Poppy vs Urgot

Updated Jun 3, 2026

Overview

Control the lane by denying Urgot safe spacing and punishing his low mobility with terrain-based engages.
Focus on anti-dash playstyle to block Urgot's engage attempts and prevent him from using (E) effectively.
This is a control matchup where Poppy must manage spacing and cooldowns to limit Urgot's execute threat.

Trading pattern

Trade around your passive shield and terrain, using (Q) for damage and slowing Urgot to control spacing.
Hold (W) to block (E) flip rather than using it prematurely.
Punish Urgot after he misses (E) or when his passive legs are on cooldown by stepping forward for short trades.

Danger windows

Be cautious when (E) flip is available, as it can set up heavy damage and shield.
Avoid extended fights when Urgot's passive legs are active around you, increasing his damage output.
Respect (R) execute window when you are low health to prevent sudden death all-ins.

Early game

Use early levels to position near walls and threaten (E) stuns to deter Urgot from committing.
Hold (W) to counter (E) flip and punish his engage attempts.
Use short trades with (Q) and passive shield to chip damage without overextending.

Power spikes

At level 6, use (R) to disengage or isolate Urgot before he can execute with his (R).
First tank item spike increases durability for longer trades and better peel against Urgot's damage.
Respect Urgot's level 6 (R) execute threat by avoiding low health and baiting his ultimate before committing.

Win conditions

Deny Urgot's engage by holding (W) and using terrain for (E) stuns to control trades.
Use (R) strategically to disengage bad fights or isolate Urgot during teamfights.
Outlast Urgot in short trades using your durability and punish his cooldowns to prevent him from scaling safely.
