How to play it

✓

Respect his R all-in

AP Cho'Gath can chain-CC you into a Flash-Ignite Feast just like your own all-in, so stay high on HP early.

✓

Commit at 4 points Q

Once you have Sheen and 4 points in Q you can commit, but it's not easy since he heals so much: mostly just farm.

✓

Only trade with Grasp

Trade only when your Grasp is up and your W is available: otherwise a bad trade just feeds his sustain.

✕

Trade into him without your Grasp up or without your W: you both out-sustain, so a bad trade just heals him back.
