Camille vs Cho'Gath

Updated Jun 2, 2026

Overview

Camille aims to pressure Cho'Gath with short trades around second (Q) and use terrain for (E) engages to punish his low mobility.
Prioritize denying Cho'Gath's passive scaling by forcing fights before he stacks health and becomes tanky.
This is a scaling vs scaling lane where Camille must leverage her mobility and lockdown to create side-lane picks and avoid extended trades.

Trading pattern

Trade by landing second (Q) for true damage and disengage quickly before Cho'Gath can retaliate with (Q) knockup or (W) silence.
Punish Cho'Gath after he misses (Q) by using (E) to engage or reposition for short trades.
Avoid extended fights where Cho'Gath's sustain and silence can turn trades against you.

Danger windows

Be cautious when (Q) and (W) are up as his knockup and silence can disrupt your engage and trades.
After missing (E), your engage and escape options are limited; avoid overextending during this cooldown.
Before your first item spike, avoid prolonged trades where Cho'Gath's sustain and control can overwhelm you.

Early game

Use early short trades timed with second (Q) to chip Cho'Gath's health without overcommitting.
Avoid long trades before your first item spike to prevent getting silenced or knocked up by (Q) and (W).
Position near terrain to threaten (E) engages but only commit when the angle is safe and second (Q) is ready.

Power spikes

First sheen-style item: second (Q) true damage becomes reliable, enabling sharper short trades and safer disengages.
Level 6 (R): Use (R) to lock down Cho'Gath after baiting his disengage or to guarantee a pick in side-lane skirmishes.
Respect Cho'Gath's level 6 (R) execute range and avoid low-health windows where he can finish you off.

Win conditions

Use terrain to create safe (E) angles for engages and punish Cho'Gath's predictable positioning.
Focus on short trades that land second (Q) true damage and disengage before Cho'Gath can retaliate.
Scale into side-lane pressure and use (R) lockdown to isolate and kill Cho'Gath or other targets, denying his front-line presence and health stacking.
