It just struck me that Urgot may have one of the best skillsets for jungling, because he has both great damage and great damage mitigation.


    He reduces incoming damage by 15% with his passive, which gives him higher health. It is a bit like starting with a free cloth armor when clearing blue.

    His shield would also help keeping his health high.

    When he has blue buff and can spam Q I'd imagine he would clear camps really quick.

    If the enemy overextends just a little he could take 200-300 hp off them if he gets missile lock.

    He has a strong semi-reliable slow to use for ganks.

    Once he reach level 6 his ulti will give a deadly gank at any lane.


It seems to me that most if not all of Urgots abilities would synergize great with jungling. If he gets some help killing blue he might not even need to start with cloth armor which would make jungling integrate perfectly into most builds.

PS: Have not tried this yet but will later.

Surely you have seen much worse jungling ideas then this one. He completes his route fast with high hp and he has lethal ganks.

DEWO's point is: Why change the perfect laning monster, and make him worse in the laning/jungling phase, by making him jungle?

IMO it's like putting Xin in the jungle. Sure, it can work, but why do it when he crushes whatever lane he's xin?

See what I did thar?

Could probably work, but Urgot is frikking boss in lane. I would only ever use him if you have a douchebag who wants to mid and wont let you and you need a jungle anyways so you might as well use Urgot. And at that point you could just q dodge.

The difference is, Xin's one of the best junglers going at the moment...

I doubt Urgot will be quite as good, and as said before, Urgot's WAY too good in a lane to be a mediocre jungler.

I outlane Urgot + Support in duo's all the time with Morde.

You can't compare huge damage with sustain in the laning phase.

Urgot is probably the best damage dealer in lane, but he's far from the best laner in the game.

I'd rank Lanewick higher.
Tri lane for life.

The difference being that WW is a god in the jungle, Urgot is far from that!
