Statistical Matchup Analysis

With 3.3% popularity, Gragas constantly encounters meta-dominant Ornn (4.1%, 18th place out of 62 Top champions). Understanding how to play against this popular champion becomes essential for consistent Gragas performance in the current patch. Every edge matters: In this tough matchup, the proven Electrocute + Sudden Impact combination (67.1% win rate) plus optimal itemization Rod of Ages, Cosmic Drive, Zhonya's Hourglass, and Ionian Boots of Lucidity boosts your chances from 47.5% to 74.4% - potentially game-changing.

Farm your way back: Gragas's superior farming (6.88 vs 6.18/min, 25th among Top) offers a comeback path. Focus on safe CSing and capitalize on your 0.70 CS/min natural advantage. Damage doesn't equal wins: Gragas outputs more damage (759 vs 702/min, 2nd place) but still loses the matchup. The issue likely lies in survivability, mobility, or damage timing rather than raw output. Complete dominance by Ornn: leads in both matchup win rate (52.5%) and KDA (2.50 vs 2.20, 4th vs 7th place). Gragas players need exceptional preparation to overcome this counter-pick.

How to Beat Ornn as Gragas (Top)

Difficult matchup requiring deep understanding of game mechanics and flawless execution. Patience and proper macro play are the keys to victory in this confrontation.

The magic damage that Gragas deals remains relevant in the late game. Look for opportunities to initiate or counter-initiate. Ornn has mixed damage, be careful as it may be harder to defend if the opponent gets ahead or plays aggressively.

An important advantage of Gragas is higher farming statistics (ranked 25th among role champions) (versus 48th for Ornn), which provides a stable gold advantage in extended games and allows faster access to key items. Meanwhile, their higher KDA (2.5 versus 2.2) suggests they participate more effectively in team fights.

Key aspects of the Gragas Top versus Ornn Top matchup

In this difficult confrontation, it is critically important for the Gragas player to avoid attempts to force trades and all-ins with the Ornn player, as the matchup requires a patient and calculated approach. Extended trades without clear tactical advantage often lead to unfavorable consequences, and ignoring opportunities to receive team support can be a fatal mistake for game progression.

Gragas tips:

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

Playing Against Ornn

  • Try to stay away from walls. Ornn is much less strong if he cannot stun you.
  • Attack Ornn to keep him from creating items in lane.
