In the US President TrumpDonald Trump) took office, American companies have adjusted their policies to adapt to the new political trend; for example, Meta canceled its diversity, equality and inclusion (DEI) program and disbanded its fact-checking team at the beginning of this year. Interestingly, this wave of "de-political correctness" seems to have also reached League of Legend, with the famous hero Gragas, the "barrel", recently quietly quitting drinking.
The game director of Riot Games, the parent company of "League of Legends", recently confirmed on the social platform BlueSky that the name of Gragus's W skill has been changed from the original "Drunken Rage" to "Raucous Rage" to comply with the age rating standards of various regions. Although the word "drunk" in the skill name has been removed, he emphasized: "Don't worry, Gulags still likes his beer, just a little more low-key now."
For anyone wondering – We've made some updates to Gragas' ability names to remove "Drunken" in order to stay compliant with age ratings across various regions. Feel free to pour one out for him, but don't worry, he still enjoys his brews even if he's being very slightly more discreet about it

This change sparked heated discussions among players, with some netizens jokingly saying, "Even Gulags can't drink alcohol, this must be Trump's fault!" Others joked, "Trump doesn't smoke or drink, so Gulags has to follow suit."
It is reported that one of Trump's most famous life habits is that he never smokes or drinks in his life. This habit was mainly influenced by his brother Fred Trump Jr. Fred died young at the age of 42 due to long-term alcoholism. This had a great impact on Trump, and he made up his mind when he was young to stay away from tobacco and alcohol for the rest of his life. Not only does he set strict standards for himself, he has also publicly advised his son Barron Trump to "get straight A's, not take drugs, not drink, not smoke, and not get tattoos"; related footage is still circulating on the Internet.
It is reported that Gragas is one of the most personal heroes in League of Legends. He is a barrel king of great stature and outspoken character who has spent his life in pursuit of the legendary perfect spirit. He comes from the cold land of Freljord. Unlike ordinary warriors, he does not make a name for himself by weapons or magic, but by his winemaking skills and endless drinking capacity.
It is said that in order to find inspiration for brewing wine, he crossed the ice field, went deep into the volcano, and even drank with the frost monster. Whenever Gulags appeared on the battlefield, he always brought a huge barrel of wine, drank while fighting, and his heroic laughter shook the earth. His drunken boxing was incredibly powerful, with each move mixing alcohol and destructive power, making it difficult for the enemy to resist. For Gulags, the most important thing in life is not winning or losing, but drinking to your heart's content!
