now it's not even an off meta build, it's straight up trolling, since you can't even itemize properly. BC was a core item, with AD, Cdr and armor shred. Now armor shred is useless, since you only proc it on autos, Malza is a kiting machine, and you rarely hit autos with AD build. Never forget, never forgive.

I do because I played him on S6 before the rework. It was just an steroid as far as i remember and definitively a very uninteresting hability compared to the new one. That doesn't mean his W wasn't interesting as a debuff, nor that i and lots of other Taric mains like his new Q or that W is eating too much of his power budget. I definitively prefer his new aesthetic but i don't think either kit is that enjoyable to begin with. I prefer the fluidity of the new passive, neither version of his E are that pleasant to use (Too boring vs Too unreliable), i prefer the old Q and W and finally I prefer the new R.

I mained Urgot before the rework. I have to say what I miss the most is the flexibility in his playstyle. There was always something you could do to win a fight with the old Urgot. If you were behind you would have to weaken the enemy with some poke before going in. And if you were ahead you could easily switch to a more agressive playstyle by getting closer and weaving some autos between your q's before e-r'ing for that guaranteed e hit into a kill. I only played old urgot as a full lethality adc botlane making people spam questionmarks in champ select and in game. But it at least got me to diamond. Those days are gone now with newgot, so I definitely miss my old crab friend

some of my favorite memories of this game were when i was getting into old urgot before the rework was on the way and building lethality on him. it was disgusting and beautiful. also i will say in regard to his abilities ... it is pretty weird that hey changed his ultimate. the new ult actually seemed more appropriate for old urgots range. the old ult seems more appropriate for urgot finding his way in the middle of a team fight and causing destruction with his shot guns.

@icefreztom9848 2 жыл бұрын

Lethality Urgot was great indeed! I remember I started playing him close to the announcement of his rework as well, both top (If I recall correctly, I was building muramana + fighter), and mid (lethality), and he was so powerful I started thinking people wasn't playing him only out of visuals. Then I noticed how people didn't like the ultimate, and I did dislike it at first as well, but once I started using it when either enemy or ally jungle ganked, it gained way more value, as it would displace myself for the enemy to fail combo, or secure the enemy for my allied jungler. Urgot and Evelynn are the two champs I wish had only a visual update/rework (I liked playing Evelynn sometimes, I really prefer old visual version of Evelynn), I couldn't get used to their reworks so I just ended up with less champions to comfortably play with. Useless fact 1: Old Urgot was also "broken" for URF, 1~2 E casts landed and enemy would just die from W+Qs, turret gone at around 5 minutes if done well. Useless fact 2: I got him to mastery level 7 on the match right before the client started downloading the patch with the rework. Since I don't play new Urgot, it's just meaningless now!

Loved your take on Urgot. I've played old and new Urgot quite a lot in the past. Though I never really thought much about their kit and their differences/similarities. Just simply that Old Urgot's ult really felt out of place (But was admittedly fun to mess with). I may not touch League too much today, but I'll definitely be watching you to quench my thirst for nostalgia. I do have a request if you can ever get to it one day, however. Do you think you could do a video like this with Yorick? I was quite ashamed with how little old Yorick was looked at in the past. He was so untouched, it felt like nobody but me knew his abilities. Whenever I used his ultimate on an ally, they would be 'revived' and then start running away, unaware that it was temporary. I bet you that a large percentage of old players aren't even aware that Renata's W was inspired. I hoped that a full on rework would make people enjoy him again. It sort of worked, bringing a bigger crowd to the new Yorick - And even I was enjoying the new kit. Though I will admit, I was not expecting them to remove the flavor of each ghoul, as that's what I was in love with. It'd be nice to see someone else's take on this. Thank you!

