Cho'Gath Stacking

Honestly I just dont understand why he can do what he does. I get that they want a sort of snowbally tank but they sort of got more than they bargained for. Why is he allowed to have 8.5k health when full build? Why does his ult damage scale off of health when health is what you get for using it. See the problems are that he does not lose stacks on death. People tell me to shut him down early so he cant get stacks, but thats hard to do when he can keep himself in the game just by ulting a minion, making him strong enough to start killing champions, or at least to not get killed. I understand that before the changes, it was stupid that he lost so many stacks on death, but he shouldnt be unable to lose any. At least make it 1 stack lost per death or something. Granted this is all coming from bronzie trash but Ive gotta think theres someone out there in slightly higher elo who agrees with me.

Here's the thing. Him losing stacks upon death meant a good team could keep a cho from ever getting to the point where he was a threat as a tank. It also meant that in ARAM he was one of the most useless tanks to have on a team because he'd lose all his stacks by doing the only thing that allowed him to get items. He does what he was meant to do, and does it well. The ultimate solution to fighting a cho is end the game as quick as you can. Otherwise you'll have to deal with the raid boss like you would a raid boss.

Cho can build full ap and stomp. Cho can build full tank and stomp.

You can't stop cho from getting six stacks period. It takes a poke and kite comp just to punish him.

While I support Riot for making it so Cho doesn't lose half of his stacks on death, killing him over and over was a good way to keep him in check all match long. Now he just grows and you have to deal with him every single time he respawns like a Raid Boss.

Forbid a massive immobile champion from being a threat at point blank range huh?
