How to Trade

  • Your trading pattern revolves around E engage into immediate W-Q-auto combo, using Q knockup to extend the trade duration.
  • You must commit fully to trades since Gragas will poke you down if you take short trades and disengage.

Wave Control

  • You want to keep waves pushed toward Gragas to create longer lanes for your all-ins, but be careful not to overextend without vision.
  • Freezing near his tower also works well since you can run him down if he steps up to farm.

Mistakes to Avoid

  • Never waste your E for waveclear or minor trades, as it's your only gap closer and escape tool.
  • Getting poked down below 60% HP without E available makes you extremely vulnerable to Gragas's burst combo.
