    Gragas Tips and Tricks

    Gragas is strong in the early game and can dominate the lane. Try to trade frequently whenever the enemy comes forward to last-hit. When using your Ultimate (R), aim to throw it just behind the enemy to ensure they are knocked forward; placing it directly on top of them could send them in the wrong direction. Positioning yourself off to the side while your team groups up allows you to flank the enemy and knock them into your teammates.
