Who Wins
- You lose early levels 1-3 to Cho'Gath's superior damage and crowd control abilities.
- At level 6, you gain kill pressure with your ultimate and can start winning all-ins if you land it properly.
How to Trade
- You should trade with Q poke when safe, then use W-E combo only when Cho'Gath wastes his Q ability.
- Your passive shield allows you to absorb his burst and trade back effectively.
Wave Control
- You want to give up early CS to avoid Cho'Gath's Q-W combo and focus on farming safely under tower.
- Once you have Bami's Cinder, you can start pushing waves and looking for roam opportunities.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Never engage without your ultimate available as Cho'Gath's silence will prevent you from using abilities effectively.
- Don't stand in minion waves where his Q and W can hit both you and minions simultaneously.
