Tips Against Gragas in the Jungle Tips Provided by MOBAFire Guide Authors
“Gragas's Body Slam (E) is able to cancel your Reaping Slash's (Q) dash which is why you do not want to fight him early on.
He becomes even scarier during mid game as he will be able to kill you within seconds through a full combo. Avoid fighting him alone unless you are ahead.
Gragas remains a significant threat during the late game, however, he shouldn’t be able to one shot you anymore as long as you made sure to incorporate some MR into your build. Get yourself some Armor Penetration and you will be able to beat him given that you avoid his stun.”

Gragas remains a significant threat during the late game, however, he shouldn’t be able to oneshot you anymore as long as you made sure to incorporate some MR into your build. Get yourself some Armor Penetration and you will be able to beat him given that you avoid his stun.”
“Easy to dodge his leap and Barrel, after dodge just kite and kill him. But if he gets ahead, his combo can instant kill you.”
“Gragas is pretty difficult to deal with, even when he is at low health. He is tanky and has lots of CC. Be careful if he is running away from you as he can always turn with a bodyslam and burst you down very quickly if you are chasing him. Good sustain and plenty of damage, avoid fighting with him early. As long as he doesn't get ahead of you there should be no problem to 1v1 him.”
“Early game Gragas will not be able to kill you on his own, as he has a lot of burst damage and he wont be able to 1 shot you. After he's used his cooldowns you will be free to beat him up.”
“Gargas can deal great damage, only fight him when you are ahead. He can also make some plays if you greed.”
“idk easy matchup, he really can't do shit to you.”
“He was annoying but grag is dead atm”
“His ultimate separates your team, use your Q wisely. Lots of cc as well. Tanky as well. ”
“You should be able to 1v1 him unless he has a level or item advantage in the early game. His early clear can be quite slow so if you full clear you´ll have a decent advantage over him. You destroy him later on if you have a tank shredding item such as Black Cleaver or a Last Whisper item ”
“Another very easy champion to play against. Invade and fight 1v1, just beware of his early game ganks.”
“This match up is hard against a good gragas, but in most elos won't be too bad. Watch out for his burst, his E takes priority over your W knock up.”
“High damage and mobility. Try to dodge his E. But nothing special”
“Can bump you, his R can cancel your W and R channeling, and he got disgusting damages.”
“This match up is Graves favored. You can always dodge some of Gragas damage with your E which means you should always be able to 1v1 Gragas in the early game.”
“Because Gragas players now go AP it's a lot easier of a matchup. His abilities are easy to dodge, can block his E with our W, R his R...sometimes hard to kill because of passive.”
“Can be difficult to deal with, even when he is at low health. Be careful if he is running away from you as he can always turn with a bodyslam and burst you down very quickly if you are chasing him. Good sustain and plenty of damage, avoid fighting with him early.”
“Lots of CC in his kit but you can charm him and kite most of it. If you charm him, he usually dies.”
“Try to dodge his E. You stomp him early in the game.”
“Gragas can one shot you if he has a lot of ap. Try to dodge his e with your q or flash.”
“Gragas scales well and also can cancel Jarvan's E-Q. Solid counterpick”
“Tente entrar na frente da barrigada dele (Caso ele tente fugir)
Desvie do Q dele
Stune ele e desça a porrada com o Q
”
“He can one shot you early so keep this in mind and track him around the jungle. He will most likely build full AP so it will be easy to burst him down once you build some of your core items. ”
“Easy matchup; he literally has to use more than half of his kit to get away from you properly. ”
“Easy matchup; he literally has to use more than half of his kit to get away from you properly. ”
“You can easily outjungle him and countergank before 6 are really effective against gragas.”
“Gragas can win vs eve but has no real strengths.”
“Dodging his E (bodyslam) is and kiting him out is the key in this matchup; if you do this you will easily win any duel.”
“He will one shot you if he’s ahead but he’s manageable. In team fights he can knock you out of ulti so be careful.”
“If you Ulti him and stand on top of him, he can't body slam out
His Body slam can stop your E-Q combo, so be wary of that
Easy matchup since you outdamage him
After lvl 3-5, you start winning hard”
“Just a skill matchup. Dodge his barrel and belly flop combo and you should be ok. You can rappel his ultimate too but be careful to not put yourself in a dangerous position when you land.”
“Provides decent CC and that's about it, he can E away from you to run away like pusc”
“Gragas can be disruptive in teamfights and difficult to deal with due to how much cc he has. But if he goes Tank, he is free food and if he goes AP, you oneshot him. He might be more influential in certain situations than you but you should be able to put him behind you as he is really weak vs you.”
“Gragas is very tanky but doesn't have that much mobility, especially compared to you. Not much to say here honestly. He's a very zone-heavy champion.”
“I usually win this matchup, but Gragas is very annoying to fight. He will try to interrupt your abilities with his CC, so make sure to try and bait his abilities.”
“Can 1v1 u and beats u early hard. try to dodge his ult and u win the fight”
“I don't like going against Gragas on any champ, because he is annoying as f*ck, but he isn't that hard to deal with, so you'll be fine.”
“Gragas players these days are building him pretty squishy, and his R is really obvious and easy to block. You should have a major 1v1 advantage throughout the game. Watch for Stopwatch / Zhonya's so you aren't surprised when he picks one up.”
“He's pretty much a sitting duck if he gets CCd and he's not really strong enough early to bully you. You can probably blow him up in 2v2s if you charm him and your laner finishes him off.”
