Glenn Silver says “Don't step behind him, only commit if his mega gnar is far from proccing. go for doran's shield + second wind.”

TheMild1 says “Very annoying ranged matchup. Slow to kite you, passive for more movement speed. Look to kill him in his mini form if possible. Good Gnar players won't give you the chance to if they save their jump”

DemicleasTTV says “Q MAX A good gnar will make u eat his poop but VERY EASY if he is bad. HE IS SUPPOSED to WIN but often they will fail, ESPECIALLY IN LOWER ELO. MEGA GNAR < SMALL GNAR. Mega is easy to abuse so its actually better to play agressive when he is big, Q IS VERY EASY TO LAND. If he is low and waste his e RUN HIM DOWN”

Saneryus says “Gnar, similar to akali, is very threatening in lane if you misposition even a little bit. This is because he also has very good gap closure because of both his ranged and enraged E. If he E's on top of you in ranged form, he gets another instance of his E to basically prevent you from running away from him in lane. Just pay attention to your positioning verses gnar and be prepared for his enraged dive. The second that he becomes enraged and you see him jump on you, IMMEDIATELY ULT. DO NOT WAIT for him to enrage engage and stun you as he has around a 3 second long stun lock combo with his W and R and that is enough time to take away 75% or higher of your hp. I have not tested gunblade for this M.U yet. Once tested, I will update whether to go gunblade or nashors. Fow now, nashors default TP/Exhaust. You need the TP to get back to lane to soak enough for level 6. DShield Fleet Poke Or Ultra-Giga-Bichboi (if you think you'll be camped). Tabi rush if jungler is AD and you think you'll be camped. ”
PokeRoyal2007 says “Level 1 he will try to poke you, just start AA him. He can´t play the lane.”

ObiW says “The golden rule: Respect the Rage Bar. Never fight him when his bar is nearly full or when he is Mega Gnar—he becomes too tanky and has tons of CC. Your kill window opens right after he transforms back into Mini Gnar; he gets a 'Tired' debuff for 15 seconds and cannot gain Rage. Use this window to all-in him while he is squishy. Rush Plated Steelcaps to survive Mini Gnar's poke and kiting.”
TENSION019 says “Gnar is a tricky opponent, he can poke you from range, jump away when things get rough, and still become tanky later on. Focus on farming and don’t take unnecessary trades. When he’s in Mega Gnar form, he’ll try to go all-in with melee trades. Be patient. Right before Mega Gnar expires, look for your opportunity to Ult him, when he turns into Mini Gnar, he takes extra damage and becomes much squishier. Watch out for his long-range CC combos. If the enemy jungler shows up during his transformation, you can be taken down very easily.”

zwartebliksem says “Flash + Teleport (ignite if confident) Gnar has 2 versions, mini and mega Gnar. His resource bar is rage, which he gains when attacking or being attacked. Once his rage bar is full, he will temporarily transform into mega Gnar. When facing mini Gnar, he will try to poke and space you. If you go in, he will jump out with his E. The reason why this matchup is considered a minor thread, is because Kled can stick onto Gnar when he jumps out, even cancelling his jump. You have to land your Q + E combo for a good trade, then trade until you cannot reach him anymore. After this, he will run you down. So try to play around the bushes and try to get early boots. Mega Gnar has a slightly different playstyle, he will look for a short trade with heavy cc. His W will stun you and his Q will deal a lot of damage. After 6, he can chain his cc using his ultimate. If you can avoid his W stun or buffer it with your ultimate, you can pretty much run Mega Gnar down as well.”
