How to play it

✓

Dodge his Q

His Q is his main early chunk: sidestep it and refuse to trade into it while he's ahead.

✓

Wait for the gank

You have almost no solo kill pressure early: call your jungler and Wither (W) him so the gank sticks.

✓

Just farm and scale

He's strong in the early game, so don't duel him: stack Q safely and you outscale him hard.

✕

Never try to duel Graves straight up in the early game: that's exactly when he's strongest, so farm and wait instead.