“[5/10] You should be able to 1v1 him unless he has a level or item advantage in the early game. His early clear can be quite slow so if you full clear you’ll have a decent advantage over him. You destroy him later on if you have a tank shredding item such as Black Cleaver or a Last Whisper item. If he gets ahead he can be a damage threat as well depending on his build so be mindful of his burst. Be aware of the disruption that he can causes with his ult during a teamfight, always wait for him to use his R before leaping in unless you can get a pick instantly.”
“Respect his flash distance at all times, as body slam-flash is instant and will force you to take his entire burst combo or be knocked back into his team. He can do a silly amount of unavoidable damage with electrocute and a lead if you misposition. You should have no issues winning the objective game and outscaling him. He likes to take Aftershock most of the time, so spending an ult to try and pick him is probably not wise. ”
“Pretty weak jungler and he's not strong until he finishes some AP items. You should be able to take over the early game before he becomes relevant.”
“His Ult is predictable but his Bodyslam can set you in a bad spot if he brings friends. Also if he Builds Ap you gonna have a hard time since you can't really use the damage reduction of your W against his CC. You could bait him with your W.”
“Easy to invade, easy to kill.
I suggest permamently invading and running lethality build.”
“cant do much against you out tank him”
“Early game he can be a bit annoying with his Body Slam, but once you get form he's practically useless (unless they have a Yasuo, then watch out for getting combo'd). As Rhaast he simply won't have the damage in his combo to burst you or the tankiness to withstand you as Shadow Assassin.”
“Gragas will throw you away and bully you, thankfully you can run away from him way more easily than nocturne but it's still very very hard due to his dash which will send you airborne.”
“Two displacements and a Belly Bump that trumps all - He will deny any attempt to 1 shot the enemy carry.
he can be countered by double-jungling and taking his camps off the map..
Don't get baited by a low Graggy target under tower even if you have him marked. Belly bump and cask aren't to be trifled with.”
“Better early and can 100-0 you at lvl 6. Just run away and wait for guinsoo.”
“Hold off on your drain if when fighting him until he uses his cc. Overall you should clear faster, but he will gank sooner. Just try to power farm and hard gank.
”
“You have more damage and you can heal his burst, so it shouldn't be hard. He's weaker than you in 1V1 fights, unless he's fed. Be in his face and countergank/contest everything. Get edge of night and he can't cancel you with E anymore. (only thing that makes him annoying)”
“Similar matchup to Sejuani, tank jungler, has good ganks early, poor objective control but high damage early for a tank. Can build an ap jungle item, so that makes him dangerous early, because of that damage. But you can dodge his skillshots when using twisted advance, so he shouldn't have an upper hand on you.”
“Even match-up.
Depending on how gragas builds, this match-up could be easy or a nightmare. If gragas is building full ap you can oneshot him. Be sure to rush edge of night otherwise he can cancel your combo with his E (Body Slam).”
“Fat man has cc. do not like. no one likes this guy.”
“Gragas can one shot you, and his Displacement can kick you out of ult and kill you from lack of positioning. Overall just avoid him until you get a chance to collapse with your laners.”
“You can pretty much avoid all of Gragas' damage with your E, and your early game is much stronger than his. AP Gragas is not that tanky and you should be able to burst it down, just watch out for the surprising amount of damage he does. If you take advantage early you will win later.”
“He can offer CC as well though not as consistently as Ornn (or Sejuani) but he can also do a lot of dmg if he has an offensive build. He wouldn't be a big thread though if it wasn't of his latest buffs in patches 9.15+. ”
“He is tanky and has respectable damage output. Watch out for his cheesy Flash+E and R into Q combos.”
“You can be one shotted and be the one shotter. he does have some sustain with his w, but he shouldn't be able to just walk into your jungle and put up his flag. As with all invades, call for help from your team. ”
“You can be one shotted and be the one shotter. he does have some sustain with his w, but he shouldn't be able to just walk into your jungle and put up his flag. As with all invades, call for help from your team. ”
“He deals tons of damage, has mobility, has CC and is tanky. Luckily enough he is easy to invade earlygame, so you can get fed by invading him and killing him after he engage the camp he is clearing with his belly dash.”
“If he is building tank, you have an easier time dealing with him than AP. This is usually the case, as your sustain is better than his sustain. However, be wary of your position; he can easily set up an ambush if he's decent in his combos.”
“He dont have that much early pressure. Should be easy for you to get kills fast. And you also outscale him in late”
“He can either use his entire kit to get away from you or blow it all on you and still lose against you.”
“Il n'a pas autant de pression au début. Cela devrait être facile pour vous de tuer rapidement. Et tu le outscale en late game”
“He can't do anything, you destroy him since the early from the late game.”
“He is pretty squisy early game so try to abuse that as much as possible.”
“A good gragas is a very annoying match, he can just E on you and cancel all your combo, so take care, also, if you dodge his E he is out”
“HES FAT ESAY TARGET! MATE”
“Gragas bénéficie de pas mal de contrôles. Cependant, tout comme Zac, un bon placement de wards pour prédire ses ganks et il peut aisément être contré par Evelynn.”
“Gank runes
Has same clear as you, prevent him getting fed with vision”
“Unless, he masters all the graggy combos, its hard to lose against him. Be careful early game because he has a lot of dmg.”
“Bad match up. Gragas can tank a lot of hits and can dish out knock ups and magic damage”
“If gragas times his ult correctly and stays behind his team, your engage will pretty much be useless unless you zhonyas immediately or manage to get him inside your fear range.
