· A powerful build, researched primarily on the North American server in Teamfight Tactics Set 17, has emerged.
· It's the 'Coolant Graves' build, characterized by its strong performance in the late game.
· This build only starts showing its true potential after the 5th turn and is a strategy worth considering when you have the flexibility.

· Current value decks are divided into three versions depending on whether you choose Lulu, Rammus, or Tahm Kench as the main tank.
· This video primarily focuses on the build that utilizes Tahm Kench as the main tank.

· Research on the Explorer augment is active, and we introduce a strategy to achieve the 3 Beastmoon synergy through it.
· The Explorer augment is advantageous for gold income, as placing a champion costing 33 gold allows you to obtain 27 gold and a Radiant Item Transmuter, along with Morgana.
· You gain 8 max HP from the first Recraft, positively impacting the build.

· We aimed to secure gold and the 3 Elderwood synergy by achieving a 5-game losing streak early on, but we experienced an unexpected loss when Briar, purchased early, disappeared due to a bug.
· This prevented us from executing our "gold farming" strategy effectively.

· Despite the difficult situation, we continued the game by taking minimal damage and prepared for a comeback by acquiring a large number of items from the second Recraft.
· The Explorer augment activated, Graves appeared, and we began to seriously plan the Coolant Graves build.

· Early game Graves is still in the "damage dealer" frame, and a tanky Graves is just about average.
· The Coolant synergy is close to average until Stage 3 (Business), but it starts to become powerful once the Void multiplier kicks in.
· We aim for the 5-unit and Coolant synergies with the final augment to complete the build.

· We miraculously survived with 1 HP and succeeded in stacking 600 stacks.
· Graves is completed through the "Absolute Zero" item and the Coolant Plus synergy.

· The completed Coolant Graves boasts powerful damage output, but we face a crisis due to an unexpected enemy attack.
· We experienced a nail-biting moment where we almost lost, even with Xayah 1-star and Guinsoo's Rageblade dealing 20,000 damage.

· Graves at Stage 3 is not even pulling his weight, even with Radiant items.
· His true power is unleashed when the 'Void Multiplier' synergy is activated.
· The Void Multiplier reduces max mana when skills are used, and when combined with the Radiant Spear of Shojin, it allows for two skill casts without auto-attacking.

· After Turn 7, Graves at Level 8 is completed, and when the explosion radius is enhanced, his skills start to detonate significantly.
· Graves transforms into a monster that performs beyond expectations.

· With Graves reaching 2-star, his damage output noticeably increases.
· At Level 9, he shows even more power through the "Empathic Burst" synergy.

· Graves finally reaches 15K damage, showcasing his true monstrous form.
· He boasts overwhelming performance, dealing at least 10K damage.
· With the "Explosion Radius Plus" augment, his skill range expands significantly.

· The opponent is a Level 10, 5-cost, 6-unit super value deck, but we win due to Graves' overwhelming damage difference.
· We secure victory by dealing more than double the damage of the enemy Graves.

· Level 7 Graves is completed, and with the "Explosion Radius Plus" augment, the deck's power is maximized.
· We reach Level 10 and further enhance the deck's power.
