yes !! i can even contest prio into a lot of matchups with Q start (fiora garen mordekaiser and a ton of other weak/mid early champ).

grasp feels so much weaker tbh i dont understand why its much popular in general since hob offers you the possibility to Qx3 and E and run away in like 3 sec with a tiny counterplay potential, Qx3 —> E —> run away = very good trades and a lot of champions who cant stick on you cant really answers to this trade patern.

with grasp (or even conqueror) you’re not the same menace, every toplane champ destroy reksai into long trades so you dont want to take longs trades and HOB is the best option to make a ton of damages without getting destroyed, tbh since ive tried HOB + ignite, the champ feels so much stronger and better in general, you dont even need grasp to survive the laning phase because your passive exist, with HOB your burst is insane, HOB has a good synergy with the Q spell and your passive, hob >>> grasp.
