Learn how to play with Cho'Gath with these essential tips.
Tags:
All
Hold back your own damage on Dragon, Herald, or Baron and let Cho'Gath finish the objective with his R — it deals massive true damage to monsters, making it one of the strongest objective-securing abilities in the game.
Late Game
Be ready to help Cho'Gath if he's invaded or collapse on contested camps with him — he struggles to duel early, especially before level 6, since he lacks strong dueling tools before his R comes online.
Basic Lane Phase
Follow up immediately when Cho'Gath lands his Q during a gank or skirmish — the 1-second knockup is followed by a 60% slow for another 1.5 seconds, giving a long window to chain your own crowd control or burst.
Skirmish Team Fight
Engage the moment Cho'Gath casts Q on a gank rather than waiting to see if it lands — the rupture takes just over half a second to trigger, so committing together closes off the window the enemy has to react or flee.
Lane Phase Skirmish
Look to set up more ganks once Cho'Gath hits level 6 — his R can execute enemies even after they've retreated to a sliver of health, punishing overextensions far harder than before.
Lane Phase
Let Cho'Gath take kills on jungle camps and minions when it's safe to do so — each kill grants a Feast stack (up to 6 from monsters and minions), building bonus health and size that make him a stronger frontline later.
Basic Late Game
Cho'Gath's W isn't stopped by projectile-blocking effects like Yasuo's Wind Wall or Braum's Unbreakable — engage through these barriers without hesitation, since his silence and damage still land.
