Aatrox vs Urgot

Updated Jun 4, 2026

Overview

Use high lane pressure to deny Urgot a calm scaling lane by forcing him to farm under pressure.
Control spacing to chain (Q) sweet spots and sustain through extended trades, preventing Urgot from safely using his passive legs.
This is a snowball matchup where Aatrox must leverage lane bully identity to punish Urgot's lower mobility and ranged poke.

Trading pattern

Fish for (Q1) and use (E) to secure sweet spots, then extend trades only if (W) lands to trap Urgot or if (R) is active.
Punish Urgot when he commits into your (W) chain or when his (E) shield is down.
Avoid throwing all (Q) casts early without (E) repositioning, as missing them gives Urgot room to disengage and retaliate.

Danger windows

Respect (E) flip and shield; avoid engaging when (E) is up and ready.
Beware of (R) execute window on low-health targets; disengage or reset fights before it lands.
Urgot's passive legs cooldown creates moments where he can burst; avoid extended trades during these periods.

Early game

Pressure the wave early to force Urgot to last-hit under threat of (Q) sweet spots.
Avoid short trades after missing (Q1) or (W), as Urgot can punish your cooldowns.
Hold (E) to reposition for optimal (Q) angles and to escape (E) flip threat before level 6.

Power spikes

Level 6: Use (R) to amplify healing and chase potential, turning close trades into kills or forced recalls.
First fighter item: Pressure Urgot with stronger sustained (Q) trades and track his disengage cooldowns.
Respect Urgot's level 6 (R) execute threat by avoiding low-health extended trades without (R) active.

Win conditions

Control wave and spacing to chain (Q) sweet spots and trap Urgot with (W) to force extended fights.
Use (R) windows and first fighter item spikes to all-in and snowball lane dominance.
Deny Urgot safe scaling by forcing recalls and applying side-lane pressure to leverage Aatrox's drain tank and splitpush identity.
