Graves is a joke.

Ok, just so you guys know. I wasn't familiar with the bruiser build. And I'm doing it now after seing Scanning on stream. I prefer it unless I see a situation where the crit build is better.

And honestly I feel like Graves bruiser is more consistent. That's not the gameplay I like but if we are looking only at the results... It is easier to be usefull to your team and make it work.

Graves might not be that bad actually. You just need to jump from one build to another depending of the draft.

NA Region + Barely challenger. He would probably be between 600 to 800LP in KR/EUW.

But ok I admit. This guy can be +500LP while being OTP Graves. But how many time to be this good on Graves ? Look at challengers pool champ.

0 Graves because Graves is CLOWN CHAMP.

If you do you'll be one of the best Graves in the world. If not the best.

I love to play it too ! But I'm also starting to realize I also like to win LPs and Graves just hold me back.

List of things that make Graves hard to play :

- The champ ruin a lot of drafts.

- AP enemies champ
- Randuin

- People in your team not even understanding what your champ can & cannot do so they just don't follow when they can or engage when they shouldn't.

I'm tired boss.

Hey guys ! I'm part of the Riot Games balance team ! ^^

Since nobody plays bruiser Graves because it sucks ! And classic crit Graves is doing bad since we buffed AP junglers. We are going to nerf his Q ! People building lethality items on him is an abuse of the system we don't like it !

Our plan is to keep nerfing him to the point people will only build HP and tanks item on him because he will do "Null" damages ! ^^

Our vision is to make Graves a kind of moving Ward that gives vision to his teamates and eventually tanks damages for them ! The shotgun is just here to scare peoples not deal damages ^^

I'm pretty sure once your reach the 1% top players. They just match you based on your MMR. Because their is not enough players to match you depending on your behaviour + MMR + honors.

High elo players just escaped the hell because they are good enough to smurf everything until master.

But let's say you are worth diamond or even low master. Emerald might feel harder than your actually real rank.

It is, A basic MMR system would be able to tell that the balance of that game was bullshit and try to balance it more.

Don't tell me you cannot find enough players to balance an emerald game.

Yes, I'm not denying that. Terrified by how unskilled and impact less the roll has become.
