Personally, I think Grumpjaw is mostly used as a niche hero. He can counter certain heroes very well, but get's destroyed by Burty late game heroes. If you like early game heroes, then you should buy Grumpjaw. However, as you bought Idris, which is a late game jungler, you might want to buy a late game hero. Assuming that you main jungle, you can choose from the late game jungle heroes, like Kestrel, Krul, Baptiste, Glaive, Skye, Taka(if you still don't have him). I personally, I play Jungle Celeste and she can be very effective so you might consider her as well. :)

Yes current meta is catching up grumpjaw and baptiste but both of them require high practice and skills as well as timing , you should be aware of when to use your abilities and when not. Grumpjaw is early game and baptiste is late game, but both of them counters several heroes which are current meta , for instance baptiste can counter any gap closing hero like alpha , ozo, etc

I will recommend gwen, joule , rona(most op hero),fortress, lance, alpha and Celeste.
I will be your worst nightmare
Main heroes- Glaive(wp), Petal(dead, this hero is dead for me), cp adagio, vox, gwen, lance(not bad), koshka, alpha and sometimes the current meta.

I won't get into all the debates about what's been said, as I disagree with most of it but don't have the energy to stast a debate. Telling you who to buy is difficult without knowing who you don't have. So I instead I will say this Grumpjaw is a VERY solid hero so worth the purchase.
