Kha'Zix vs Graves

Updated Jun 4, 2026

Overview

Use Kha'Zix's isolation damage and stealth to punish Graves when he overextends or is separated from his team.
Manage vision and fog control to avoid Graves's strong early invade and counter-jungle pressure while looking for isolated targets to pick off.

Jungle Plan

Path toward camps and river entrances where you can isolate Graves or his laners for picks before objectives.
Invade Graves only when you have vision control and lane priority to punish his early clear and tempo.
Use fog and stealth from (R) to set up picks around dragon or Rift Herald, avoiding grouped fights where Graves excels.

Danger windows

Be cautious during Graves's early invade windows when he can punish weak clears or isolated pathing.
Avoid isolated river fights without vision as Graves's ranged burst and dash can quickly turn fights.
Respect forced smite fights near objectives if Graves arrives with tempo and lane priority to contest.

Early game

Start with a clear path that enables quick access to river Scuttle and isolated camps to avoid early Graves invades.
Avoid fighting Graves early unless you have lane priority or vision support to prevent being collapsed on.
Prioritize securing the first Scuttle only if nearby lanes have priority and can support a fight.

Power spikes

At level 6, use (R) stealth to reposition for isolated picks before Graves can group or respond.
After your first damage item, aggressively invade and punish Graves's camps when lanes cannot collapse.
Respect Graves's early clear speed and (E) dash burst damage, avoiding fights when he has red buff or strong positioning.

Win conditions

Convert picks on isolated targets into dragon or Rift Herald control by using vision denial and fog.
Snowball leads by counter-jungling Graves when he shows on predictable gank paths and lanes have priority.
Use evolved (E) resets and (Q) isolation damage to dominate skirmishes and deny Graves scaling through tempo control.
