How to Beat Teemo as Cho'Gath (Top)

The Cho'Gath versus Teemo matchup in the top lane is favorable with proper positioning. Use your statistical advantage and prevent the opponent from realizing their potential.

The magic damage that Cho'Gath deals remains relevant in the late game. Look for opportunities to initiate or counter-initiate. Meanwhile, Teemo deals primarily magic damage (80.34%), additional magic resistance may be required.

Consider the farming superiority demonstrated by Teemo, ranking 15th (versus 56th for Cho'Gath) in farming efficiency among champions in this role. This means the opponent can build gold advantages more quickly. Meanwhile, their lower KDA (1.7 versus 2.0) suggests they are less effective in team fights.

Key aspects of the Cho'Gath Top versus Teemo Top matchup

Despite the statistical advantage in the matchup, overconfidence can be the main mistake. It is important for the Cho'Gath player to maintain constant pressure on Teemo, not allowing the opponent to safely scale up, and actively use the advantage gained to help their team.

    Cho'Gath tips:

    • Try to line up your attacks with Vorpal Spikes so that they kill minions and harass enemy champions at the same time.
    • If you're having difficulty feasting upon champions, try eating minions until you're larger.
    • Using Rupture on creeps in combination with Carnivore is a good way to gain Health and Mana.

    Playing Against Teemo

    • Teemo's Toxic Shot punishes players who get hit and back out, so stay at a safe range until you're ready to commit.
    • It can be valuable to use Oracle's Lens(Trinket) to destroy mushrooms around key locations.
