Gragas Tips and Tricks
- Drunken Rage gives Gragas a substantial amount of damage reduction for a short period of time after he starts using it. Try to time this skill in order to minimize damage from high damage dealing skills.
- Proper use ofExplosive Cask and Body Slam can result in easy kills. Explosive Cask can also be used to push enemies under your turret and a lot more.
- Gragas is very diverse build-wise as he can be built to be a tank, glass cannon AP carry or a mix of those two.
- Body Slam can dash through some of the smaller walls in the game, luckily, there's some which give Gragas easy access to the Baron and Dragon pit.
- Gragas can be very hard to play and in general he's a high-skill cap champion. It will take a lot of time to master him but it will be worth it!

Gragas Jungle Pathing Guide
Jungle Pathing represents the choices jungle players make in regards to when and where to gank, invade or just path towards. It includes how camps and buffs are cleared between ganks, anticipating counterganks, and spotting opportunities for invading. Effective pathing requires deep understanding of your champion's abilities, their interactions, and how both team compositions play into those choices.
Full clear with a Red Buff start
The recommended jungle path for Gragas starts on Red Buff with Drunken Rage at level one. After Red, unlock Barrel Roll for additional AoE and clear Krugs, then Raptors. This gets you level three where you take Body Slam. From there, path into Wolves, Gromp and Blue Buff. At level four, upgrade Barrel Roll before contesting Rift Scuttler and looking for a gank or reset.
The route leverages Gragas' high clear speed to secure gold and XP leads. An alternative is starting Raptors leashless with Barrel Roll, then moving Krugs into Red Buff.
For aggression, a Raptors → Red → Krugs start gets you level three fast with Body Slam available for gap closing during ganks.
