As ive just started to play gragas, he is a very fun champ to play and very powerful. Yes he takes sum skill landing his barrels but beside for that he is a very good farmer, laner, late game scaling and ap tanky :D

Ive only played 3 games with him but i have won all 3, so lemme no what you think of gragas and why he is underplayed

Well i thinks its because people dont Understand how good he is.

He might be harder to play because hes a skill shot champ. But his ultimate and his Ap ratios make his 3 skills rape hard.

Plus his Barrel thing that he drinks to get more mana helps out his laning phase a lot.

Also you can even play him tank.

So in my opinion he is probably my most played Ap Caster/Carry a little Op in a way.
Thanks to Nameless and Miss Maw

Pretty easy champ to play. Pretty fun. Dunno why people don't like playing him. He's a pain in the *** to play against, too.

He's really tough, but his barrels are incredibly easy to dodge at long ranges. He has a niche role that he fills rather well, but other than that he has his downfalls.

I bought him when he went on sale, and I like him a lot. What I've noticed is that it only takes a RoA to make him tanky (other than the 3 doran's rings I usually buy), and after that he can build heavy AP.

I love Gragas a lot. I've had people queue dodge from simply assuming that Gragas is bad because people had said so. He does massive damage.

He's pretty weak in my experience. Stopped even trying to play him after the nerfs a while ago.
It's a free win every time I face a Gragas. He just can't do anything other than roll his damn barrel and that's pretty easy to avoid..

His Q is nice, but Lux has a better version.
His W is nice, but was hit with the nerf bat a lot.
His E is good for escapes but nerfed also, and the damage and CC aren't worth it being ranked past 1 point.

His ult is hugely unreliable. A very make-or-break skill for team fights.

Overall, Gragas is fun, but not very viable unless you're really REALLY good at him.

Gragas can actually do a ton of damage in a side lane when paired with the right partner and has a ton of staying power. I remember a recent game where bot lane got stomped by a Gragas+Shen combo. His E does a lot more damage than you'd think, to be honest, especially with the amount of level 1 AP this gragas had.

@Jebus McAzn:



You're forgetting the bit where, if there's a single other enemy unit present at impact the damage turns to fairy dust.