He also bursts pretty hard, if you are against him in the jungle, be wary of his damage. Your best option is to fear him and run away if he invades.”
“Hold off on your drain if when fighting him until he uses his cc. Overall you should clear faster, but he will gank sooner. Just try to power farm and hard gank.”
“Not the hardest matchup. Dont get cc'd thats it.”
“If your first instance of the hookshot is still in the air while you get displaced, your e will come through and pull you to the wall. This is basically everything you need to know about this one. Your early is stronger so you can go for invades and deny him. Wait his e and stun him and he is in big trouble. His ultimate is really useless against you because you have 2 skills to block or dodge it. Engage on his backline if he ults yours. ”
“Every ally that pushes away is an advantageous ally with Kindred. And every enemy that pushes away is a dangerous enemy for Kindred's team.
And Gragas is the worst. Ban him.”
“I usually deal with gragas, but sometimes it's not that easy. Try to get early lead!”
“Super Aids. His Dash will 100% deny your e. Be carefull and dont jump on him. He cant kill you but he can make u useless.”
“Graggy boi fat. He kill you like rat.”
“More mobile and he can disengage you in teamfight, but he can't trade you.”
“Try to get your combo off before he uses hes w since it gives dmg reduction also be away if he goes tank or ap. If he got aftershock be even more aware since hes dangerous then a lot more than if he had electrocute. Burst him down before he gets aftershock tanky stats or he uses w if you wanna kill him. If he goes ap with electrocute you will win any fight, if you get your combo off since you can always dodge both hes r and e with rappel.”
“Can burst you and cancel your casts with his E and R and prevent you from accessing to his team with his ult. ”
“He has slow, and his ultimate counter your ultimate really hard.”
“Gragas isn't a huge threat to you. He doesn't have the highest damage in the game and he doesn't tend to invade you. The best thing to do in this match-up is keep vision of the Gragas and countergank him all the time.”
“Gragas isn't a huge threat to you. He doesn't have the highest damage in the game and he doesn't tend to invade you. The best thing to do in this match-up is keep vision of the Gragas and countergank him all the time.”
“Gragas isn't a huge threat to you. He doesn't have the highest damage in the game and he doesn't tend to invade you. The best thing to do in this match-up is keep vision of the Gragas and countergank him all the time.”
“CHAMPION MATCH UP.
✅ WARWICK 56 % WR✅
VS
GRAGAS 44 % WR”
“You can win 1v1 with him, but u need to dodge his stun with Your Q”
“His R does loads of damage, and knocks you back pretty far. However, that's almost never enough to lock you down.”
“Can't Dodge Any Of His CC with W Just Try To Dodge it then all in”
“His Body Slam can stop all your engages. It's extremely annoying and it changes the way you should play the game.
Wait till after he used bodyslam or just don't go close to him. ”
“You have to be very proficient at stunning from allies to be able to countergank. Late game team fights require a lot of concentration.”
“body slam is easily react able and is cancelled by your W, you outdamage him early and scale into tank later on.”
“He can denie easily your ult with his own ult. He is also decent all game long. But you denie him with Maw. In mid or late game you can win against him if you time correctly your W when he E.”
“Gragas has become a bit stronger in the jg, and with a lead, can probably win a fight in your jg. The solution is to prevent him from getting one altogether. If you get the jump on him in his jg, then he doesn't really stand much of a chance, as his stun and barrel cd can be pretty hefty.”
“Gragas can also R you out of your ultimate.”
“You win early, gragas wins post 6.”
“Such a frustrating champion to play against. You should be able to 1v1 him unless he has a level or item advantage in the early game. You destroy him later on if you have a tank shredding item such as Black Cleaver or a Last Whisper item.”
“you can kill this drunken boy quite easily if he is not Panunu!”
“When he tries to engage with E try to dodge it and then take him on. The only scary part of Gragas is his ult because it can end up misplacing you. ”
“your R can counter almost all gragas's ablities. you win unless they get a huge lead.”
“Watch for the flash-body slam and/or ult.”
“High bursting potential, but if you dodge it he is Pretty much boned. Watch out for his ult though.”
“High burst damage, but you can simply W his combo. After 6 you got him. Try to dodge his E as most Gragas' will Q on you while you're CCd and try to burst you downä”
“Relatively weak early game, weak first clear. You can walk around the jungle freely without the threat of being invaded by gragas. Watch out for his 1-2 item powerspike as he does have the ability to 1 shot you if not careful.”
“Gragas provides more CC in a team fight and therefore might bring more value to his team early and mid game.”
“He has good gank setups and damage. (not played against him enough to actually know the matchup)”
“Rn he's in a bad spot as a champion. He can burst you from 100 to 0 only after like 30 mins, also his e is a skillshot so you might consider tyring to dodge it. Kepp your distance!”
“He is very mobile early, clears well and healthy, and even scales well too. He is very similar to Sej and often comes down to a skill matchup. ”
“He's gonna spank you. Even if you land an auto, he'll belly bump, smack, and guzzle you down. Just rely on your laners to play safe and not get caught by his lethal ganks. Keep scuttle and drags away from him, and you have advantage.”
“A little bit like Mundo but just more annoying.”
“Lots of damage and a knockback, but definitely manageable. If you dodge his barrel feel free to lay into him.”
“Gragas has many mechanics that enable him to burst you if you aren't careful. You can fight Gragas in the early game, but after first back do not interact with him unless you have an item lead on him.”
