Learn how to Gragas counter with these essential tips.
Tags:
All
Maintain distance from teammates during objectives and teamfights — Gragas's R can knock your entire team into a disadvantageous position if grouped too closely.
Team Fight
Look for extended trades when Gragas's abilities are on cooldown — without his abilities, he can only auto-attack, giving you a significant advantage in extended exchanges.
Basic Lane Phase Skirmish
Position behind minions but not too close to them during laning — his E (Body Slam) stops at the first unit hit but has AoE damage that can still hit you if you're nearby.
Basic Lane Phase
Never position too far forward from your team — Gragas can use his R to knock you into his team, potentially resulting in a quick death and lost objectives.
Team Fight Skirmish
Move away immediately when Gragas places his Q barrel — after 2 seconds of fermentation, it deals 50% more damage and applies a significantly stronger slow.
Lane Phase Skirmish
Back off when Gragas activates his W (Drunken Rage) — he gains 10-18% damage reduction and his next attack will deal significant bonus damage.
Lane Phase Skirmish
Gragas can Flash during his E (Body Slam) to unexpectedly extend his engage range and bypass minion blocks.
Advanced Lane Phase Skirmish
Harass Gragas consistently to keep his health low — this prevents him from positioning aggressively and makes him less effective in all-ins.
Basic Lane Phase
Attack Gragas when he channels his W — during the 0.75-second channel, he's committed to the animation and vulnerable to harassment.
Advanced Lane Phase
