Cooldown nerf on his ultimate was the nail in the coffin. Combined with the fact that Deathfire was an overpowered must-buy at the time (which gave CDR), his extremely low late game cooldown ultimate was up all the time and you could just drop a nuclear bomb on the enemy team and have it ready for when a team fight happens.

It was really OP, but it made Gragas worth picking. Now that that's been taken away, there's no reason to pick him over other APs.
