A Defensive Post for Cho'Gath
Kay, real quick, yes I know that the boards hates him right now because of all the broken stuff he has going for him, but just know, that this champ is still Cho'Gath.
He still has a difficult as all hell Q to land, the nerfs to his W way back when changing it from before cast to after cast silence are still hurting him today, and his lack of mobility is still one of the biggest problems in the game.
People are complaining about this high winrate he has, and yes I agree it is pretty high, he still has a less then 1% pickrate, so he isn't an "Anyone can win with them" champ, like Singed was after the gameplay update. Cho'Gath is strong now after years of being one of the weakest champs in the game.
If I wasn't scared that Riot might ruin him, I would actually say that he needs a VGU type rework, but right now he looks to be in a really nice spot. Champs get buffed and nerfed all the time, and this buff to Cho'Gath is something that he has been needing for so long, because champs in this game are just too mobile now adays, just from stats and items alone.
And with the item combos he has, yes I know they make him one shot any squishy, or just anyone really, as well as prevent anyone from dying, but it gives him a powerful niche to have.
Just, do what you've always done against Cho'Gath. Play Fiora.
because he really isn't all that bad. Yes he can have a strong burst combo that could kill most people, but once his ultimate is over he doesn't really offer much in a team fight besides for his long delay Knock up. Most of his damage is in his Ultimate (And I guess arguably his E now) but his ultimate has a CD and his E is melee range where he is super easy to kite.
Are all items that either give you movement speed to out-run him, a slow to kite him, or damage that can easily shred through him with %health damage.
that can easily destroy Cho once the game allows them to scale.
