Gragas Matchups Overview

Gragas General information

Gragas tips and tricks

Throw your Ultimate Explosive CaskR just behind the enemy to ensure they get knocked forward. Placing it on top of them may knock them in the wrong direction.

Staying off to the side while your team groups can allow you to flank the enemy and knock them into your teammates.

Stand outside of the minion wave as much as you can so the enemy is unable to push you under your Tower and poke you at the same time.
