Singed vs Cho'Gath

Updated Jun 3, 2026

Overview

Singed must control wave tempo to deny Cho'Gath safe scaling and force awkward farm decisions.
This is a control vs scale matchup where Singed pressures lane agency and disrupts Cho'Gath's stable farming.

Trading pattern

Win trades by making Cho'Gath walk through (Q) poison and then ground him with (W) to prevent escape.
Use (E) to (E) Cho'Gath into your team or tower when he is slowed and committed.
Avoid trading when (R) is down or (Q) and (W) are up, as his silence and knockup punish predictable movement.

Danger windows

Be cautious when (Q) knockup and (W) silence are available, as they can lock you down if you move predictably.
Avoid extended trades or all-ins before your (R) is up, as you lack the durability to survive his burst and crowd control.
Watch for enemy jungler ganks during your proxy attempts; hard push and ward to mitigate collapse risk.

Early game

Use early wave states to proxy or crash waves, forcing Cho'Gath into inefficient farm or risky positioning.
Avoid stationary duels before level 6; instead, bait Cho'Gath to chase through your (Q) poison.
Track (Q) cooldown to avoid getting locked down in his control zone.

Power spikes

At level 6, use (R) to gain speed and durability, enabling deeper disruption and forcing Cho'Gath into bad rotations.
After your first AP bruiser or tank item, pressure waves harder to maintain poison uptime and absorb Cho'Gath's counterplay.
Respect Cho'Gath's level 6 (R) execute window; avoid low-health trades and punish him before he stacks health.

Win conditions

Deny Cho'Gath a calm farming lane by using wave control and proxy pressure to force inefficient farm or risky chases.
Use (R) speed and (E) displacement to drag Cho'Gath through poison and into bad positioning for your team to capitalize.
Maintain lane pressure to prevent Cho'Gath from stacking health and becoming an unkillable front line.