I loved playing old Urgot anywhere, but as a support it hit different. You had lots of moderate utility for your adc that allowed them to stay alive against most of the assassins, thanks to your ultimate and passive. The slow from your W was decent and the armor shred from E helped to amplify their damage. The coolest part was the laning, though. I was going Q > E > Q just to get a hit on the enemy adc with E and then spam my Q until they would get kicked out of lane. It mostly didn't result in a kill, but kicking the enemy adc out of the game so early on was pretty good. Then it was easy to pick up kills by level 6 and I can remember that ultimate's range going higher by each level on it, to the point of way more range than a flash. You could simply click on the enemy adc on any teamfight and they would get thrown into your team while you were fearing theirs and receiving some resistances. I hope I could play him again with the new support items like the AD version of spellthief

Thank you so much for making this video. No fucking bullshit propaganda, no disguised hate speech, just truth and facts from someone who actually knows what they're talking about. You COMPLETELY hit the nail on the head with the similarities between the old and new, especially with the way the ult functions similar to being locked onto and slowed with the W empowered Q's. Just a great video in general, and thank you so much for creating content like this- There's so much misinformation that people spread about these old champions. They just listen to what they hear from everybody else and present it as fact without a care in the fucking world. I honestly clicked on this video expecting something similar, but I was so, SO surprised to actually finish watching the whole thing with a good feeling in my heart. Thank you for making this, and I hope you continue to make more quality and informative content in the future ♥ I know this is already long, but I'm just really damn happy that Urgot didn't end up getting deleted from the game like Yorick and Galio. I was almost positive they would destroy nearly every aspect of him, but to see the guy come out relatively unscathed was just.. It felt like a huge victory that no one could ever take away from me. Unlike with Galio and Yorick, they really understood Urgot, and really knew how to best preserve his kit while choosing to push him closer to the role of Juggernaut.

i really liked old Urgot and what youve said has pretty much been my feelings on his rework :) that said id be excited to see a new champ get the long range version of Old Urgot E+Q+Q+Q(+Q) its similar to a very "Raw DPS race" feel~ like sometimes on Kog maw you just need to stop and unload onto an enemy instead of wasting time kiting, as well as Cassiopia who just gets healing and daage for a Q+E+E+E-ect but yeah i really liked the rework even though i was becoming a sort of urgot main just before, only reason i dont play him more now is because top lane is no fun :P

I still stand by the statement that if you're going to completely rework a champion, even if there is some semblance to the current champion and you can kind of piece together the old champion concept in the new champion..... Just maka a new champion. What the old players keep their janky weirdness for the very small number of people that like him and create the new champion with the new kit. There really is no reason for it to have to be this way. But at the end of the day riot does what riot does. I very much enjoyed urgot before the rework. I also enjoy him after. I honestly just wish I could play both. This goes for a lot of champions that were reworked though. People like to point out mordekaiser and his dragon, but I remember the real old mordekaiser and man do I fucking miss him.

Old Urgot is, I believe, the only champion I ever got a Pentakill on. I loved watching Chimalpopica, his videos taught me to play Old Urgot. I rarely play League these days, and I don't play Urgot anymore. He went the same way as the other champions I used to play pre-rework, Yorick (I don't apologize), Irelia, Akali and Poppy. Rest in peace you old janky kits.

Ah, nostalgia. Probabky could've mentioned Urgot's brief stint ib competitive too. I heard secondhand that Urgot did laned solo on bot after being given blue buff level 1 for a bit back in Season 2, and he had a while as a Zed counterpick in mid lane some time around season 5. You also missed the aoe fear on his old R, and that it was preserved in the rework, but that was a late addition to pre-rework Urgot anyway

@TheVictor126 2 жыл бұрын

I've started playing urgot right after the 1st urf, it was one of the most broke champs there so I started playing it it was a really weird champ, that's enough to say, you could pull up impossible 1v1s or 1v2s with the ult tankiness, or get picks, the E with black cleaver was such a good interaction, you would melt armor, deal damage and reduce enemy damage, with muramana you would have the extra oomph needed that the base damage lacked

This series has great potential, I have found memories of picking up Poppy a few weeks before the rework was announced.

I miss having a 500 dot e that was huge in size while being able to shred armor along side black cleaver while also having homing qs at about 1000 range that slowed on w activation.

The current urgot feels like some limpy juggernaut that has short ranged autos and kinda hopes people can walk near him to do damage

I came to lol from DotA, and in DotA there is such a hero as Vengeful Spirit. In fact, this is almost one to one old Urgot. And I was comfortable playing it, although many did not understand when I took it. When Urgot was remade, I was at first upset, and then I was delighted with the rework. now this is one of the most unique, strong and at the same time not imb characters. The hero has perfect balance at the moment.

