Who Wins
- You win early 1v1s levels 1-3 through superior range, mobility with E, and consistent poke with Q boomerang catches.
- At level 6, you maintain advantage through Mega Gnar's crowd control and burst, but must respect Cho'Gath's R execute damage in extended fights.
How to Trade
- Your optimal trading pattern involves poking with Q while maintaining distance, then using W for movement speed to kite backwards when Cho'Gath approaches.
- In Mega form, look for E-W-Q combos when Cho'Gath is slowed or stunned, but avoid extended trades due to his sustain.
Wave Control
- Maintain slow pushes to keep the wave in favorable positions for kiting, avoiding hard shoves that give Cho'Gath free recalls.
- Control your rage bar to transform at optimal moments, preferably when the wave is in a neutral position to maximize trading windows.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't get caught in melee range without E available, as Cho'Gath's W silence prevents your escape tools.
- Avoid transforming into Mega Gnar when the wave is pushing toward you, as the reduced mobility makes you vulnerable to ganks and Q predictions.
