Yasuo vs Gragas

Updated Jun 4, 2026

Overview

Use (Q) and (E) to control space and pressure Gragas early, denying him a calm lane to scale.
This is a snowball matchup where Yasuo must leverage wave control and knockup setups to punish Gragas's short trade pattern.

Trading pattern

Stack (Q), dash through minions with (E), and commit on knockup threat to punish Gragas's cooldowns.
Respect (E) stun; avoid dashing recklessly into him to prevent getting locked down.
When (W) is down, step forward aggressively as Yasuo lacks dodge tools without it.

Danger windows

Respect (E) stun threat, especially from fog or close range, to avoid lethal trades.
Be cautious when (W) is down as Yasuo loses projectile blocking and becomes vulnerable.
Watch for (R) displacement during all-ins; avoid clustered positioning to reduce risk.

Early game

At level 2, use (Q) plus (E) mobility to start trades when minions allow safe dashes.
Avoid extended fights before level 6 as (E) stun and passive sustain favor short bursts.
Keep the wave on your side to maintain (E) mobility and punish Gragas when (W) or passive is down.

Power spikes

Level 2 unlocks (Q)+(E) combo; use it to force trades and pressure Gragas's passive.
Level 6 grants (R) for all-ins; track knockup availability to commit safely.
Gragas's level 6 (R) can disrupt engages; respect its cooldown and punish after it is used.

Win conditions

Snowball lane priority by using (Q) and (E) to control space and force Gragas into passive trades.
Deny Gragas's short trade windows by punishing missed (E) and cooldowns with knockups and (R).
Use verified knockup combos and (R) to secure kills or force Gragas out, enabling side pressure or roams.

Tip: For Yasuo vs Gragas, read overview, trading pattern, and danger windows first for a fast Top lane check.
