Why is it deemed appropriate to buff chogath's damage

Tychusfindlay918··4 votes·1,699 views

Cho'Gath Vorpal Spikes (E) spike damage increased from 20/30/40/50/60 to 22/34/46/58/70

Why is this on the PBE. Have you forgotten that Chogath's damage potential as a tank has and continues to be fucking cancerous ever since the failed mini rework you gave him?

Dude, thats 2-10 damage. Cho is so far out of meta, any tank is far out of meta right now. Thank riot that its not a 10% ap scaling increase, which would 100-300 damage buff. This is literally 10 damage.

Its 6-30 damage because it applies 3 times on an AA enhancement that scales down to having almost zero downtime whatsoever. Its not anything remotely insignificant.

He has to get in your auto range. He will have at most 30 or 60 extra damage if at max rank, and the trade goes through two resets of his abilities. This doesnt even factor that the damage increase is still being negated by mr/armor. It's insignificant.

Tank? What’s that? No one in high elo or with a brain plays tank cho he just gets stomped on by conqueror. If you have a complaint take it up with conqueror and maybe cho and more tanks wouldn’t be getting these buffs if that were in a balanced state(it’s not).

Conquerer also has nerfs on the PBE.

I probably have 500 plus games on Cho'Gath and I can tell you right now that this buff isn't going to do anything for him, he needs more, Cho'Gath is Far from broken I play him every game in ranked and lose most of my games because there is no such thing as a tank in this game anymore. I could have all the items in the world to lower attack speed even 500 armour or magic resist and still get cut down by a master yi even with 7k hp. Anybody that thinks Cho'Gath is broken is a dammed fool. There is so much true dmg in the game that tankyness means nothing. Conquer is alot a amazing tank killer, it's so bad rn that any champion can take it and go toplane against a tank and just win. The True Dmg plus the healing makes you tankier and just better than any tank sigh

It's hard to believe anyone could play 500+ games on a champion with a concept as simple and straightforward as Cho'Gath and still have such little understanding of the character, what he's supposed to be, what he's supposed to do, and what the fuck you're supposed to do after you pick the Terror of the Void in champion select, but I suppose people like you continue to exist to defy my expectations, lol.

That being said, I'm glad they're buffing Cho'Gath, but this REALLY isn't the way to do it. What they should actually be doing is slightly increasing the AP Ration on Q and W, and maybe a slight bump up of either the AP or the Max Health ration on his ult. His E is actually fine how it is right now (although I do miss AS Cho'Gath quite a lot, especially when Sated Devourer was a thing, but those days are long gone, now).
