How to play Gragas


Gragas is a magic damage-based champion with mobility, crowd control, damage, self-healing and tankiness. Gragas is ok in the early game but as the game gets into the mid/late game, you can pull off some nice combos to carry the team fights. One of the combos is by using Gragas's Body Slam, once you hit his Body Slam you can use his Barrel Roll and Explosive Cask to deal a lot of damage.

Gragas can also be played in the Baron Lane and Jungle, make sure to check the alternative build at the top of the page! The build with Gragas jungle is very similar however Gragas Baron Lane you want to build a bit more tankiness. There is not much else that is different in terms of play styles.

Gragas' Abilities


Happy Hour (Passive)

Casting an ability restores health. This helps Gragas stay healthy in the laning phase especially when actively fighting. The passive works really well with Drunken Rage (2nd Ability) so not only do you heal a bit of health, but you also take reduced damage.

Barrel Roll (1)

Gragas rolls a barrel to a target location that explodes upon re-casting or after a few seconds. Enemies hit take magic damage and are slowed for a few seconds. The damage and slow amount increase over the first few seconds, by up to 150%.

You mainly want to use this ability to poke down the enemy in the laning phase or to last hit minions if you don't feel comfortable walking up and hitting them directly.

Barrel Roll also reveals the area hit so if you are scared to check a brush because you think someone might be sitting in there, throw your barrel in to check before walking in.

Drunken Rage (2)

When activated, Gragas does an animation and during this time, damage taken is reduced for a few seconds. Gragas cannot attack or cast spells during this ability so make sure you activate it early or in a safe place.

The next attack within a few seconds after drinking is empowered to splash nearby enemies for bonus magic damage. This empowered attack is effective when you want to quickly clear the minion wave because of the splash damage and when you want to engage.

Body Slam (3)

This is your main engage and crowd control ability. Gragas charges forward, colliding with the first enemy hit to deal magic damage to nearby enemies. Enemies hit are also bumped backwards, stunning them for a second. Body Slam's cooldown is reduced by a few seconds if it successfully collides with an enemy.

You can combo Body Slam with Flash fairly easily. This allows your charge to go even further and you can surprise enemies most of the time. To do this combo correctly you need to use Body Slam and whilst you are in the charge animation use Flash and the animation will carry on after Flash or it will stop if you Flash onto an enemy.

Explosive Cask (Ultimate)

Gragas hurls a barrel that explodes when it lands, dealing magic damage and knocking enemies away from the explosion's centre. Explosive Cask will make or break a teamfight. Make sure you manually aim your ultimate because sometimes you can knock enemies away from you to safety when you don't want to.

When used correctly, you can use your ultimate at the start of the fight to knock enemies towards you and then you can combo that with Body Slam (3rd Ability) to stun them followed by a Drunken Rage (2nd Ability) auto-attack to deal a lot of damage.

Gragas Build Breakdown


Luden's Echo
Rabadon's Deathcap
Void Staff
Infinity Orb
Lich Bane
Ionian Boots of Lucidity - Protobelt

Gragas builds Ability Power items so he can do a lot of damage with all of his abilities and combos. Luden's Echo is a great first item that gives Gragas a great amount of Ability Power and Ability Haste and also some Maximum Mana that can help him stay in fights longer. After Luden's Echo, you want to build more Ability Power items like Rabadon's Deathcap and Void Staff so he can scale well into the late game.


With runes, we have:

Electrocute

When playing Gragas you can do some really nice combos that use 3 separate attacks and abilities which means you can proc the damage from Electrocute.

Triumph

Good way to get some extra ability power that can help at all stages of the game.

Bone Plating

Since Gragas is a melee champion and he will be dashing in a lot he will be vulnerable to taking a lot of damage. Bone plating will help Gragas take reduced damage from the first three instances of damage which will help him survive longer.

Hunter - Genius

Gragas loves to engage and get involved in team fights and he will get a lot of takedowns. After every unique takedown, Gragas gets Ability Haste so he can use his abilities more often.

Flash
Ignite

For summoner spells, Flash is a must on most champions. It's a great spell to get out of a situation or if you are trying to go in for that killing blow. For the 2nd spell, Ignite is amazing for Gragas when you look for the solo kill, it will help you deal that extra bit of damage over time.

Early Game


Gragas does quite well in the laning phase. You can use his Barrel Roll to poke down the enemy and at the same time, it will also heal Gragas because of his passive Happy Hour. Once you hit level 3 you can look for a solo kill on the enemy. First, use your Drunken Rage to enhance your next auto attack then use Gragas's Body Slam to jump into the enemy and you can deal a lot of early game damage.

Late Game


Gragas scales quite well into the late game dealing a lot of damage with his abilities and combos however he can be very squishy so keep that in mind. With Gragas, you always want to stay grouped with your team. Gragas has a lot of crowd control that can be used to help his team get an advantage. When you are grouped with your team and about to have a team fight, the best thing you want to do is get to their backline where you can kill the enemy carries. 

Conclusion


Overall Gragas can do a lot in the early game and punish the enemy champions if they step out of place. You can play very safe with him because of his passive and he has a big presence in team fights.
