A second Forsen Cho’Gath clip has hit the building this month. He’s seen missing not one but two abilities at close range during a pro League of Legends match featuring several high-level players. The sequence captured the streamer attempting to finish off a low-health Rammus using Powerball but failing to land either of Cho’Gath’s primary crowd control abilities.
The moment played out with Forsen positioned directly next to the rolling target. He first attempted to use Feral Scream, Cho’Gath’s cone-shaped silence ability, which passed through empty space. He followed with Rupture, the delayed knockup ability, which also missed. The Rammus escaped and knocked Forsen away, turning what should have been an easy kill into a momentum swing.
Multiple perspectives of the play circulated after the match. Former LCS mid laner Pobelter was in the same lobby, and his POV showed the same sequence from a different angle. One viewer commented that “Pobelter literally jumped out his seat watching this.” Another clip featured streamer Jackspektra’s reaction to the moment.
Cho’Gath’s abilities are relatively forgiving to land under normal circumstances. Feral Scream projects a wide cone in front of the champion, while Rupture covers a circular area after a short delay. Missing both at melee range typically requires either poor aim or exceptional movement from the opponent.
Viewers noted the mechanical difficulty. One commenter explained: “He missed two abilities on the person he was attacking in close range, and then got punted away.” Another pointed out Forsen’s history with the champion: “He has 800hrs in league and it feels like he misses 90% of cho gath Ws.”
The lobby’s skill level made the mistake more visible. Pro-heavy games feature players who move unpredictably and capitalize on missed abilities. Rammus during Powerball can quickly change direction, but the close-range nature of this exchange left little room for jukes.
