Counterplay to Graves?

Every time when i see Graves jungle i know that if he gets only 1 kill that game is over. He is insanely tanky, has an assassins burst, has good sustain, mobility + has that smoke crap that works basically the same as quin blind except she is not tanky. He is more OP than Jax and Irelia COMBINED. How on earth to counter him?

his Q is delayed. his range is 420 the problem isn't his burst but the fact that melees take more damage when they go into him. there is a reason that graves isn't played bot.

you should pick a ranged top laner, hell even cait top will be fine. But this is just the range vs melee thing in league.

From what you said in the comments you are looking for a jungler that can go 1v1 with him ? There are too many to list. Volibear and Kha Zix are both strong right now and both will do well against Graves.

first define countering him

second, if you don't mention who you play when you want to counter something what does that say about you exactly. To defeat the enemy first know yourself and all that stuff

to go 1v1? take kindred or nida and laugh in his face.

this may not work on a pro level but seems good to me.

don't fight him when he has his true grit passive stacked up. it gives him TONS of armor and magic resist. so if he doesn't have it stacked, fight him and try to dodge his abilities but as soon as the fight lasts for more than however many seconds and he gets two or more stacks think about backing off.

Once maxed, Graves can get a total of 120 armor and magic resist as a BONUS, meaning he still has the 50-70 base defenses that he'd have.
