Learn how to Cho'Gath counter with these essential tips.
Tags:
All
Be extremely cautious when below 300/475/650 health (at levels 6/11/16) — his Feast is a point-and-click true damage execute that scales with AP and his bonus health.
Lane Phase Team Fight Skirmish
Trade frequently during the laning phase — Cho'Gath's passive heals him when he kills minions, so constant trading prevents him from healing freely.
Basic Lane Phase
Move perpendicular to Cho'Gath when you see Rupture's (Q) visual indicator — the 0.627-second delay gives you time to sidestep, which is more effective than running directly away.
Basic Lane Phase Team Fight Skirmish
Kill or zone Cho'Gath before starting Baron or Dragon — his Feast does more true damage than Smite, making objective steals a major threat.
Late Game
Spread out in team fights — Cho'Gath's Q and W are area-effect abilities that can hit multiple champions with knockup and silence effects.
Team Fight
Engage when his Rupture (Q) is on cooldown (6 seconds) — without his knockup, he struggles to land his W silence and E slows effectively.
Lane Phase Skirmish
Focus on pressuring Cho'Gath early game — each Feast stack grants him bonus health, making him exponentially tankier as the game progresses.
Lane Phase
Track Cho'Gath's size increase — it visually indicates how many Feast stacks he has, which directly reflects his health pool and ultimate damage.
Basic Lane Phase Late Game
Position behind minions when he activates Vorpal Spikes (E) — the spikes travel in a line and can be blocked, reducing their damage and slow effect.
