Riot you said that cho'gath would receive some more attention in the future after changing his w. Is there any changes incoming for the future. It was quite a considerable nerf. Just looking for some updates. Thanks!

From what I've seen, there will be a tank update in the future (much like the mage, assassin, and marksman update). I think it is safe to assume that Cho'Gath is on the roster for it.

I don't think that ChoGath is considered a tank. He's listed under Unique Playstyle, so I don't think they'd include him in any roster update.

I thought they buffed his w when they changed how its cast

Not a buff at all I'd call it quite a nerf as w is now near impossible to land in scenarios that before it would hit

But they lowered the cooldown and increased the range

While I fully agree with the change to W that reduced its reliability (an ability that can strike a target even after they have left the area of effect is not conducive to counterplay), I'm not convinced he was compensated enough for how difficult it is to land most of his abilities. Whether or not you put faith in win rates to dictate a champion's balance, Cho'Gath has been significantly worse off since the changes. I'm not sure what you can do to improve him, but he needs attention for certain.
