HotShotGG

i am not taking this build from him, all credit goes to him for this amazing build.
if he has anything against it he can say it and i will remove this build.

(if you don't like the name, don't vote down.. say it and i will change it..)

Introduction

This is my second Cho'Gath build... as you may see my other build was cinda noobish :P a Madred's Bloodrazor would have killed me easily..
this build is gonna build on HotShotGGs build, cause all of the other builds build just ap and health .in this build you will see armor and magic resist, and some offensive tools too :P



This is how HotshotGG carried all of his Cho'Gath games :)


Guide Top

Solo top

remember this build is build in solo top, always try to get it..


Guide Top

Changes..

here imma gonnna say all the changes im gonna make , when there comes a new pacht and such things :)



published 23-08-2011


Guide Top

Runes...

Remember, this is the runes i use, you can use these or go a litle more offensive with armor penetration or a little AP. for marks i go Greater Mark of Vitality .. it helps me be buffy in all lane face.
for Seal i go Greater Seal of Resilience the flat armor really helps being tanky early game
for Glyphs i go Greater Glyph of Warding again flat magic resist helps being tanky early game, same reason i take Greater Quintessence of Warding


Guide Top

Masteries...

for masteries i go a basic 9 21 0

remember to get Archaic Knowledge really helps to buff your damage.


Guide Top

Starting items (important)

in this build your aim is to get solo top.
in ranked you will almost every time play against a team with a jungler. but in normal games you will often have to face two enemies.

usally you should by Doran's Ring playing against one enemy..
playing against two you should drop Doran's Ring and buy Regrowth Pendant and one Health Potion


Guide Top

First Trip home...

if all things went right you should now buy Philosopher's Stone and Heart of Gold if you have gotten a kill or two Boots of Speed


Guide Top

mid game

you should now have your boots Mercury's Treads and on your Force of Nature

and if your doing really good, be building your Frozen Heart


it will mean your build should look like this.. Doran's Ring Philosopher's Stone Heart of Gold Mercury's Treads Force of Nature Glacial Shroud


Guide Top

Late game...

you are now done with your Frozen Heart the next item is optional.. the only thing is that it have to be something offensive.. like Wit's End or Last Whisper you can even go Malady after this you should build Atma's Impaler you ulty Feast is giving you 900 healt at full stacks lvl 16, wich mean you dont have to buy more. building your Atma's Impaler you will have to sell your Philosopher's Stone next you should upgrade you Heart of Gold to Randuin's Omen if you want to and is bored you can sell your boots and buy phantom dancer's xD!! you sir, is now a real gentleman ...


Guide Top

Situational items

often normal game you can face a heavy ad team, or a heavy ap team, then ofcurse you should buy after that... lets say there team is Teemo Caitlyn Olaf mordekeiser]] Ashe ive have seen this even in ranked games xD then ofcurse you can drop you force of nature and buy Frozen Heart first and then buy something like Guardian Angel or thornail
playing against a heavy ap team you can drop your Frozen Heart and you Randuin's Omen
and buy banshee's wheel and again a Guardian Angel will work, you might even buy Rod of Ages because health often works against high ap team.


Guide Top

Pictures (in progress)

later i will show pictures of my ranked scores.....


Guide Top

Summoners spells

Flash is a good option for every champion (recommended)
Teleport great for a solo top, to go back and buy (recommended)
Ignite a great spell, really helps finishing someone off..
Ghost this you can choose over flash,ghost is good for finishing someone off with your feast
Smite just no -.-
Clarity if your new to cho'gath you might need this, otherwise after you bought Philosopher's Stone you wont have any mana problems..
Exhaust yet another great spell for Cho'gath helping you feastin people


if you use something else plzz tell me and tell me why


Guide Top

Feasting

Feasting is very important to keep at fully stacks, you are not gonna buy any healt items.

remember you dont always have to finish people off with Feast it can be a sign to target someone like Teemo


Guide Top

Farming

i cant explain how important farming really is.... you should try to get every single minion, i mean it, every single one.. if you have the option to auto attack the enemy and last hit a minion, last hit a minion??? is it so hard?? it will really help you get money for your items.


Guide Top

Rupture or feral scream??

yes maybe is Feral Scream easier to hit with but i prefer to max out Rupture after a while you will get good at it an thank me.


Guide Top

Wards

if you have enough money just buy one... its a good item avoiding you being ganked.


Guide Top

Summary

if you have something to say about the build leave a comment and help me improve.







and yes HotShotGG you are my idol :) im not taking this build from him, just posting it on mobafire so everyone can see how the worlds best chogath plays
