I'm perfectly ok with the Cho R buffs, but FIX HIS W

Currently Cho'Gath's W checks for hitboxes at the beginning of the cast, giving you the illusion you can escape it while you actually can't, which leads to burnt flashes just to die .75 seconds later, etc. FIX, not nerf, FIX that and most of the insatisfaction to play against him will disappear. Then, if that hidden power was too big of a part of his power, just make Q's hitbox larger (currently, so many times it should hit and it doesn't) and move part of its casting time into delay where Cho can walk around. This allows him to kite better and have a better fallback pattern.

Cho'Gath's W is like my father.

It's never there when I need it most.

That might be a stolen joke.

Jokes are meant to be shared, not coveted by owners.

But if you're seriously worried about me stealing someone's thunder, yes I got the joke from MagikarpUsedFly.

True, but we have to give credit where it's due.

Eh.

A reference is a reference, and they aren't always credited. I mean, can you tell me where "the mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell" or "Who's on first?" came from (specifically), and are you expected to source those whenever you use them? If I claimed it was my own joke, then yeah that would be stealing but I'm not being unreasonable here. Otherwise I would have been arrested for the number of times I've used the joke about hell being endothermic because I slept with some popular girl.

I referenced a youtube user in our community, and who is quite well known. If someone doesn't get the reference, they usually ask and people like me are willing to point them in the right direction but don't really go out of our way to cite every single joke (because, well, I gave examples). Which I guess your comment counts for that, since now everyone should know where the joke came from for sure.

I guess you're right about the YouTuber being pretty popular, but it wasn't a major part of that video. For example, with the "Who's on first?" joke, that was a well-known, full comedy routine. That MagikarpUsedFly joke was a small, one-off joke that was kinda slipped into the video for lolz.

Pretty much this, they need to start standardizing their code. This and "spell crits"

Better yet, delete this archaic joke of champion. Stupid sustain. More control than most control tanks. Absurd AP scaling with a stupid high base true damage ult. Next to no mechanical participation. Incredibly durable with just a few hybrid AP/defensive items.

Chogath is a champion who is thematically great but just needs to have his kit updated. Currently his kit is more terrifying than Cho himself is ( and Cho is the Terror of the Void ) and there would be no need to delete him if it were fixed in a way O.P. suggested.

u have any idea what its liek to play riven vs chogath. ive q'd behind this guy and flashed and even just ddged his mouth. but the silence and damage still hit me. i dont understand why they buffed him, he was stupid in lane as it was with his brain dead sustain.

I remember playing Chogath before his ult was what it is now. I'm glad they are at least trying to come up with a better compromise for Cho'Players who, at that time, were outraged over the nerfs his ult was getting/did eventually get. I think what O.P. suggested was more than fair because the way his abilities are now is much more terrifying than Cho who is the Terror of the Void.

it also has a retarded animation it looks like it will hit but it didn't

I. I just explained it, precisely this, in the post. It checks for hitboxes at the beginning, so if you leave you're still hit at the end, and if you join you're still not hit at the end. There's no "also".
