Spells:
Ghost
Teleport
Ability Order
Happy Hour (PASSIVE)
Gragas Passive Ability

PROS:
- Great Damage Reduction!
- Can Displace Multiple Enemies!
- Can Initiate with the best of them!
- AoE Damage Galore!
- Incredibly Difficult to Kill!
- Great Farming and Last Hitting!

CONS:
- Not the best spell damage
- Usually has to be at the front of a fight to do well(as with most tanks)
- Difficult to Focus Damage onto one enemy
there are several things to look at with this rune build.
- greater mark of desolation: this gives you the penetration to be dangerous early to mid game. with the extra damage from
Drunken Rage. last hitting minions should be no problem for farming.
Greater Seal of Armor: the armor is always helpful with you being the tank. the more damage you take, the better! :)
Greater Glyph of Magic Resist: the magic resistance works the same way as armor, just that it blocks damage from ability casters like
Annie's burst.
Greater Quintessence of Cooldown Reduction: the cooldown should be enough that you will always be able to keep drunken rage up, or just about close enough to matter.
Viable Summoner Spells:
![]() Great for tanks in my opinion! they tend to be slower than the rest of the team, so this lets you jump right to the edge of the fight, then initiate! |
SPACE |
I like this for the same reason i like![]() you can also use this as an escape spell. |
SPACE |
![]() This is the last spell i would recommend as a tank. you can use it to chase enemies, or top try and escape from them. |

This will be a tricky section because, as with all games, you must build entirely for that particular game. the biggest things to watch out for are the options of boots, as well as what goes into the final slot.
Ninja Tabi works well with any tank, let alone
Gragas. the reasoning is that they can damage you if they cant hit you! this works very well against strong, DPS foes such as
Xin Zhao or
Ashe. if you find you are facing a lot of magic damage and stuns, the best route to go would be mercury treds. the magic resistance decreases damage, while the Crowd Control Reduction keeps you moving. this works well if you are facing champions like
Annie or even other tanks with stuns like
Amumu. As of the final item slot, i gave you 2 viable options. i personally like to have
Spirit Visage because it is a bit cheaper and works hand in hand with your passive. if you find yourself wanting a bit more damage, i recommend
Tiamat. it not only gives you damage, but a bit more regen and a large amount of slash damage! combine this with your
Drunken Rage damage buff and you are dealing an extra 100+ damage as a tank!










Laning:
- When you are laning, your main goal is to focus on last hitting minions with your
Drunken Rage attack buff. When not focusing on the minions, use you
Barrel Roll and
Body Slam to harass the enemy champions away from the minions. the best way to thing about this is that Minions=Gold. if they can get in any kills, they get far less gold. and dont be afraid to throw the barrels freely, the mana buff from
Drunken Rage should be able to keep you going with the harassment.
Team Fights:
- in team fights the biggest thing to remember is that YOU MUST BE FIRST IN!!! you are the tank, you are the initiator, you are the one who gives your team the biggest edge possible! DO NOT be afraid to jump into the thick of it again and again with
Body Slam. the best way for you to initiate is, of course, your Ultimate
Explosive Cask. this displaces enemy champions, allowing your team a distinct advantage by being able to pick off one or 2 enemy champions, rather than face 5 at once. the other thing to remember is that YOU CALL THE FOCUS!!! be sure to remind your team occasionally that they need to fucus the people blasted away from the enemy group, rather than the larger section that stayed in one clump.
I Hope this guide helps you in your
Gragas Journey! Please feel free to comment with your suggestions and advice! and please, no troll votes! thanks in advanced!
