How to Beat Jax as Urgot (Top)

The Urgot versus Jax matchup in the top lane is favorable with proper positioning. Use your statistical advantage and prevent the opponent from realizing their potential.

Except for rare builds, Urgot deals physical damage. Focus on eliminating enemy carries. Jax has mixed damage, be careful as it may be harder to defend if the opponent gets ahead or plays aggressively.

An important advantage of Urgot is higher farming statistics (ranked 22nd among role champions) (versus 50th for Jax), which provides a stable gold advantage in extended games and allows faster access to key items. Meanwhile, their lower KDA (1.6 versus 1.9) suggests they are less effective in team fights.

Key aspects of the Urgot Top versus Jax Top matchup

Despite the statistical advantage in the matchup, overconfidence can be the main mistake. It is important for the Urgot player to maintain constant pressure on Jax, not allowing the opponent to safely scale up, and actively use the advantage gained to help their team.

Urgot tips:

  • Pay attention to your individual leg's cooldowns, as they make for a signficiant portion of your damage
  • Land Corrosive Charge or Disdain to lock on to target's with Purge - a great way to trigger multiple legs in rapid succession.
  • Save Fear Beyond Death for opponents you know are already too weak to survive. It's especially good for picking off fleeing foes.

Playing Against Jax

  • Try to engage him in short bursts instead of going toe-to-toe with him. Preventing him from attacking consecutively drastically lowers his damage output.
  • Jax can dodge all incoming attacks for a very short amount of time and stuns enemies in melee range when it ends. Wait to strike him until after his dodge is finished.
