Playing against Gragas

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

1

Gragas' R knocks back massively: stay spread from your allies so he doesn't push you all together.

2

His E can be stopped by CC during the dash — a stun or knockup stops him dead.

3

If Gragas misses his E, he loses his main engage and burst damage for ~12s.

4

His Q is visible on the ground: move out of the zone before he detonates it.
