Boom. Cho'Gath got gutted. No- Not even gutted. They fucking ripped his asshole inside out and poured acid all over it. He's dead.

FUCKING DEAD. I don't even care how many downvotes I get for this- This is disgusting, and there is absolutely no reason whatsoever this should be done to a champion, especially to one WHO'S ALREADY WITHOUT A DOUBT WEAK.

If he can kill someone with an ult that does no damage. Also, they reverted the infinity scaling HP, so yeah.

Isn't his ult like 1k true damage?

They're taking off the AP scaling on it. ALL of the AP scaling, so no, Cho'Gath's ult is hardly gonna do any damage now.

he's getting bonus hp scaling true damage.

This also means that it scales multiplicatively with item 1401 item 1409 item 1413

item 1052 20 ap costs 435g item 1028 150 bonus hp costs 400g

they are changing the damage from 70% ap to 12% bonus hp so

20 * .7 / 435 = 0.03218390804

150 * .12 / 400 = 0.045

so basically for every 1 gold you spend you're getting about .013 more true damage assuming you get nothing but ap and hp. Just comes down to the actual itemization and as jungle he's going to have the option of going item 1401 which is 400 hp + a 15% bonus hp buff plus lets say maybe 2 stacks of his passive so 100 * 2 = 200 so 600 + 15%= 690 so basically 700 after runes and masteries, more actually but lets keep going. Now you've got the 12% ratio, that's 700 *.12 = 84 true damage with no damage items for 2625g whereas before if you built item 3089 you'd get 120 ap + 35% = 162 ap then times .7 so you get 116 damage for 3800.For another 1200g he'd need 162-84 = 78 78 / .12 = 650 more bonus hp to about match that. item 1011 is 380 hp + 15% = 437 hp

So it looks like the damage is only really reduced heavily if you used to do shitty cheese builds.

yeah yeah, Cho gath doesnt just do damage with his ult, you dont get any damage on q, w or e with hp. The "shitty" build is tank, there are lots of tanks with more mobility AND better cc than Cho'gath.

Everyone seems to think Cho should be built tank, especially ingame. The cinderhulk calculations arent relevant tbh with Cho getting a full ult cooldown on monsters. Theres no point building tanky unless you have a great utility or damage. If you want to build tank and do damage you will still be better off playing a juggernaut or Hecarim.

Exactly. I guess I didn't fully back up my points, but now I don't need to. You pretty much did it for me, so thanks. Unless they put bonus health ratios on Q and W, this is going to be a huge nerf to him.

Champions Cho'Gath [7.3 PBE changes being reverted soon - will likely return in some capacity soon!] Feast (R) [new iteration of exploratory changes seen earlier in PBE.] [Change to feast mechanic - still doesn't fall off] Only 5 stacks can be gained from minions and monsters Stacks Beyond 5 now give 50% of listed health (50/70/90) 70% AP ratio removed from damage. 12% bonus HP ratio added to damage

Are you fucking serious? It does significantly less damage now, and you NEED to execute people with it, or else you won't get stacks. Not only that, but it gives much less health than it used to, anyway, so what's the fucking point? How are you going to get fed if you don't do any fucking damage? Answer: You don't.

I mean, you left out the 12% bonus HP Dmg. You figure with 5 stacks (that don't fall off) Your full tank Cho will have around 5k HP you'll deal base + ~ 360 DMG. ~2k base + ~3k bonus. Ya that Dmg is down from old cho but its not awful for True DMG

Wouldn't say hes gutted.

Bonus HP damage is irrelevant. His ult gives him MAXIMUM HP, not Bonus, so it doesn't increase the damage as you stack up. You have to build actual HP items for that. And if you do that, you won't have any AP, so your Q, W, and E won't do any damage. The reason he's going to be gutted is because he's already in a weak spot. If they nerf him like this, he'll be even weaker.

Did you mean base HP? Increasing maximum health usually counts as increasing bonus HP, like in case of Lulu.

No, I meant maximum HP. Also, I'm pretty damn sure that Cho'Gath's Ult is maximum HP, as the last time I checked, it didn't scale with cinderhulk.

Oh. True. Maybe they just ripped his entire body inside out, then?

Although that brings to question: Where does all the food that Cho'Gath eats go? For Kog'Maw, it gets dissolved, and for Kha'Zix, he uses it to transform himself or something, but what about Cho'Gath? What does he do with it?

How is he gutted? If you build, item 3027 item 3116 item 3742 item 3065 item 3143 item 3158 , or something along those lines, you'll get a bonus 276 true damage, without being squishy AF, and that's without any stacks of your ult.

