Kha'Zix vs Gragas

Updated Jun 4, 2026

Overview

Kha'Zix thrives by isolating targets and controlling fog for picks around jungle and river entrances.
Manage fights to avoid grouped enemy setups that nullify your isolation damage and pick potential.
This is a snowball matchup where Kha'Zix must leverage early isolation to deny Gragas's objective control and scaling.

Jungle Plan

Prioritize pathing through jungle entrances and river fog to catch Gragas isolated before objectives.
Invade when you have vision support and (E) is on cooldown to punish his weaker escape.
Use objective setups to isolate Gragas from his team, then secure dragon or Rift Herald with your superior single-target damage.

Danger windows

Be cautious contesting Scuttle or invading when (E) and (R) are up, as he can disengage or isolate you.
Avoid low-health clears near river entrances where Gragas can flank with (E) stun and (R) displacement.
Respect early objective setups where Gragas can disrupt your team with (R), especially if your lanes lack priority to counter-gank.

Early game

Start with a path that targets camps near lanes with weak lane priority to set up early isolated picks.
Fight for first Scuttle only if your nearby lanes can move first and create isolation opportunities.
Avoid early fights without vision control, as (E) and (R) can punish overextensions and collapse quickly.

Power spikes

At level 6, use (R) stealth to reposition for picks before dragon or Herald fights; avoid grouped enemy formations.
After your first damage item, increase invade pressure to punish Gragas's slower clears and weaker dueling without (E).
Respect Gragas's level 6 (R) displacement and (E) stun windows by avoiding isolated river fights when these are available.

Win conditions

Convert isolated picks secured with (R) stealth into uncontested dragon or Rift Herald control.
Use vision control to track Gragas's pathing and counter-invade when his (E) and (R) are on cooldown.
Snowball by denying Gragas free farm and forcing him into grouped fights where your isolation damage is minimized.
