Yorick vs Cho'Gath Matchup Summary

The Yorick vs Cho'Gath matchup is a decisive matchup in League of Legends ranked play. Based on 73 recent matches analyzed, Yorick wins with a 58.9% win rate compared to Cho'Gath's 41.1%, giving Yorick a 17.8 percentage point advantage. Yorick dominates at every stage — from early laning through late game team fights. This consistent advantage makes it difficult for Cho'Gath players to find favorable windows, so team-dependent strategies and avoiding solo confrontations are essential. The most significant statistical gap is in crowd control, where Cho'Gath leads by 2.0s CC/min — a difference that heavily influences the outcome of trades and skirmishes. Yorick players can confidently pick into Cho'Gath and play aggressively from level 1. Look to establish lane dominance early through favorable trades and zone Cho'Gath away from CS whenever possible. Understanding these matchup dynamics is essential for champion select decisions and in-game strategy when facing this lane opponent.

Damage
1,050Yorick
759Cho'Gath
Yorick heavily out-damages Cho'Gath by 291 DMG/min, dominating both short trades and all-in fights. Cho'Gath should avoid extended combat and instead focus on burst trade patterns — short engages followed by immediate disengagement — to avoid letting Yorick's sustained damage advantage take over.
Economy
10,475Yorick
9,477Cho'Gath
Yorick generates a commanding 997 more gold per game than Cho'Gath. This substantial economic advantage means Yorick consistently reaches key item breakpoints earlier, creating a compounding lead that grows throughout the game.

Utility
0.3Yorick
2.3Cho'Gath
Cho'Gath brings significantly more crowd control than Yorick, with 2.0 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. Yorick should invest in tenacity and position carefully to avoid being chain-CC'd.
Sustain
1,270Yorick
2,021Cho'Gath
Cho'Gath vastly out-sustains Yorick, healing and mitigating 751 more damage per minute. This massive durability gap means Cho'Gath can absorb significant punishment and remain in lane while Yorick is forced to recall. Building grievous wounds early is essential for Yorick, and focusing on burst trade patterns rather than sustained fights is critical.
