Is graves good champ to climb with ? (Out of gold)

Im currently g4 and picked graves recently, im almost 50 games deep. Hovering around 50% wr.

I grasped how champion itself works by now but i feel like hes only works when team knows what are they doing.

Its feels like even when im ahead i can get shutdown pretty easily without teams help.

Should i pick something else to play and pick him later on ?
