Jayce vs Urgot

Updated Jun 3, 2026

Overview

Use Jayce's high early agency and ranged poke to pressure Urgot and deny him a passive scaling lane.
Focus on snowballing lane control through ranged poke and form swaps to prevent Urgot from reaching his mid-game power spikes.

Trading pattern

Poke first with empowered (Q) through (E) and only switch to hammer form to finish trades when Urgot is low.
Respect (E) flip; avoid engaging when it is available to prevent being caught and punished.
Punish missed (Q) poke or hammer form commits by Urgot with aggressive follow-ups or wave control.

Danger windows

Respect (E) flip and shield as a strong all-in tool; avoid committing when it is up.
Be cautious when Jayce's hammer form (Q) is on cooldown as escape options are limited.
Avoid extended trades near Urgot's execute range, especially after level 6 (R) is unlocked.

Early game

Start with ranged poke using (Q) through (E) to chip Urgot's health before level 6.
Avoid extended melee trades before landing poke damage and ensure mana efficiency.
Use wave pressure to crash waves and force Urgot into uncomfortable farm positions early.

Power spikes

Use Jayce's first damage item spike to increase poke threat and pressure waves aggressively.
Respect Urgot's level 6 (R) execute threat by avoiding low-health trades and maintaining spacing.
Exploit Jayce's mid-game poke siege power spike to control lane and set vision before engaging or sieging.

Win conditions

Use ranged poke and empowered (Q) to create health leads and deny Urgot safe farm.
Convert poke damage into lane control by crashing waves and taking plates before Urgot can respond.
Avoid unnecessary hammer form engages; only commit when Urgot is low and cannot punish back.