Another important fact about old Urgot is that if you landed his E you'd just have to point your Q at the general direction of your enemy, which means that you could Q enemies that were hidden in fog of war as long as you were aiming within a certain radius from that champion.

The very first skin I got from a chest, was battlecast Urgot. As a (back then) new player I never saw or heard of (old) urgot and neither did my friends that startet relatively close with me. I mainly played him on twisted treeline since I wasnt sure if I should play him top or bot. I didn’t main him either, my main was naut top, but urgot was in my top 5. I prefer the new urgot he fits the playstyle I enjoy nowaday perfectly. (I main Mord, Voli and Urgot) When the rework first released I was a bit sceptical but a game later I fell in love with the champion, same goes for mord and Voli.

One small fact about the old Urgot... When you got Marked from his E, it doesn't matter, if he had Vision on you, as long as he knew were you stand, he could put the Cursor on that Position and Use the now Point and Click Q.

I was never intrigued by Old Urgot... but when the rework hit live... I had a moment of clarity... I used to run Cho Gath top either ap or tank according to match up... but i always felt sad, it was either maximum damage or maximum tank nothing in between... While New Urgot, offered the true balance, you are both a tank and a damage dealer... a skirmisher and an assassin... a frontliner and a backliner all at once... That's why I mained him since his new rework. And I am in love with his playstyle to the point that I became an OTP Urgot

Played old Urgot in botlane as a sort of tankier Ezreal in some patches to counter assassin meta. Worked much better than expected. Imagine a Zed ulting onto you as the carry. And then you just ult him (you're standing right next to each other!) so you're essentially malz-ulting him for your team to kill. Same for the old Talon and Akali. Generally I saw him more as an anti-assassin than an anti-carry.

Urgot was my first main champion back in season 2, and even before muramana was a thing he was one of the only champions that could actually make tear of the goddess work (and obviously, he needed it.) Small side note, Urgot actually couldn't squeeze in a 4th Q at max CDR until Riot added the +5% cdr cap rune allowing you to reach 45% cdr. Before that, his cooldown was just barely too long for a 4th Q, even at 40% cdr. And yes, black cleaver was the absolute dream item for him. But you know what else was? Hextech gunblade, due to the spell vamp allowing him to heal from his cross-lane Qs. It was a much simpler game back then - being able to heal from your spells dealing damage was a rarity and considerable luxury usually reserved for the rare champion that could build spell vamp items and use them effectively, such as old Mordekaiser.

Can you do one on Taric? Before he used to be walking point and click stun/buff bot for his team that reset his abilities like Lucian, but he's now this new weird support juggernaut who gets kited endlessly, poked repeteadly until all his mana is drained and only really useful when his teammates can dive in and stun for him, the only situation in which he's good is when he's getting constant resets on his passive but that's impossible to do against ranged champions in botlane and even more impossible in heated teamfights without any mobility or reliable cc.

I've been an urgot main since season 3. Although I'm not playing league anymore, When I tried his post-rework, he felt more complete and I didn't have vague problems when building him. I also totally agree that his original kit was preserved in his rework.

@pj_ytmt-123 2 жыл бұрын

Only played the new version. Urgot's passive shotguns are really strong but the reason I didn't main him is because his ult though very long-range has a narrower width than Blitzcrank's q making it easy to dodge. Rek'sai's ult is based on similar execute concept and is undodgeable (but she has to mark target + dive as trade-off). Also it sometimes felt like Urgot needed babysitting to get to lv 9 (literally EVERYONE maxxes w first).

I was the top 4 best urgot in the world and the best Brazilian urgot player, I was master and this rework really killed league for me. I still have 600k of mastery with him and I can assure you that it was the old one. I was really in love with this champion, I studied him a lot, made calculations about his kit, watched all of chimalopopica videos and started streaming only playing him on diamond/master in Brasil. I loved to counter some champs such as renekton, zed and vayne. I played him with flash and ghost and learned how to use that ultimate to be effective and mortal. I do remember one time I swapped a fed ad to inside my base and my team and I killed him and won the game. Since then I'm against any rework and if a chamo does bad, just make another champ, or put a new version allowing you to still play the old one. It does make me sad. Thanks for the kind video.
