EPTbut I think it's much easier to play cho top and get carried because you're just a god damn unstoppable, unkillable monster (im a bit biased, lost to some really bad chos today and then won a bunch of games with him)

Nobody really dunks him off the bat now that ninja tabi is such a viable opening option | ||

Also, it's really important to stack feast out as fast as possible while still having it up for crucial objectives and big teamfights. | ||

He has to have a level advantage over his opponents as well as correct runes, masteries, and items to feel like that unkillable monster. A lot of people think Cho's a really strong tank, and while he is, it's conditional and it falls off, and that's why you tend to see a dropoff in Cho's lategame efficiency--it's not that he dropped off, it's that his opponents caught up. When you don't have a level advantage over your opponents, you're actually quite squishy, even if you do have tank items. Also, it's really important to stack feast out as fast as possible while still having it up for crucial objectives and big teamfights. I think it's important to note here that it's not that Cho gets worse than other tanks, it's that his advantage over other tanks gets smaller as the game goes on. So, if he's jungling, he can start off the game getting BoM, oracles, and gp5 and still be somewhat tanky, but Feast isn't going to carry him for much longer. | ||

I find as either jayce or kayle I go even. The trades usually go with me trying to hit him from outside auto range, him using a rupture behind me, me walking straight into it, and taking some autos because rupture hurts and I get slowed, and then him healing back up a bit. With kayle's slow he may not catch up to use autos. This is just theory but I think with jayce you could pelt cho with autos until he uesd rupture, then you just change form and jump near him. That sounds like a good way to deal with even cho's sustain. Still cho can turn things around with ganks. He has a slow, knockup, burst, and silence to delay your flash if you still have it. | ||

It's that easy. Cloth 5 -> Tabi -> Dolan's Shield if you desperately need it and are low on gold, Chain Vest if you don't -> proceed to shrug off their harass and farm your ass off. | ||

The only problem with building like that is you can't get your gp5s, which top chogath really likes =( | ||

So I tried out a bot game against a custom level cho. I can't jump fast enough to dodge ruptures. I don't see how people counter cho as jayce or kayle. Imo at best it's a relatively even lane. What's worst is that since all jayce's jump has a windup, if you try to jump, and rupture hits, the jump gets canceled. | ||

As a Cho player many people who are NOT absolutly predictable in their jukes (meaning always the same way) can dodge ruptures quite successfully. The problem is, I'll still be able to push them away from the creeps they want to last hit if my timing is right. So far the only player which shut me down completly top lane was rengar, mostly because he did the lvl 1 gank abuse which i had not met at all till that game :p | ||
