several other characters have moves that do 100 damage at level 1, for example, singed, taric, sion, and maokai (if you land the sapling and it blows up on them). Gragas' barrel probably was the easiest and longest range of them though. His early game was quite strong, but to just nerf it without any compensation is foolish. His late game just isn't good unless its backed up by a strong early game. If they are adamant about him having a weaker early game, they should really give him some late game compensation. I can't think off the top of my head exactly what they would do to make that happen... maybe slightly lower cooldowns on his moves at max level, or maybe give us back some of that drunken rage damage reduction we lost a few patches ago... just something other than constant nerfs :/