“Ok matchup, if he goes Full AP care about getting Bodyslam (E) on the face.”
“AP breaks this build, even with all of your damage. avoid AP.”
“Avoid him before 6, time your Q to dodge his R and he's dead basically.”
“This large man can be hard to secure a kill because of his ultimate in duels and team fights, make sure to time your steadfast presence correctly.”
“Another AP jungler where the 1v1 is most decided by whether or not he gets his E stun off or not. A lot of matchups are decided by who opens up, meaning vision control is key. You can dodge every ability Gragas can throw at you, so be wary of where he is at all times.”
“This tanky obese beer loving [Redacted] is as much as annoying as Pantheon. Compared to other junglers, Gragas clears really slow but can also do it as if it's like he can infinitely buy pots throughout the early game. Most of the time, even on early skirmishes, Gragas can easily survive your all-in combo thanks to his kit. If you forgot to ban him and if you're not okay with going back to base every time he combos you, then what you can all do is farm safely and gank the pushed lane if possible. Denying camps without dying is also advisable, but not required.”
“If you jump him he will probably use his E and do his one shot combo. Don't 1v1 him unless you know his E isn't up.”
“Block his dash with W and then use everything to him. He will win the 1v1 if he catches you off guard.”
“Gragas can go toe to toe with you whether building Tank or AP. Can easily outplay your ult with good dashes over walls.”
“If you're to encounter him in jungle pre 6, run! you'll die easily. Just steal invade properly then counter gank if possible, end the game fast because late game you'll end up dead meat. and FUCK CC :)”
“[4/10] You should be able to 1v1 him unless he has a level or item advantage in the early game. His early clear can be quite slow so if you full clear you’ll have a decent advantage over him. You destroy him later on if you have a tank shredding item such as Black Cleaver or a Last Whisper item. Be aware of the disruption that he can causes with his ult during a teamfight, always wait for him to use his R before leaping in unless you can get a pick instantly.”
“ Gragas is quite a difficult matchup, although difficulty depends on how good the Gragas is. If it is a good Gragas player, difficulty can go up to 9/10, but this is low elo so it's only a 7/10. Gragas will beat you in most 1v1s, making it so you have to avoid him. His ganks are very good early game. He is extremely good in teamfights making it crucial that he doesn't get ahead, as otherwise there is no stopping him.”
“Winnable for both of you, in the current meta i would give Hecarim an edge but if Gragas is good he can do a lot”
“It depends on how good the gragas is. If he Dash flashes you he can burst you down early, but if he doesnt or misses EW and start to kite him. You can handle him but I suggest pinging for a teammate. If you 2v1 him it shouldn't be too much of an issue.
GET BANSHEE'S VEIL. It'll stops his knockup/stun combo and negate a ton of his burst.”
“He can't 1v1 you because of your attack speed. Be careful he can stop your Q with his dash or ultimate. Try to fight him early game if you have the priority of your laners.”
“Get magic resist. He has been really over-powered the past patches. In season 9 he really isnt that good and volibear can outplay him with magic resist.”
“He wont get in your way. He does out damage you but you out heal him. Its really a wet noodle fight focus on getting your team fed and capturing objectives.”
“A lot of burst. Be care of invades and counterganks.”
“Fat boy, not much dueling power against you, probably even, depends if he goes AP or tank, nonetheless, outgank him for easy win.”
“Really strong. Quite easy to invade though but hard to kill. Make sure to be all up on his jung while in the same time keeping an eye out for his team coming to help.”
“you lose this. if he is ahead of you you cannot do anything. he can negate your burst and one shot you. countergank and counterjgl whenever possible”
“lol tiger likes scratching fat belly. Be careful with teamfights/skirmishes though- a good Gragas can nullify Udyr with all his cc”
“Gragas is quite a bit stronger than you early, but after you get form, you beat him easily.”
“Becarefull of the enemy sniper ”
“You can Q a lot of his damage. Save it for his ultimate or Q and you win.”
“You can oneshot him, easy to catch when he's using E, dont let him to R you.”
“You should try invade Gragas because your lvl 2 is much stronger.”
“Pretty hard matchup for us. Anything he does is just perfect for stopping us. He is hard to kill at every stage of the game, he has a ton of CC, he has great peel for his carries, and deals good amounts of dmg early on. The only time we can even be in his jungle is at level 3.”
“i rate him 2 and not 1 bcs it has a little more cc and dmg, easy kill though”
“Solid tank jungler with a good amount of CC. Gragas ultimate can be really useful to split a team before a fight. You can keep up with his damage in early and again your ganks and your potential of picking out a carry are your advantages over him.”
“You can 1v1 Gragas at basically any point of the game unless he has a item / level advantage.”
“harder matchup blow him up when his abilities are on cooldown or just don't fight him at all”
“really just does the same things you do but in a more standard way”
“Not too much of a problem, his ult is the only real threat.”
“Gragas is tanky, Gragas is annoying. The best thing to do in this matchup is to counter gank.”
“Your percent hp damage really hurts him. Just be cautious with your ult as his can displace everyone on your team from it.”
“If enemy Gragas knows how to play, he may pose a threat to you. He can counter your W with dash, same as E. Only thing that makes your life better is the fact that after stealing his ult, you can just throw him far far away.”
“Burst and a good dmg, be careful, get the advantage and evade his skills, good luck!”
“You can dance around him if you play correctly. If you get CC chained you're done though.”
