The big reason why Cho'Gath isn't played is because of his lack of innate mobility. He can definitely peel and his skills have great AP scaling, but unlike most tanks that get better with items, he also has to manage his Feast stacks that give him extra HP and unlike Shyvana, Renekton, Riven, or Aatrox, does not have a way to get himself out of a jam barring summoner skills. They can use their ults and mobility skills with impunity, but for Cho'Gath, if his Q is burned and his opponents still get him, he's mostly done for since he can't emergency jump without using Flash and his ult is a nagging choice for the player to decide between gaining more health or deal immediate true damage. Granted, with such a short CD, some CDR would benefit him and allow him to use it in multiple team fights, but if he dies he has to work back up to his stack position, and having Feast on or off can make all the difference.
