Thornmail Gragas Build

General

1. You rush Thornmail.
2. You go full Armor.
3. Hit or miss. Works only if an enemy team is full of physical damage dealers (preferably auto-attackers).
4. If an enemy team is full of mages/AP damage, play regular tank build instead.

General

1. How is this Thornmail build for Gragas different to regular tank builds? Item order, Armor stacking and countering enemy physical damage dealers!
2. This build is aimed to counter AD comps. Since you don't know the enemy team, you need to adapt in game. It is hit or miss. If they are heavy AP - just play regular tank.
3. Late game, you can consider selling boots for 6th item - for even more sweet Thornmail damage!
4. Be careful to not waste Aftershock. Try timing it and keeping it for going in.

Champion

1. Damage reduction from Drunken Rage (W) indirectly increases Thornmail's damage as it increases your effective HP and you can take more hits.

Champion

1. You can Body Slam (E), then Flash to do cool combo and catch unsuspecting enemies!
2. You can Body Slam (E), then Flash forward, backward or even sideways, and you will still hit the enemy at the end of animation.

Riot

1. The damage reduction from Drunken Rage is applied when you start drinking, try to use it when you see damage coming your way.
2. Try to knock enemies back into your towers with Explosive Cask.
3. Try to combo Body Slam with Explosive Cask to set up kills for your team.