“He was annoying but grag is dead atm
”
“Abilities that throw you away and slow you can be very painful. Imagine this scenario where you are going to use your "Impale" on one champion and this fat guy thow you away or inside the turret wile you are slowed. Nice to meet you bro!”
“Simliar to Lee, he's got strong displacement”
“Gragas has CC and damage, and is tough to kill alone. Don't duel him and counter-gank when you see him show up.”
“With Gragas's buffs in 8.7 it makes him more a threat if he is building AP. His burst is really good so keep that in mind. But you win in most situations.”
“Clears way faster than you and can easily steal away camps with his Q + W + smite combo. If he times it right there is no way you can outsmite him.”
“really tanky shit with high damage, try to not 1v1 him”
“Really annoying, but a trick is to not be scared by the amount of damage he deals in the first 2 seconds of the fight, because after that you will out dps him.
”
“This champ is a hard counter do to his ult canceling yours. So make sure to clear wards before ulting cause i suck when your ult gets canceled”
“After he uses his combo he has nothing. ”
“Don't fight him, since he can do alot of damage.Try to poke him out with your abilities.”
“Gragas is pretty difficult to deal with, even when he is at low health. He is tanky and has lots of CC. Be careful if he is running away from you as he can always turn with a bodyslam and burst you down very quickly if you are chasing him. Good sustain and plenty of damage, avoid fighting with him early. As long as he doesn't get ahead of you there should be no problem to 1v1 him.”
“Same as Sejuani, but worse.”
“Gragas is really weak at the time as im taking this.His kit is not really that good into Kayn because your able to dodge most if not all of his abilities with your R his clear speed is slower compared to Kayn's and you should abuse that by invading early and trying to counters gank him as soon as he shows ”

Tips Against Gragas in Top Lane Tips Provided by MOBAFire Guide Authors
“Gragas top is actually fairly strong early laning so be careful, although not many people play this champion top lane anymore a gragas main is scary early game, once you have a bit of magic resist and HP items as well as your W max though this matchup becomes very easy since he doesn't have the burst to kill you and you can win long trades as well.”
“Just like Galio, Gragas has a nasty combo which can throw you off from your escape route, however, you can also use this to your advantage simply by flashing into his ultimate to send you flying in the opposite direction (over a wall, into your tower) but play it safe into his (Q) > (R) > (E) combo. Which is often set up by leaving his (Q) down for the full duration followed by his (R) as you draw near, while he (E)'s into his (Q) where he has planned to send you. It's very useful to build some magic resistance to help deal with such burst. You can use your (Q) to prevent his empowered damage from his (W) activation.”
“Not that threatening, you can cancel his E with your W. He's disruptive but generally speaking dodgable.”
“Really annoying since if you try to jump on him he will just E on you and negate your jump aswell as stun you briefly so he can proc his TDL and run away. Just farm and try not to fall for his bait's as he can set up for ganks quite well with his E and ult.”
“Every jungler who can gank early is dangerous, Gragas is pretty squishy but does damage and has CC.”
“AP Gragas is a very hard champ to deal with. He will play safe early and then after 6, start making thos OS plays on you. You can block his Ult to fall behind you and knock you forward, but apparently there is a bug where even when blocked, it still knocks you back and deals the full damage. That makes it nearly impossible to kill him unless you have flash.”
“This guy is not very often on the Toplane but if you face him. Do not Ult like 1% under the threshhold. He can heal up with his passive and kill you then”
“No threat if tank. If building AP respect his burst but still a pretty easy match up. We should win all trades early, mid and late. We also outscale.”
“No threat at all if building tank.
If building AP we have to respect his burst. Look for extended trades and punish him when his cooldowns are down. Pretty easy lane.”
“Poke is quite annoying, cancel his Dash and get a free trade in. Stay away from his tower when he has Ult so he does not have the chance to kill you. Should be free as he can not outsustain or outdamage you.”
“A good Gragas is a major threat because of his burst damage and ability to run into you when you're trying to escape.”
“Rare match-up, but moderate. Dodge his Barrel Roll(Q), Body Slam(E), and Explosive Cask(R). and fight him without Drunken Rage(W) out. (Recommended Items: Spirit Visage) (Jaws of Beast follows his E) (Sustained 1v1 Trades: Warwick) (Outscaling Edge: Warwick)”
“FLEET FOOTWORK / SPELLBOOK SETUP - DORANS SHIELD / 3 REJUVENATION BEADS + POT =
Gragas top is one of the most annoying picks ever, he can deal a lot of damage, outkite you, CC lock you and if he gets a lead its really hard to be usefull. In this lane you should look to only farm, don't try to trade with him, he has such a good disengage, damage and a bit of sustain that its not worth trading against him, they also mostly go Phase Rush so its really hard to get on top of him but if you somehow get a chance to kill him because he's low wait for his Phase rush to end and then Wither him, since Phase Rush gives you a slow resistance while its on. In mid game he will try to help his team by setting up kills so look to splitpush and force him to match you in the split until you are 4-5 items, once you get to that point look to do 5v5's he will do damage and provide utility but he won't be able burst you and kill you.”
“Rare match-up, but moderate. Dodge his Barrel Roll(Q), Body Slam(E), and Explosive Cask(R). and fight him without Drunken Rage(W) out. (Recommended Items: Abyssal Mask) (Sustained 1v1 Trades: Gragas) (Outscaling Edge: Even)”
“Gragas can put some pressure on you but you can just rush a magic resist item and all will be easy.”
