Things To Consider When Playing Against Cho’Gath

  • Try to dodge Cho’Gath’s rupture (Q). It has a knock up and can enable him to go all in on you.
  • Be sure to deny him stacks on his Feast (R). The easiest way to do this is to kill him early.
  • For tanky champions, building HP makes Cho’Gath’s true damage ultimate deal less damage to you.
  • Cho’Gath has high CC but really low mobility, especially if he misses his rupture. Picking ranged champions (Vayne) against him and zoning him from the creeps to deny his heal can be very effective.
