The fact that you more than double your Magic Resist before the game even begins gives me reason to believe why you could win 9 times in a row. Usually early game is all about those mages shutting everyone down but when those games fall apart because you can basically laugh at a lablanc with a full mejai's stack... I can just kind of see how satisfying it would be. The map control and freedom to push must be amazing.

Barrel roll is amazing even as a tank, 40% attack speed reduction!!!
would like to see more variation on the builds other than tank, but +1 =D

Yeah I love surviving 5 man ganks and escaping with trusty E :D

<3 thanks for comment

exact same way I play the G-man. I played him....twice? Survived a 5 man gank soloing top. was fun. XD

Thanks for nice comments :D! ^_^

Great tank build. Even with such a tanky build, my damage output is ace. This is definitely
an option when my team has no tanks.

I love the different builds, nice descriptions.

+1 all the way :)

yes barrel is quite useless for a tank but, in my opinion, gragas have 4 good skill and I think is better if I find the way to use all of them, early game 1 point on barrel help me to take more last hit and harass my opponent.

btw... next matchs I try without the barrel. XD

Really liking this so far ill try it out in a ranked later and tell you what I think

I think people are over exaggerating the use of barrel roll for a tank gragas (remember we're not AP so our barrels will do terrible damage), this is a different approach by means of items, not just skills. And if you choose to go tank gragas, barrel roll isn't going to be a useful farming skill anyway because it doesn't 1 hit them until level 5 and you got to have some decent AP for that to happen as well.

With drunken rage at level 1 you can 3~5 hit the minions which is relatively good and also you can always choose to last hit which is what i do. My average is about 50~60 minion kills at 15minutes which i think is good, and you can compare that with actual farmers and you're about 30~40 less depending on again your laning partner, ganks etc.

EDIT I'll take your suggestion on board, i kind of agree, afting just testing, that body slam only needs 1 point for the start and thanks *UPDATED* now :-)

5/1/18
start with body slam and take first blood at lvl 1 XD
the build is good but:

Dont take barrel roll is not a different approach.... is only stupid.
barrel roll is mandatory for farm (how u can farm the warmog without the barrel?!!?!?!?)
U dont need more than 1 point on body slam early game (u need atma and 5 points in drunken rage for do good dmg with body slam)
my suggestion for the skill:
barrel roll
drunken rage
body slam
drunken rage
drunken rage
explosive Cask
than max drunken rage and body slam.

This is a different approach to the majority of Gragas builds out there, you've just highlighted what i've basically said in this build in the pro's and con's. This build has also generally worked for me and it's really fun :-)

but, thanks for the feedback...didn't really deserve a -ve (or whoever it was) for something i've already expressed. Don't knock it until you've tried it!