“Unwinnable lane if he goes phase rush”
“Your spacing should be really well against him in this lane so that you have ample time to get out of his Q slow before he can reach you. Since he will be going AP, his Q will form the major part of his damage so make sure you dodge it at all costs.
Build up a big wave before pushing in to prevent Gragas from being able to directly engage on your with his E. Otherwise, he can W>E>Q you and then finish you off with his Ultimate R quite easily.
If he uses his W or Q to clear the minion wave, look to trade with him as he will have no reliable follow up damage to his E. Be wary of the enemy Jungler as Gragas can set-up ganks quite easily.
”
“You can win this matchup for sure, gragas should never really be able to kill you because he just doesn't have enough damage for how tank you can get and you should be able to hit your E's and some of your Q's on him, he does have pretty good escape but even if you're not able to kill him he really shouldn't ever had the damage to kill you especially after you pick up one magic resist item. ”
“Lane survival, you E, he E, he Q, you Q, tell me a more enjoyable lane to be in? All ins are possible early, if u can bait his E, or if he wastes it, u can also out sutstain his mana too, but once he gets around 20% cdr just leave him and farm, no all in is possible post that point, DO NOT harras him close to his turret especially post 6 cause he will pull some woody fruity wombo combos on you and poop on you, mid to late just split and rotate away from him if he splits vs u, tax his jungler, do trynda stuff you know.”
“Conqueror or Grasp
U will play vs tank Gragas very rarely matchup isnt that hard since you can parry his R”
“Annoying champ more than anything. Phase rush and E max Gragas is obnoxious and hard to play around. You can't all in him as his E will cancel yours and he will phase rush out. Play for scaling”
“This one can be tricky. Gragas has good damage and CC, his sustain is also nice. Try to react to his E with your E: use it on him if you want to trade or away if you don't feel confident. Be careful about his R, it can throw you under his tower and you will be in trouble.”
“Gragas top isn't meta currently(10.16), but it always comes back around eventually. When Gragas top is meta, he's a problem for Riven. His E completely counters her, and his W auto attack can go through your stun and knockup. He also has low mana costs, and good health sustain, so it's hard to get him to run out of mana without you losing too much health unlike the Maokai matchup. With that being said, there are still things you can do to win this matchup. Try to wait until he uses his q to poke/farm, so he can't get a free Q on you after he E's you in a trade. Also try to make sure you don't 3rd Q into him without having your W up if you can, so he isn't able to knock you out of your 3rd Q animation. Gragas out trades Riven in short trades, but when his E is down, you can look for an all in, but be aware that he can try to ult you away.”
“Going against Gragas is pretty easy. Make sure you space far enough away so he can't all in you with his E. After he hits 6 be careful of his ult and try not to let him engage onto you.”
“Fleet Footwork Runes and Build. Ignite + Flash. Dorans shield start. Gragas has pretty good sustain and can deny any kind of all in opportunities with his body slam which is really good disengage. Merc treads and/or tenacity on your rune page is pretty good against him because it works against his bodyslam stun. Gragas will usually build 40% CDR so his body slam will be up constantly to stun you and disengage. The way you beat gragas in laning phase is by outsustaining him (usually his mana pool) before he gets iceborn gauntlet (or another mana item) or if you can manage to land a few crits with spin damage you can maybe burst him down with ignite as well. If the Gragas is playing well, you can just play this as a farming matchup. In the mid-late game splitpush Gragas can be really annoying to dive, so just shove him in and out rotate him with your superior mobility.”
“Match up relativement rare, mais pénible, gragas ne vas rien faire d'autre que farm à distance avec son A, et de temps en temps de faire un combo de sort en abusant du rush phasique, cela consiste a te dash dessus, A pour te ralentir et mettre un coup blanc booster par son Z avant de reculer avec le boost de vitesse du rush phasique.
Ceci étant dit je ne met que 2 de menace, car il n'a clairement par les dégâts pour te tuer en début de partie, et si il fait une erreur d'utilisation de son E, tu le punis et le tue sans aucun problème avec ton fantôme. Essaie d'éviter son E quand il veut te poke, et ce sera une lane très facile.”

“1v1: E & Res |

Boots: Beserker's / Swifty |
1st Core Item: Nashor's Tooth |
Optional Item: Null-Magic Mantle”
“Don't think you are going to see lane Gragas too much but if you do, it's a fairly easy lane. If he goes tank you should win every all in against him, just windwall his q and back out if he is charging up his W since he has a lot of damage reduction in that form for a couple seconds, If he goes pure ap, get an early hex so he can't one shot you and its' free.”
“Surprisingly annoying matchup with his Q being near undodgeable with high damage and low cooldown, he has very strong gank assist so you best bet is to just rush T2 boots and juke his barrels. If you watch enough Baus and Panunu Gragas plays you will see that they have small telltale signs of when they're about to full CC burst combo you which you need to pick up on.”
“Hardest counter for wukong. Luckily he is not very often on top. He is beatable in early lvls all ins if u know the cooldowns(you have lower cooldown on E than his E so that's small window you can use) or if he has bad runes ( no phase rush), but the best strategy is to ask jungler for help. After 6 his disengage tools are just too big, u cannot all in really.”
“hard match up because he can poke u with Q and deny you all in with E but get your mercury treads with legend of tenacity in mid game
but in early game try to get his E or just simply use your Q on him to get his E after that your Q cd is lower than his E cd only in early game”
“Phase Rush gragas has very good sustain and can take some nasty trades where you can't even fight back, if you rush mercs first item and take unflinching its not that rough.
