Learn how to play with Graves with these essential tips.
Tags:
All
Fight Graves' enemies in jungle corridors or near walls whenever possible — his Q detonates almost instantly on hitting terrain instead of after its normal 2-second delay, letting him land full damage faster in tight spaces.
Skirmish Team Fight
Give Graves a clear line of fire when grouping for scuttle crab or camp contests — his passive pellets stop on the first unit hit, so jungle monsters or minions between him and the target will absorb the damage instead.
Basic Skirmish
Coordinate ganks for when enemies are caught inside Graves' W smoke cloud — the nearsight lasts 4 seconds, making it hard for them to see you approaching or find an escape route.
Team Fight Skirmish
Watch for Graves reaching level 3 early — with a point in each of his abilities he becomes a real threat in skirmishes, so be ready to follow up around scuttle crab or early river fights.
Basic Skirmish
Save crowd control to peel for Graves in skirmishes rather than burning it early — his E grants bonus armor and magic resistance, but no other defenses, so he still goes down quickly once locked down despite his early dueling strength.
Team Fight Skirmish
Account for Graves recoiling 400 units backward when he casts his R — track his new position for follow-up rather than where he originally cast from during ganks or team fights.
