Viego vs Gragas

Updated Jun 6, 2026

Overview

Use Viego's medium early pressure and reset threat to contest river fights with lane help rather than blind invades.
Play for skirmishes where first takedowns can trigger resets and snowball objective control.
Avoid isolated fights before item power spikes and use vision to control dragon and Herald access.

Jungle Plan

Path towards lanes with priority to leverage (W) stun for ganks and skirmishes that can snowball resets.
Fight for first Scuttle only when nearby lanes can move first and avoid direct invades without vision.
Use objective vision and lane priority to force Gragas into defensive positions before contesting dragon or Herald.

Danger windows

Be wary of (E) stun engage from fog or flank angles especially before you have reset threat.
Avoid river fights when low health or before your (W) stun is available to prevent being caught by Gragas's burst.
Objective fights where Gragas can use (R) to separate your team or deny smite require careful vision and positioning.

Early game

Start with a clear that allows reaching level 3 on time to contest first Scuttle if lanes can assist.
Avoid early invades without lane priority or cooldown advantage against (E) engage and (R) displacement.
Prioritize river control and vision to set up skirmishes where (W) stun can initiate focused fights.

Power spikes

Level 6 (R) unlocks reset executes and repositioning; look for fights where one low target starts a reset chain.
First fighter item enhances sustained dueling and reset potential; fight around lanes that can follow up.
Respect Gragas's level 6 (R) displacement which can interrupt engages and force you to reposition or disengage.

Win conditions

Convert skirmish resets into dragon and Rift Herald control by coordinating with lanes that have priority.
Use (E) camouflage and (W) stun to create unpredictable gank angles and force Gragas into defensive play.
Deny Gragas free farm and invade opportunities by tracking his pathing and counter-ganking with lane assistance.