Build executioners.
Take MR”
“Very strong against Wukong TopLane. Not only he can you from E him, his whole kit is strong against you.
”
“Depends on how good he is, what hes building aswell.
Otherwise it should be a breeze, Be wary when ulting him, He can R you away from him and waste your time with his E and Q”
“Try to avoid getting poked out by his q and just all in you Will always outdamage him”
“Gragas is quite a bad champion, he is good at snowballing lanes and making plays, but overall his damage is low if he builds Tanky and he gets one shot if he builds AP. ”
“Good sustain + disengage
Get mercs / tenacity in rune page
Outsustain mana pool
Out rotate him late game
Fleet Runes”
“Annoying matchup. You can't kill him, and every time you try to trade him, he will win.
Don't trade against Gragas.”
“Prior to 6 passive. Post 6 agro when ult is up.
Not much to say for this one. pretty easy very standard.”
“You cannot stop Gragas E with your E. Your E will be cancelled upon collision with Gragas E.
As Quinn, it is quite impossible to stop his ganks. He has both CC and high burst damage.
Tip: Play safe when he is the enemy jungler. Remember to ward well and pay attention to pings. You really can't do much against him.
”
“Mit etwas Magieresistenz ist die Lane recht einfach zu gewinnen
Runen: 2, 3”
“Consider Dodging!
Dodge his Q and E his W !
If you try to engage he will always E you thats why you should use you E to get closer to him AFTER he used his E!!
Rather play safe since the trades are not in your favor!”
“If he goes CDR/Tank Gragas you have more of a chance to escape rather than his AP variant. Dodge Q's, harass him constantly, and abuse his long CD's early game. If he goes AP just beware that his full combo kills you unless you have some MR. Coordinate ganks and abuse range advantage. ”
“No threat if tank. If building AP respect his burst but still a pretty easy match up. We should win all trades early, mid and late. We also outscale.”
“Very hard matchup. You can never engage on him which makes every potential rune kinda useless. Play around his short E CD and try W max.”
“Against tank Gragas it's a farmfest, and AP Gragas is just good at one-shotting squishies which is not what you are. Free stacks.”
“I've seen good gragas players. If you run into one you will have a bad game.”
“Get some magic resist, he boutta bop you to the defeat screen.”
“He can ult you out of the safety of your boxes post 6, but before then try to get him to use his dash in to your turrets. Be careful about letting him land it since it's often too short to bring him all the way into your box setup. Let him land Qs once in a while if you have a good box setup to bait.”
“Tanks are all very similar other than nasus, rush cleaver mortal and deathdance, e their cc move and long trade them with auto+qs”
“Gragas? Who dat? Is that the one that only gets played in ARAM by people who couldn't trade and had no rerolls? ”
“Take conqueror and this matchup becomes a lot easier. The true damage will help against his W and natural tankiness. Otherwise, consider a hexdrinker if he decides to go heavy AP for some reason. Grab cleaver if he builds tanky. You should be able to easily out-duel him midgame and lategame as long as you're not behind.”
“Go Doran's Shield to deal with his barrel poke and general sustain from his passive and go for Conqueror. All-in him every time you can and zone him off of farm and XP. He can't step up against you at all. The only form of safety he has against you is his ult and his Body Slam (which you can exploit by using your combo properly). He is probably gonna spam barrels to farm and never come close if he is smart. That's fine because he will miss a ton of farm that way.”
“He can't do much to you, unless he is building AP then build MR. Use your Apprehend when he uses his Body Slam.”
“His combo is straight up BS. Take Grasp or Phase Rush. He shouldn't be able to 1 shot you when you have enough HP. Get Banshee and Merc Threads into Abyssal and you should be fine. Take Heal with you to negate his combo damage output.”
“This f*cker is scarier when AP than when tanky, due to the recent change to his W and all the CC he has.”
“Lane Aproach: Anytime if he has no bodyslam up, you win long trades.
Key CDs:E/R
Notes:CP, stand behind creeps vs bodyslam, abuse his pushing to manipulate the wave - he only has AoE skills and cant freeze.”
“Your enemy doesn't have insurance, of course he'll lose.”
“dodge his barrels, save your e for when he uses his, dont get ulted into his tower”
“Gragas has tons of armor and health late game. Use their health and armor early game as an advantage. Late game will be hard to take them down. They will also deal lots of damage if you don't take them out early game, so beware.”
“I've never been against gragas, but he shouldn't be able to kill you. Don't overextend and you should be fine.”
“He has a lot of CC and is tanky even when building damage, so you got to watch out for him. By himself he isn't so bad to face, but with buddies around he can be a terrifying force. Avoid his E to prevent his full combo and you should do well.”
“Gragas is pretty strong against akali kinda easy to beak though”

Tips Against Gragas in Middle Lane Tips Provided by MOBAFire Guide Authors
“You have better waveclear and hes melee so you can keep poking him before level 6. Don't get hit by his bodyslam or he will chunk you for a big amount of your health and maybe even kill you after level 6 if he has ignite.”
“Pre 6 he will try to poke you with his Q until you are low enough hp for him to all-in with flash. Get boots fast, and recall whenever you are low hp. Post-6: Watch out for his E+Flash into ult. Farm towards your second item banshee's veil and you are safe. ”
“This is mostly a troll pick, but if you disrespect it, he can take over your lane very easily. He will only kill you if you allow him to land his dash E on you to begin his combo or if lands an Ult on you towards him or under his turret. Both of these shouldn't be a problem with proper spacing as you will outrange both of these abilities with yours to poke him out and dominate lane.
