Overall, Zoe sees a very large drop in her KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Cho'Gath. His KDA fell from NaN to NaN. This negative change shows that Cho'Gath helps Zoe perform not as well in ranked League rounds. Yet, the small difference proves that this performance change is not very impactful.

When Zoe is an ally to Cho'Gath, she sees a little decrease in her full damage dealt. This difference may signal that Cho'Gath does not support by providing protection for her to deal more damage or that his presence on the team also helps extend the round's duration. Similarly, when Zoe is played together with Cho'Gath on the same team, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees compared to when she plays alone. This is contrasting evidence that she is worse when playing alongside Cho'Gath.

Moreover, when Zoe plays with Cho'Gath on the same team, she usually receives a little less damage than when she plays alone. Getting dealt not as much damage could mean that Cho'Gath does a decent job of covering Zoe during team fights.

Is Zoe better when played alongside Cho'Gath?

There is no ideal companion for Zoe that will always be her ideal teammate. Yet, Cho'Gath is a relatively poor companion for Zoe. By playing on the same side as Zoe, he decreases their win rate by -1.6% to 45.4%. This shows that there is a negative bond between Zoe and Cho'Gath that allows them to perform worse together than alone.

Cho'Gath has a lower difficulty than Zoe. That means Zoe players don't need to be cautious when arranging Cho'Gath allies to fight alongside, as they will require a lower level of skill to be able to fight well with you.

When playing cooperatively, you should expect to see an overall large increase in your team’s ability to deal magic damage. Combined, these champions are able to dish out a surprising amount of magic type damage.

In contrast, by bringing Zoe and Cho'Gath together, you may not be providing your other allies enough AD. Make sure to include other champs on your team that fills this relative hole in their potential.

Regardless of your Cho'Gath ally's ability, you should focus on maximizing your gold income, warding to avoid ambushes, and clearing objectives. If you heed this simple advice, you will do well, regardless.
