Who Wins
- You lose pre-6 due to melee form limitations and Cho'Gath's superior sustain and damage output in extended trades.
- Post-6 you gain some trading power with R, but the real shift happens at level 11 when you become ranged and can safely harass.
How to Trade
- Focus on short Q-E trades when his abilities are on cooldown, immediately backing away to avoid his retaliation combo.
- Pre-11, only take favorable trades when he's low on mana or has missed his Q.
Wave Control
- Play for safe farming and give up CS if necessary to avoid his Q-W combo, focusing on reaching your power spikes intact.
- After level 11, you can start to pressure him with ranged autos and abilities while maintaining safe distance.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't try to match his early game aggression or fight in extended trades where his passive healing gives him the advantage.
- Avoid face-checking bushes or overextending without R available, as his Q-W-R combo can easily kill you.
