Gragas has a 46% win rate right now - how about we buff his AP ratios?

His rework aimed to make him somewhat of an AP bruiser champion and he even was played that way for a while because of his insane Q waveclear before it got nerfed, but after that he was almost exclusively built as a tank except for the short period of time when Runic Echoes was overpowered. He lost that AP bruiser-y feel to him and is now just another generic tank which is a shame.

So since he seems to be underperforming right now anyway, how about we buff his ratios instead of something else in his kit? Specifically his W ratio seems somewhat underwhelming, it's only 30% while his E and Q have 60% respectively. This might encourage people to play him AP again to bring back some of his intended identity on top of just giving him a way to come back into the Meta.

What he needs is increased ultimate damage, the delay completely killed his competitive viability.

Still using him and still doing well with him, would just be nice for a little more reward.

The delay kind of had to get added though. There was genuinely no counter play to the E-Flash-R combo.

gragas isnt underpowered its just that there are champions that need nerfs in his roles that are being picked more often.

or we could buff tank items health and stats so the bruiser side works better for everyone. and maybe touch up juggarnauts kits so they dont return to their release state bs

I can confirm him being extra weak. It certainly doesn't feel fair to have a winrate of 51% when I perform the best Gragas plays ever and get the best stats. His winning potential is just too low.
