Win Conditions

  • Gragas has a lot of good tools to gank. Look to help your laners as frequently as possible if they have good setup.
  • Throw your Ultimate R just behind the enemy to ensure they get knocked forward. Placing it on top of them may knock them in the wrong direction.
  • Staying off to the side while your team groups can allow you to flank the enemy and knock them into your teammates.

Weak Against

  • Elise: Elise excels at invading the enemy jungle and contesting objectives. Gragas, while having crowd control and sustain, might struggle against Elise's burst damage.
  • Ivern: The Green Father's supportive and control-oriented kit can mitigate Gragas' aggressive plays.
  • Sylas: Sylas can turn Gragas' own crowd control against him, potentially resulting in a double-edged sword.

Strong Against

  • Wukong: Gragas' crowd control can disrupt Wukong's combo and make it challenging for him to deal damage.
  • Rengar: His Body Slam and Explosive Cask can create distance and separate Rengar from his target, denying him the opportunity to burst down squishy champions.
  • Warwick: Gragas's kiting potential, coupled with his burst damage, can make it challenging for Warwick to sustain through fights effectively.

Game Strategy

  • Early Game: In the early game as Gragas, focus on efficient jungle clears while looking for opportunities to gank lanes. Your Body Slam and Explosive Cask can be powerful tools for early kills or saving teammates.
  • Mid Game: During the mid game, transition into a disruptive tank role. Use your crowd control abilities to peel for your team or initiate fights with well-placed Explosive Casks. Keep an eye on objectives and secure them with your Smite.
  • Late Game: In the late game, your primary role is to initiate fights with Explosive Cask or disengage to protect your carries. Ward key areas to control vision and set up for objectives, and be ready to use your abilities strategically in crucial team fights.
