How to play it

Dodge his Rupture
His Q Rupture knock-up locks you down when you dive in: and he outsustains the trade anyway, so respect it.
Find plays elsewhere
You can't kill him in lane, so roam with your jungler to dive bot or top and get fed off the map.
Can't out-poke him
He outsustains any poke you throw out and is almost impossible to kill: don't waste resources trying.
Never try to poke down or solo-kill Cho: he outsustains everything and you just fall behind trying.
