Who Wins

  • You lose early trades pre-6 due to Cho'Gath's superior range and poke with Q+E, but the matchup becomes more favorable post-6 when your R gives you kill pressure if he's below 50% HP.
  • Your sustain from passive and Q keeps you healthy, but his silence from W can interrupt your Q mid-cast.

How to Trade

  • Look for short trades using Q to gap close, auto-attack, then immediately back off before he can land Q knockup or full combo you.
  • Extended trades favor him due to his higher base damages and your lack of early game damage, so focus on quick hit-and-run patterns.

Wave Control

  • Let him push early since you can't match his waveclear with E, then look to freeze near your tower where you can run him down with ghost/flash if he overextends.
  • Avoid hard shoving as you'll be vulnerable to his Q+W+E combo when you step up to last hit.

Mistakes to Avoid

  • Don't try to all-in him early game even with your passive healing, as his base damages and silence will win extended fights before level 6.
  • Avoid fighting in his minion wave where his E will deal massive damage to both you and the minions, giving him both trade advantage and wave control.
