greater mark of hybrid penetration These help deal bonus damage, however they are quite expensive so you can replace them with armor pen, attack damage or magic pen.


I normally use 21/9/0 because it gives me higher damage early on allowing for more succesful ganks, however
Gragas is very flexible (despite his weight) and can use many different mastery pages including 9/21/0 and 0/21/9


















First Clear
You want to start at blue buff as that gives you increased mana regen and also means you have red for longer when ganking.
After blue either go to wraiths or wolves and clear that, so by the time you reach red buff your smite should be up.
After Second Buff Camp
Now you should look at the map and see if there are any enemies overextended or winning against your team, if there are then you should try to gank them.
If not then go back to farming your jungle until you reach around 900 gold or get low, then head back to get your first items. (normally


Notes
After the rework his first clear is pretty weak, however his clear gets much better after a few items and levels.
Continue looking for ganks and farming your jungle. Remember to gets wards around dragon when the enemy jungler hits 6 as some junglers such as
Nasus and
Shaco can solo with their ultimates or with the help of their bot lane. When your blue buff respawns your mid may ask for it, however if they are losing their lane then don't let them have it as they will probably just die to the enemy midlane and give them your blue. It will probably be better for you to take it and try to gank mid for them.


Late game is normally when you have 4-5 items of your build and team fights are occurring. At this point vision around Dragon and Baron is important. when teamfights happen your job is mainly to setup a initiation with
Explosive Cask and to peel for your carry with
Body Slam and
Barrel Roll.



When ganking try to come behind the enemy laner so they have to go through you, then use
Barrel Roll between them and their escape route. Try to wait as long as possible to explode it, increasing the damage and slow. Follow up with your
Body Slam stunning them. if they are still alive then if you have it use
Explosive Cask in front of them, knocking them towards you.
Remember if you have red buff or
Iceborn Gauntlet try to hit them with autos between abilities to apply more slows.



Remember if you have red buff or

I would recommend picking
Gragas when top and mid are squishy and deal AD damage. (
Yasuo and
Tryndamere) This is also a good combo as
Explosive Cask knocks the enemies airborne for Yasuo's
Last Breath. And when the enemy has a lot of peels like
Janna and
Alistar where someone like
Malphite might not find it that easy to engage. Gragas also isnt that vulnerable to counter jungling as he can duel pretty well and has a escape, compared to someone like
Nautilus.









Thank you for reading through this guide, I hope you have enjoyed it and might see the merits of jungle
Gragas. This is my first attempt at a guide so please instead of downvoting straight away instead leave a comment telling me what you don't like, and I will try to improve it. I will be adding chapters and updating the guide as I go, including ganking routes and an item guide.
