I play him as top, and probably a bit of mid, I really don't like to adc with him, you have a nice chance of fucking up your abilities which won't allow you to do that consistent damage ADCs should inflict. As a solo laner, he practically shuts down the opponent with little effort, his lane bullying is crazy and inevitable. His teamfighting isn't too amazing, since he can only focus a target at a time, but his splitpushing is hella good.
Still manamune lw and brut/black cleaver make him a menace against the squishies, not to mention his natural utility (gigantic amount of armor and mr late game as well as armor and damage reduction) makes tanks think twice about going for him, not to mention his tankiness late game won't allow them to primarely focus him down.
He's pretty easy to use, and combine that with practice and good mechanics, and he might become a pretty damn viable pick more than he already is.
As oracle said, people underestimate urgot, he sure has weaknesses, but mostly all of them can be neglected with good itemization and mechanics.
I'm just glad oracle brought up the topic of urgot the exact moment I decided to practice him after playing a couple games.
