What is the maximum Cho'Gath's ultimate damage
I was looking at my wife game, when she played as Annie in EUW. In enemy team there was a Cho'Gath who did 2753 true damage using his ultimate.
That is far beyond what i thought was possible. It happened around 42 - 47 min.
At 47:59 Cho'Gath's had following items:
- Mercury's Treads with Homegauards
- Spirit Visage
- Rod of Ages
- Banshee's Veil
- Luden's Echo
- Rabadon's Deathcap
With total of 539 ap
Other enemy team members who could have modified him are:
- Amumu
- Gangplank
- Twitch
- Blitzcrank
his runes
and masteries
can anyone explain this (even if it is a bug)?
Best Answer
539 AP, 650+70% AP damage means that he dealt 1027 points of true damage.
That's a lot, but it's nothing like 2753 so there are two possibilities:
- You misread the death damage display somehow (there's no way to check since you haven't got a screenshot of it)
- Luden's Echo somehow confused things. It could have caused a magic damage proc as well as the true damage. That magic damage hitting multiple targets.
- There are no other options really since true damage is never modified by anything.
I've never tested it but it's plausible that that combined with the massive amounts of AoE magic damage Cho does caused a bug in the death display.
It seems very unlikely that it actually dealt that much damage (and I've played Cho a lot and it's never happened to me). That sort of bug would be extremely serious and get fixed fast so it's far more likely to be a display issue.
It might be worth submitting this as a bug report to Riot though so they can investigate.

How much damage does Cho Gath ULT do?
Cho'Gath ravenously feeds on an enemy, dealing 300 / 475 / 650 (+50% of ability power) (+0.1 per bonus health) true damage to champions or 1000 true damage to minions or jungle monsters.Is Cho Gath ULT true damage?
Cho'Gath's attacks release deadly spikes, dealing damage and slowing all enemy units in front of him. Devours an enemy unit, dealing a high amount of true damage.What is the max stack of Cho Gath?
Cho'Gath can stack his Ultimate infinitely. However, he can only gain 6 stacks from minions. This means to go beyond 6 stacks, you're going to need to eat a few Champions along the way.Does Cho Gath infinitely scale?
According to the new patch notes, Cho'Gath will no longer lose Feast stacks on death and can now stack infinitely off champions and epic monsters (Baron, Dragon, and Vilemaw). It's worth noting that he has a cap on how large he can become and he will not be able to grow infinitely in size.1,000 Stack Cho’Gath vs 5 Diamond ADCs

Answer 2
This is a bug.
Cho'Gath would need over 3k AP in order to hit that high with his ult.
The death recap often displays incorrect or misleading information. There have been cases where 500 damage was attributed to Revive.
It's possible that the 2753 damage that you see attributed to his ult was actually partially from other sources and not just the ult.
Possibly damage sources not listed in the death recap gets their damage attributed to a different source. It's impossible to tell but this is a bug or at least a misleading aspect of the death recap.
With only 600 AP Cho'Gath could not have done this much damage, even if his ult was used twice and somehow both of them displayed in the death recap, it would still not reach the shown damage.
If you have a replay, look for the moment where he ults and there will be a number that appears indicating how much damage was done by the ult. This number is much more certain to be accurate.
