Quick question for any Gragas players out there

Xenohaz·9/7/2014, 7:19:56 PM·1 votes·348 views

So, I recently picked up Gragas, and while he's fun as hell to play, I haven't been doing all that great in terms of winning lane or K/D/A with him. Anyone have any advice? I'm not that sure what to build, so I've just been following the recommended items like item 3027 . I've been playing him top lane, is that right? I don't see Gragas very often, so I don't really know where exactly he should go. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

EDIT: I forgot to mention masteries and runes. I've been using my mage masteries and runes, is that right?

Sheen -> RoA or Lich Bane -> RoA is common. Probuilds is a good place to go for build guidance as well http://www.probuilds.net/champions/Gragas . I would look at a few builds to get a sense of how Gragas is built, depending on match ups, or just in general, etc.

I recommend searching youtube for pro gameplay of Gragas for lane mechanics/combos etc. It'll be easier than me trying to explain it here.

here's one from Scarra, back when Gragas was just changed, the build and skill order is a bit off from what most pros use now, but it should give you a good idea on lane mechanics:

you probably want to search for other videos from top lane mains (and also from more recent patches), but Scarra's a great Gragas player and coach, so he has a lot of good advice.
