Damage
874Cho'Gath
512Rek'Sai
Cho'Gath heavily out-damages Rek'Sai by 363 DMG/min, dominating both short trades and all-in fights. Rek'Sai should avoid extended combat and instead focus on burst trade patterns — short engages followed by immediate disengagement — to avoid letting Cho'Gath's sustained damage advantage take over.
Economy
10,936Cho'Gath
8,207Rek'Sai
Cho'Gath generates a commanding 2,729 more gold per game than Rek'Sai.

Utility

0.8Rek'Sai
Cho'Gath brings significantly more crowd control than Rek'Sai, with 1.3 more seconds of CC per minute. This large utility gap makes Cho'Gath far more valuable in setting up jungle ganks, controlling objectives, and locking down targets in team fights.

Sustain
1,731Cho'Gath
1,545Rek'Sai
Cho'Gath vastly out-sustains Rek'Sai, healing and mitigating 186 more damage per minute. This massive durability gap means Cho'Gath can absorb significant punishment and remain in lane while Rek'Sai is forced to recall.
