hooks the enemy carry, chain cc's him with his passive amd aoe slow from his e, and has a ranged direct targeted knockup to initiate teamfights with.
heals a lot and deals a lot of auto attack damage.
but yea, k. juggernauts have exactly the same strengths as tanks with damage tacked on. not every jugger is fucking
a champion i still disagree with.
Well,
isn't even a Juggernaut anyways. He's a Specialist; a champion who has a strangely or uniquely designed kit that they can't be nailed down as one class or another.
I mean, look at his kit.
Passive: Sustain that scales with level for killing units or structures.
Q: Two Forms of CC, on 1 skill. A 1 second Knockup followed by a 60% Slow for 1.5 seconds afterward.
W: Another CC, Silence for 1.6 to 2 seconds dependent on the rank of the skill.
E: 1.5 Second decaying slow to units hit.
R: True Damage Ult that, if it kills a champion, minion or monster, gives him free health. You could almost call it an Execute since most Cho players use it to finish off targets.
What do we see?
Well first off, he's already got every Juggernaut beat on CC. He's got 3 separate kinds! A Knockup, Multiple Slows and a Silence! Most Juggernauts have at most 1 Hard CC and 1 Soft CC. Usually just the one hard CC and none of the soft, or vice-versa. This large quantity of CC disqualifies him as a Juggernaut.
What's next, his passive sustain? Sure, it's locked behind last-hitting minions, but it's still sustain so some people might claim that the sustain makes him a Juggernaut. But it's not really the case.
With the exception of those Juggernauts whose forms of sustain are essentially just boosted regen (
,
and
) or Nasus with his Soul Eater passive that just is free life steal, no Juggernaut gets Sustain for simply existing. So no, the PASSIVE doesn't qualify him as a Juggernaut either.
Last but certainly not least, the ult. It's True Damage, something that certain Juggernauts have. It even gives him free stats if it kills someone, like Darius with his Noxian Might, or even Morde with his new Realm of Death, or maybe even Trundle with Subjugation, and Nasus with Fury of the Sands. The thing that sets his apart from theirs though, is that his free stats are PERMANENT. He keeps the Free HP he gains for the rest of the game, unlike the Juggernaut Ults (Or passive, in the case of Darius) that I've listed, who lose the free stats they gain after a certain amount of time. Thus, his ult is SIMILAR, but still NOT CLOSE ENOUGH to qualify him as a Juggernaut.
But, despite these differences (And I'm sure more that I haven't listed here), people STILL seem to that think he's a Juggernaut. https://img-9gag-fun.9cache.com/photo/4000676_460swp.webp
