How to play it

Dodge his E
His E chunks 60% or more of your HP on hit: everything in this lane hinges on sidestepping it.
Your trade window
Taunt + dragthrough, start hitting, then sidestep preemptively as the taunt ends: most Urgots spam E while CC'd and its long cast time lets you dodge it.
Level 1
If he plays passive, sneak minion autos to hit level 2 first and taunt in; if he plays it right, let him push you in and wait for level 3.
Never force a trade with his E up unless you're confident you can sidestep it: get hit and it's usually RIP.
