Guide to Synergizing Cho'Gath and Elise

Tips for Playing as Cho'Gath with Elise

Using Rupture on creeps in combination with Carnivore is a good way to gain Health and Mana.

If you're having difficulty feasting upon champions, try eating minions until you're larger.

Try to line up your attacks with Vorpal Spikes so that they kill minions and harass enemy champions at the same time.

Advice to Understand How Elise Will Play

Spider Form is most effective at finishing off enemies with low health; Human Form's Neurotoxin does more damage to healthy foes.

Elise's Spider Form and Spider Form abilities do not cost mana and can be prioritized when you are trying to conserve mana.

When in Spider Form, Spiderlings will attack the target that Elise uses Venomous Bite on.

This shows that there is a bad strategic relationship between Cho'Gath and Elise that allows them to perform worse together than alone.