Recommend: Barrier and Dmg Build”
“A good Gragas can outplay you hard, but he is melee so just harass the hell out of him early and mid game. ”
“Rare match-up, but moderate. Dodge his Barrel Roll(Q), Body Slam(E), and Explosive Cask(R). and fight him without Drunken Rage(W) out. (Recommended Items: Liandry's Torment and Spirit Visage or Abyssal Mask) (Mega Adhesive negates his E) (Fling overrides his E) (Sustained 1v1 Trades: Singed) (Outscaling Edge: Singed)”
“Don't really see him in mid-lane anymore but you need to be careful against him. Pretty much a skill match-up but don't underestimate him. You need to be careful if chasing him as he can turn on you with his body slam because of it's low cooldown. It is possible for you to use your (E) to leap over all of his abilities, use this to your advantage. He gets tanky as the game progresses so look for kills elsewhere after level 6 unless you have a clear chance of killing him.”
“His all-ining potential is huge. If you lane against him be very cautious at level 6 as his ult will send you flying into him and his jungler for an easy kill on you. Poke as usual and if you know where the enemy jungler is try and kill him with the all-in combo.”
“A very niche pick that you could encounter, and luckily not a very difficult one. Take note of the fancy combos Gragas can pull off post 6 with his body slam -> ulting and dunking you into the pre-placed barrel. Aside from the YouTube clips, just make sure to avoid walking into places with no vision since Gragas can be just sitting there, which wastes his time if you do not give him the kill. Laning is fairly simple. He has a barrel, and that's pretty much it, unless he plans on an all-in which consists of his body slam which can be dodged with decent positioning. ”
“Gragas isn't annoying... you can kill him easily I believe. ”
“Pretty easy matchup care for his combo he does an insane amount of damage and you won't be expecting it”
“HE give u belly punch (E) so be carefule ”
“Not really hard, take care of his early burst, he got more dmg than you in early, but you can poke him with AA and land free charm on his dash. Use your ultimate to position yourself when he's ulting you. You got a better clear and a slightly better roam so use it.”
“He is too tanky to burst. KIlling him will be hard but he wont likely kill you. Get ahead in CS or roam.”
“Getting anti heal against Big Chungus would be good since he can fairly well tank your poke with Doran's Shield and his passive.
Do not let him get his E off when you're out of the minion wave and watch for the ult, don't get pushy.
He might look jolly and all but he'll drink you under the table if you're not careful.”
“Deceivingly hard lane to play. Will poke with his barrel constantly. Is not able to do too much damage before getting items but can disengage from you easily with slows and cc. Play safe when he has AP items because he starts to hurt. If you are low and he begins a body slam that looks like it will miss you are most likely going to want to flash because he might flash on you. His body slam is charmable. Also has constant sustain in lane because of passive, if your jungler stops his body slam by blocking it you might be able to get his flash or possibly even a kill.”
“I don't understand this guy he doesn't take any damage and destroys you in miliseconds just avoid picking Karma please. Take teleport/barrier”
“the better the gragas the worse it is to lane against him, be careful that he might try to q somewhere then body slam R you to the barrel he has put(panunu style)”
“Nothing much about this one,It's pretty easy to harass and pretty easy to maintain wave control and sustain war against him. Make sure at 6 level don't get outplayed with the classic panunu combos since today gragas got some ability casting timers, so yea you have time to react to that,it's not like season 3.”
“Gragas is a tricksy champion too. Be VERY CAREFUL when you fight with him and always find a way to outplay him.”
“Gragas mid isn't played that much but even when it is , it's not that big of a deal. He does have CC and Damage reduction which make him rather difficult to poke or trade with but so long as you mind his early burst damage you'll outscale him in no-time.”
“Super pokey and does a ton of damage, rush hexdrinker and engage only when you feel confident enough”
“you poke him too hard to be a good champ to lane against you. Do not let him walk to the minions and he is done for. Start dark seal.”
“Thankfully you don't see Gragas mid very much, but when you do, you're in for some hurt. The difficulty of this matchup is largely based on how well the Gragas plays, but it's honestly pretty hard for him to mess it up. His Body Slam beats everything. He can use it to interrupt your ult and throw a fermenting Q in your escape path and even ult you into the fermenting Q and hityou with an empowered auto from Drunken Rage. The best time to engage on Gragas is if you get him low with poke damage or if he wastes his Body Slam on some other target. No Body Slam == free damage for you.”
“This champ exists? LOL”
“This big boi has a lot of sustain and can easily counter your all in's, I have played against a good amount of Gragas Mid players and what i found out is when you cast they normally E back. That's how you bait their E and that's when you fight”
“Gragas could be a hard match up if the player is good at him,look out for ganks,try to poke and stay under tower after he hits 6 ”
“Just be smart. Grag has a lot of damage tho, so respect his ganks”
“You need good reflexes in this matchup.
When he E's onto you, just E away he will outtrade you.
Same as R just E away.”
“Be aware of his bodyslam you can e when he throws a Q at you. Jump on one of the sides to avoid a predicted body slam”
“Gragas is fairly annoying when playing Akali since he can poke you down with his Q. His E is a good counter to your E or even your ult. His ult can easily blow you out of your W. You can usually win vs him early game but late game is when you need your team.”