Bonus 276. 276. TWO HUNDRED SEVENTY FUCKING SIX. ARE YOU KIDDING? AND RYLAI'S? THAT WEAK, SHIT, GUTTED ITEM, ON CHO'GATH? Not to mention, if you just stack fucking HP, your Q and W won't do any damage, so yay! This is some serious fucking Old Sion shit here. If you build AP, your ult doesn't do any damage. If you build health, your Q, W, and E won't do any damage. And Cho'Gath? Being squishy as fuck? Do you not know how to build champions anything other than full damage or full tank? He's a fucking hybrid. You're supposed to be building shit that give defenses and ability power. Holy shit, it's almost like I'm talking to someone about Old Yorick.

You're right, I do need to chill out about this. I think I have PTSD or something from this. Everyone I used to main is getting removed/gutted. Sion, Poppy, Yorick, Kha'Zix, Aurelion Sol, Cho'Gath... I just... I'm starting to fucking go crazy. It seems like this is all just a pattern... I practically grieve for Yorick every damn day.

I don't know, I guess Kha'Zix wasn't really gutted. I guess I just can't adapt to the changes at all. Like, how am I supposed to take advantage of the cooldown refund on Evolved Q if they just walk back out of isolation range right after I jump on them. Before, you could capitalize on them being misplaced and burst them down quickly before they could clump up, because of the 200% Bonus AD Ratio. Now, it's much lower, and you have to hit them twice for it to equal the damage you would have done before the rework. Since you need to hit them twice, they have a lot more time to get back to safety, and since your jump will be on cooldown after you tried to capitalize on their mistake, you won't be able to get out before you get CC'd to death. I probably did a horrible job of explaining that, tbh. Also, I guess Aurelion isn't necessarily weak, as much as he is just really buggy. I can't play him with all of the bugs in his kit now, it's just so damn aggravating.

No, it actually doesn't. It scales with Bonus HP. His ult is maximum HP. Also, what if only ONE of their abilities scaled with Bonus HP? Cho'Gath has 3 abilities that scale with HP, and one that scales with Bonus HP. No matter what you decide to build, overall, your entire kit is going to deal less damage.

don't be a noob, riot actually does listen if you get enough people to join in. When they tried to change ahri the ahri fancult closed in and directed the changes as we pleased. We came to agreements and ahri got even stronger while increasing in counterplay after dfg was removed.

http://leagueoflegends.wikia.com/wiki/Cho'Gath

the wiki confirms that it is in fact bonus health unless they are mistaken somehow

Wind Whistler1 votes

Nothing I say is almost ever agreed with. Every single one of my threads end up getting downvoted, LOL. Nobody is going to listen to anything I say, yet I still make these stupid posts. Also, no shit they listened to Ahri players. There are so many of them, and most people like her for some reason. No one likes champions like Cho'Gath, Sion, Poppy, and ESPECIALLY Yorick. Also, that's really strange. Next time I play Cho'Gath I'll look at his tooltip, because that's where I saw it say "maximum health".

Nothing is even going to FUCKING CHANGE. He'll have even LESS counterplay. All you have to do is ult a fucking minion and then boom, you get more health for the rest of the game. Also, might I remind you, this is MAXIMUM health. Aka, NOT BONUS HEALTH. So it doesn't make his ult stronger. And if you think you can go full tank Cho'Gath and be one shotting people... Well, to put it lightly, you're stupid. Someone who can build full tank items and one shot people... That's called being "BROKEN". I hope you know about that. Lol. Are you just trying to trigger me?

You never built "Pure AP" on Cho'Gath. You built a mixture between armor, magic resist, health, and ability power. That way, you're tanky, AND all of your abilities do damage. If you just build HP on Cho'Gath, your Q and W won't do any damage. Also, it takes longer for him to get stacks now.

VoraciousX1 votes

Any time you add health to a champion, you're adding max HP. Bonus Health is literally that, BONUS HEALTH. Base health is how much the champion itself has, bonus health is health gained from outside sources(for example, items, his ult. If you need proof that his ult grants BONUS HEALTH, just look here: http://leagueoflegends.wikia.com/wiki/Cho'Gath . Maximum health is ALWAYS added when you add HP to a champion, otherwise it'd be like a potion, adding current health but not adding to your max HP. Bonus health is health from outside sources, which will always be maximum health, again, unless using a potion or something similar. There are BONUS health, and BASE health. BASE health is the champion's health values without items or runes. Runes and items grant BONUS health. The only time an item will grant a BASE stat is in the case of something like Sterak's Gage, where it grants you a temporary extra 25% base AD. You don't have to overreact, but if you think they're gutting him because his ult doesn't add to it's damage, you're wrong, as it grants BONUS HEALTH, as well as items.
