he was actually buffed, but I agree, I think (and have experienced) that he was always a pretty strong champ. People have a tendency to shy away from champs that are A) not easy and B) not tournament endorsed.

Hopefully he is not overnerfed while he has his moment in the spotlight. Hes a great champ but hes not the unstoppable force hes currently being QQ'd about as. I've noticed hes largely picked in tournaments AFTER the enemy team has chosen their AP, as an 'ah yes, Gragas can win this lane' response. Hes showing off so incredibly well right now because he isn't countered by any of the common fallback tournament APs. When a team smartens up and plays one of his counters people will see that a gragas can indeed be shut out.

Still, I hope he doesn't disappear off the competetive scene again, because I find him a joy to watch. Whether its ganks or team fights Gragas brings some crazy we usually dont see in the tournaments
