Introduction

His Lovely Face
Hi all Im YPYN Propain currently on NA Server and i play AP mid for my clan most of the time and of my top 3 favorite AP Mids is my Gragas! I bought him long ago before i knew about shushei and all the famous people and immedietly fell in love with him, even though shushei plays a mean gragas don't get me wrong :3.Please read the entire guide if you want a thorough depth of how i play gragas you can do your own way if you feel the need this is just a guide/build on how i play him.I play Graggy as ap burst tanky in his own ways, enough with this chapter let us move on, Enjoy :D!

Pros:
1.Heavy Burst.
2.Good Escape ability
3.Epic ultimate to initiate.
4.Great Chaser.
5.Takes less damage.
6.Free mana
7.Great farm.
Cons
1.Mana costly If you spam.
2.Focused often.
3.Ulti can backfire if used wrong
4.Has to melee last hit can be hard against ranged ap if the challenge you.

Greater Seal of Vitality-You do not need mana too much in my opinion you get a good amount whenever your




I roll a well balanced Mastery page 21/0/9 i take all the damage i can that i benifet from in the offense and aim for the MS and the 20% increased on buffs, baron and blue buffs are great to have especially 20% longer.
i have tried 9/21/0 and its okay i just dont really think he should be tanky he has his W and is tanky enough i feel Sraight damage masteries is perfect.

EARLY GAME
Boot's Of Speed
Health Potionx3 This i feel Is more perfect than a dorans ring, 450 HP From pots and be able to run in and out for cs and escape ganks easier is DEFINATELY better than a dorans ring which you sell later in the game.
Sorcerer's Shoes- Usually my first item i buy when i back because i frankly never stack
Doran's Ring's unless i am doing HORRIBLY bad and need to sustain my lane. easier.
MID GAME
Rabadon's Deathcap- The best AP item for a AP Nuke, what more do you want? If you are doing bad in lane and run dorans rings i usually go
Rylai's Crystal Scepter to sustain till i get my deathcap.
Void Staff- I Run the void staff as my 3rd major item because well i usually do well in my lane and when i get fed i dont have to worry about survivability and i can just pack that Extra punch to kill sooo much faster and eliminate any MR resists left over.
LATE GAME
Rylai's Crystal Scepter- Late game if it carries out you need to get survivability because people will focus you so the extra slow with your E will easily make you able to catch opponets and that health is great not to mention AP all around great item.
Abyssal Mask- The MR Reduction is golden. and free MR and AP for yourself nice item.
LATE LATE GAME ><
My last item is a choice up to What i really need or i really Feel.
Zhonya's Hourglass-I usually pick this great 100 AP and a free untargetable for two seconds to remove stuff or run in there make them focus you, and just use that :3
Lich's Bane-I ran this once or twice kinda liked it, good MR AP and the passive makes your auto attack HURT because you get free AD from
Drunken Rage and the MS if you need more! helps ><.
Moonflair Spellblade- REALLY underated item if you feel the team has alot of CC you can have your Magic pen boots and tenacity and a tad bit AP it just really helps out.
*ALWAYS BUY ELIXERS/ORACLES WHEN BUILDS ARE COMPLETE PRACTICLY A WALKING BARON*

Explosive Cask can be used when defending yourself or an ally push them back or hunting down a enemy or even initating. I also use this to split up team especcially when a


MY COMBO ON HOW TO USE GRAGAS ABILITES
Early game lvl 4-5 he has amazing damage, if your AP mid has balls to fight near you grab a drink of




I use this combo in team fights as well just add a




ALTERNATIVES
The only two alternatives would be maybe a top lane gragas, as a


I usually last hit my creeps because i can easily do it with my
Drunken Rage but your
Barrel Roll and
Body Slam combo means insta kill wave, sometimes even just a Q which makes gragas an awesome Farmer, can even steal your jungle wraiths/theirs just dont tell them :) be wary though if you use Q Alot even your Drunken rage wont be able to keep up.



Gragas Excels at ganking Top and Bot lane when he hits 6 or pre 6 he can rush down there fast, pop his ultimate and then
Body Slam to them for the slow and they just got a free kill or two also please ping when you gank it really helps your team be aware.
Buy wards whenever you can!!! help your team, and ward around especially your lane!
Call MIA When your lane goes missing :3

It is very viable with his
Body Slam A slow and his
Explosive Cask knockback and can actually do it pretty fast with a blue. With his body slam you can run everywhere and gank well.
Masteries: i grab a hybrid type to clear early and still hold my AP carnage to gank.
For runes i run the armor penetration to jungle quicker, and armor seals to withstand jungle, and attack speed glyphs to down it all faster, for my quints i grab more health because gragas is very squishy in jungle with just boots and pots.
Items: I go boots and pots first because lets face it the jungle is so weak i can do boots pots on nearly any champion as long as they got minor sustain.early you want GP5 items to get some gold by the 30-40 minute mark you can sell these easily for your money back and more. and after those two i just grab my normal AP Build.
Skills: your passive
Happy Hour lets you sustain a bit longer without potions use as much.i Do
Body Slam first as it helps clear jungle faster and gank easier, getting 3 points early then i run my normal AP Barrel skill.
Route: i Do blue and just run around, gragas can gank very easy and roam everywhere when you need it most. [always get a pull on blue pull or else you will die usually] Farm whenever you get the chance as he needs farm to build ap mid game even with GP5 items it falls off.
And thats how i play jungle gragas, dont believe the non believers it is ver affective! :D
