Hello and welcome to my Cho'Gath guide c:

My name is "Sakuritou" and i was and still am the Nr.1 Cho'Gath in the World in Season 14. Recently i have peaked as high as Top 25 Challenger in EUW (1465 LP) and still currently climbing. I play Cho'Gath in Midlane, Toplane and also on the ADC Role. Very rarely do i play him on Jungle and Support.

While playing Cho'Gath i also play a lot of Senna, Yone, Yasuo and Ryze currently.

I stream on Twitch where my main focus is to entertain my viewers while simultaniously maintaining high elo on the EUW ladder! (https://www.twitch.tv/sakuritou)

Recently (Feb. 2022) i got quite a bit of popularity for my "Saku Build". Especially on the Cho'Gath Mains Subreddit, where i am trying to teach more players the "way of the Gath".

I also do free coaching, just add me on Discord "Sakuritou" and we can discuss dates, rates and just get to know each other!

The "Mathematically Correct Cho'Gath Build" focuses on getting as many Stats (AD/AP/HP/ARMOR/MR) as possible. This Build is insanely fun and feels insanely broken, if you get ahead early. It is an incredibly snowbally build that takes over an entire game, if allowed to.

I also have a full matchup guide on Cho'Gath, here the link to the document "feastament":

Here I will give you some advice for each Cho'Gath Ability

---

[Q] Rupture:
Predict the enemy movement to increase Q Hit-Rate.
Combo your Q with CC-Abilities from your own Team (For Example: Leona Q)
If the enemy has a lot of mobilty (For Example: Irelia Q), try using ur W before your Q, so she gets silenced and can't Q out of your Q

---

[W]Feral Scream:
Don't waste this Ability! Use it whenever you need to shutdown an important target. It works best against Bruisers/Assassins, keep it for them.
Don't overuse it early game, the mana-costs are to high.

---

[E]Vorpal Spikes:
Use it whenever it's off-cooldown when you trade with the enemy. Lvl 1 you want to push the wave with it aswell.
Remember that it is an Auto Attack Reset and it has a small slow, you can use this slow to hit your Q easier!

---

[R] Feast:
Do not use your Ult before any objective (Herald, Drake, Baron)
If you are sure, you will not kill the enemy champ in the next 20 seconds (when your ult is up) use it on a minion, if you know you can make a play, keep it.

---

General Tips and Tricks
If you are able to cs well enough, you can get "Lost Chapter" with the minion-wave that grants you Lvl 6. That minion-wave also includes a cannon minion that you can instantly use Feast [R] on which pushes it. I do this almost every single game, if i'm allowed to CS in the early game.

Cho'Gath is insanely good when playing around your jungler.

---

Cho'Gath offers an insane amount of CC + Damage while maintaining insane objective control with his Ultimate Ability.

---

You can setup a ton of plays, once you get the hang of his Q. It does take a lot of practice tho, it is one of the hardest abilities to hit in league of legends.

---

Cho'Gath's W Ability is one of the most broken abilities in the game. It can deactivate an entire Champion for up to 2 seconds (if they do not have any tenacity). Champions like Riven or Jayce get completly removed by it.

---

With his E and Liandry he is very good into tanks as well, offering a ton of Max HP Damage.

---

He can survive most lane-phases with his Passive (yes, even the hard ones are "surviveable").

---

This build basically entire works on the concept "stats".

Cho'Gath already being a stat-checker becomes an even bigger stat-checker with this build. Add his free-stats from his ult on-top of that and you become Mundo 2.0 (Minus the healing and MS of course)

---

In Low elo? Probably, as people won't punish you for early RoA as much as in high elo and the general skill is lower, which obviously benefits Cho'Gath a lot.

---

As for mid elo? Probably still pretty good, if the enemy team allows you to play safe early (and your own team doesn't need Cho'Gaths Presence early game). Be a lot more careful in mid elo tho, players should be able to adapt on-to your build and try to counter it with a Blade of the Ruined King or an Eclipse to match your stat-checking nature.

---

Is it viable in high elo? Absolutely not, the game revolves WAY to much around early game and early pressence (especially in midlane). You canno't afford to build RoA and let it stack up, before being useless. Theres also lots of champions and items that counter this build/Cho'Gath in general and high elo players are very well aware of that (sorry, my fault).

---

But then again, take everything with a grain of salt when i talk about low and mid elo, i do not have any experience how the game is played there, as i do not smurf.
