Just bought Graves in Wild Rift and need a few pointers? Read on for our guide on this champion and you'll be a master of the jungle in no time.
Runes
Footwork is an important keystone that greatly improves Graves' ability to kite the other team. It also gives you a bit of added sustain.
The Hunter runes let you scale off of your kills by boosting your stats after a successful gank. Brutal, in red, is also a good choice as it makes you even stronger during the early game.

Tips and Tricks
- Don't be afraid to use your ultimate as a last resort if you need to escape from a sticky situation, as the recoil from Collateral Damage can be used to propel you away from a gank if you're desperate.
- Graves' auto-attack pushes back Neutral creatures, giving him a way to reliably kite jungle mobs and avoid taking unnecessary damage.
