Early Game

Cho'gath shuld always solo lane if he gets the chance, he does great both solo top and mid! Cho'gath does great against most about any champion becouse of his awsome staying power from his passiveWhenever Cho'Gath kills a unit, he recovers 32 - 66 (+2.0 each level) health and 3.25-7.50 mana (+0.25 each level).


Pre level 6 you should concentrate last hitting and farming.. is it worth harrasing you should do it. it is easy with feral scream. but you can do a combo withandjust remember that rupture has a 0.75 sec delay and is very easy avoided..


when reaching level 6 do the math.. dos your combo kill your enemy? if not feast minions, your aim is to always have 6 stacks...

Teamfights

Your Job in teamfights is a hybrid one! You are both a tank and a nuker! You shuld use your two CC spells ( Feral Scream and Rupture) to stop the majority of the enemy team to get to your back line of teammates, aka mages and ranged carries!
But at the same time you shuld use your Feast to kill of critical targets!
try to hit your combo so you knock up the carries or the ranges ( depending on the enemy team setup) and make them useless in about 3 seconds

History of Cho

There is a place between dimensions, between worlds. To some it is known as the Outside, to others it is the Unknown. To those that truly know, however, it is called the Void. Despite its name, the Void is not an empty place, but rather the home of unspeakable things - horrors not meant for minds of men. Cho'Gath is a creature born of the Void, a thing whose true nature is so awful most will not speak its name. Its fellows have been poking at the walls that divide dimensions for a crack, a way into Runeterra, where they can visit their own personal paradise of horror upon the world. They are called the Voidborn, creatures so ancient and terrible that they have been removed from history altogether. It is rumored that the Voidborn command vast armies of unspeakable creatures on other worlds, that they were once driven from Runeterra by powerful magic lost to antiquity.

If such tales are true, then the rumors that follow must be equally true - that one day, the Voidborn will return. Even now, something dark stirs in Icathia, perverting the summoning rituals of the League to allow the presence of Cho'Gath. It is an alien creature of malice and violence, a thing that causes all but the most stalwart to cringe in fear. Cho'Gath even appears to feed on its predations, growing and swelling as it gorges itself. Worse yet, the creature is intelligent, perhaps greatly so, making most wonder how such a monster could be contained. Fortunately, the power of the League's summoning has confined Cho'Gath's presence exclusively to the League of Legends. It is here that summoners use Cho'Gath's Voidborn abilities to help decide the fate of Runeterra. The Terror of the Void knows what fate it would choose for Runeterra, given half the ch
