Compared to other junglers, Graves struggles to deal damage in the earlier stages of the game. To lend him a hand, we’ve boosted his early-game combat ability, which will improve his jungle clear speed and survivability in fights.

Graves is getting some tweaks so he can pop off harder with the new Infinity Edge!
New Destiny
- Pellet critical strike bonus damage from Infinity Edge (Ruin) increased from 10% to 20%.
- Editor's Note: Normally the champion's crit modifier is involved, but since the rate has stayed consistent with the new item, we will use a simpler notation while the item is enabled.
End of the Line
- Base damage increased from 45/65/85/105 to 55/75/95/115.
Graves hasn’t been measuring up against other Junglers, especially when he falls behind in items. We’re tweaking some numbers around so he can keep up.
Stats
- Base attack damage increased from 64 to 66.
- Base health increased from 570 to 630.
We’re giving Grave’s damage a boost so his foes should be a little more careful when facing him or it might just be the end of the line for them.

Collateral Damage

Last patch we made adjustments to crit across the board and also adjusted Grave’s base critical strike damage. In doing this, it ended up weakening Graves way more than we expected, even with the new items. So we’re reverting the changes we made last patch to adjust this.
New Destiny
- Critical strike bonus pellet damage increased from 20% to 30%.
Stats
- Base movement speed increased from 340 to 350.
New Destiny
- Critical strike bonus pellet damage reduced from 30% to 20%.
Recent changes have led to Graves rapidly rising in power in the jungle. But we’d like to help out lane Graves some, so we’re shifting some of his power around in ways that should bring the roles closer together.

Graves is currently one of the most dominant junglers due to his fast clear speed and ability to transition into a late game monster. We’re toning down his ability to clear camps in order to slow down just how fast he can reach that terrifying late game state.
End of the Line
- Damage against monsters reduced from 150% to 120%.
Graves has been struggling to make a meaningful impact in the Jungle, so we’re amping up his ability to clear camps and take out large monsters.
End of the Line
- Damage against monsters increased from 100% to 150%.
Graves has still continued to be a popular and powerful pick. We’re reducing the power of critical strike builds in particular, since they are currently dominating the build paths of this outlaw.
New Destiny
- Base critical strike damage multiplier reduced from 140% to 130%.
Quickdraw
- Cooldown increased from 15/14/13/12 seconds to 16/15/14/13.
Graves has spiked in both power and popularity over the last few patches as the metagame has become extremely favorable for him. We’re taking away some of the defenses he gets for free in order to limit how easy it is for Graves to farm up a few items and carry without fear of dying.
Stats
- Base health reduced from 610 to 570.
- Armor growth reduced from 4.3 to 3.9.
- Base mana regeneration reduced from 15 to 12.
Graves is benefitting too much from recent item changes and requires a small tap down to adjust for his newfound arsenal.
Stats
- Attack damage growth reduced from 4.5 to 3.6.
Graves isn’t under-performing in terms of win rate, but a lot of his power lies in his early base stats which we believe makes him less satisfying to play. We’re shifting around some of his power to give him more oomph on the more explosive parts of his kit so that good play around his abilities is better rewarded. We also hope to give him better build options by dramatically increasing the value that AD and armor pen have for his burst spell, (1) End of the Line.

Graves added to Wild Rift
It didn’t take much for jungle Graves to clear camps very quickly, and take no damage while he’s at it. We are tuning him down so he doesn’t always end up on top.
