Who beats Cho'Gath in League of Legends: Classic, who Cho'Gath beats, and the Season 3 items, runes and masteries to run top, mid. Patch 26.17.
Silver Bolts true damage is percent-health. The biggest health pool in the mode is your best target.
He outranges your whole kit and your stacks do not help against magic poke.
Bio-Arcane Barrage percent-health shred is exactly what a stacked health pool fears.
Ranged poke denies your farm and blind does not matter because he never lets you close.
He out-trades you early before you have the stacks to matter.
Silence stops Blade Waltz and your health pool survives anything she opens with.
Silence cancels Highlander and Feast executes him through his lifesteal.
Feast is true damage that ignores his spin, and Rupture interrupts the engage.
Start:
Core:
RoA plus ult stacks makes you the largest health pool in the mode, and Feast is true damage.
AP Cho'Gath: Rod of Ages → Deathfire Grasp → Rabadon's Deathcap → Rylai's Crystal Scepter → Void Staff
Rupture and Scream carry real ratios, and Feast keeps giving you the health that normally costs an item slot.
Doubling armor runes is what makes an early Cloth Armor start unkillable against AD tops. Health quints beat armor quints when you expect mixed damage.
9/21/0 Defense. Honor Guard is flat percentage damage reduction from everything. Juggernaut and Block are what make you unkillable to an AD top.
