Cho Gath ate me 6 times and now I can't kill him, Nerf.

I can only assume this must be the thought process of the the people insisting cho Gath is OP.

Yes if you feed him he turns into the tank from hell and if he gets all his stacks he is huge.

Luckily we have item 3153, imagine that, a %hp item excels vs a guy that stacks HP.

Stop just always crying for nerfs and buffs to tailor the game to you because you refuse to adapt to certain champions and certain metas.

Im not saying you have to play the meta and you don't have to adapt, but don't bitch like you're owed nerfs or buffs.

This is why people hate LCS lol. If you see your favorite champion played in LCS, your first reaction is probably "FUCK! Now I gotta learn a new champion"

I dont understand what goes on in peoples heads sometimes. I read a thread by a plat 1 saying Darius is op and needs a nerf....next thing you know Garen will be on the chopping block...you know, for Demacia

People forget Cho'gath's classic weakness:

He's big and easy to CC, AND he's got 0 mobility

I'd hope someone like that gets to do tons of damage if he builds tons of damage

I want 8/0 as Cho this morning, against a Ziggs top. His jungler yelled at him for not helping when he engaged, but I was stacking MR like mad. Dear enemy Udyr, please understand that Ziggs does not hurt me. You didn't bring the right champion or items into this lane, lol.

Yeah, no, Cho is pretty broken, and has been for a while. He's going to get nerfed soon. Rupture is pretty easy to land, and it guarantees a silence will land... and with his R that's pretty much a 100-0 kill.

Hehe, I got baited in by the title seeming like a QQ thread. Well done.

i just wish ppl would stop their constant bitching about this meta its the best its ever been for a long time and if ppl cant use their brains to build according to situations than they shouldn't have the right to complain but we all know this wont happen since ppl are gonna find a way to bitch one way or another but still good post op

Woa i just got here. People saying Cho is OP are either unexperienced or simply seek to cause a commotion, just like this thread is about.

Either way, i'll let you guys to your things. Good day to you.

the problem with cho is he is extremely uninteractive. he ruptures? cool, you can dash out of it. or, he silences you beforehand, you eat the rupture, he walks up to you and then ults you.

i'm at the point now I just ban him out of games because he pretty much is unkillable in lane due to his sustain, gets very tanky through feast stacks and building RoA alone and just isn't fun to play against.

Some of the champs that people bitch about just are shocking.

In a game defined by mobility, a champ with delay on all of his abilities is now OP, after I recall reading for months (maybe even years) that due to said mobility he was "unplayable."

Do the complainers have any self-respect at all? There's some champs that I just can't fathom a long-time player would whine over.

As a person who plays Cho'gath, I feel he's an incredibly safe pick.

You get some pretty powerful early harass with his W, and you can kill almost any opposing laner at 6 any time you land a rupture (unless they're an incredible super tank like Sion).

There's a few people who give Cho'gath a lot of trouble in those early levels pre-6, and almost all of those people he can turn around and just suddenly kill with his level 6 burst. Even fewer still are the champions (Sion) who can both give him trouble AND not worry too much about his burst - and against those people Cho'gath can farm pretty safely with his good waveclear, and become an awesome tanky dude with a lot of damage for teamfights.

Is he overpowered? I don't know - I feel like he just always wins lane and becomes a monster every game, but I also feel there are way worse champions to have to play against (Vi).

Just my two (lowly) cents.

I should build Blade of the Ruin King on Syndra mid then.

I'm a Cho main so I'm a little biased here, I don't think he's OP. For most champs, how good they are depends on how good the player is with that champ. I consider myself a good Cho player, not a master of course I still have much to learn, but I still have trouble with certain champs. Yasuo and Gnar are probably the champs I have the most trouble with due to their ability to jump out of Rupture. For anyone actually having trouble with Cho, best thing I can recommend is watch for Rupture's cloud before it hits or just stand near the edge of it cause a bug Riot seems to ignore is that standing on the outer edges of Rupture has no effect on you. Don't let him get super fed either. If you see an enemy Cho on a killing spree, shut him down quickly. You don't want that monster in team fights otherwise.

You must be very delicious to get eaten by Cho'Gath 6 times.

yeah all these adc's switching back to IE+PD build like its season 1 again when you have a fucking percentage damage item LOL it's so dumb. I don't see anyone getting IE+ blade or just blade+ IE anymore.

It's like people stopped caring that tanks exist despite cinderhulk making tanks viable finally somewhere in the game.
