Top-4 rate of boards where Cho'Gath held exactly these three items. Thief's Gloves builds equip random items, so they count as one build.

100% of full Cho'Gath builds are defensive items — players use Cho'Gath as a frontline that soaks damage while the carry deals it. That differs from Cho'Gath's listed role in the game files — ranked players use it differently.
