What makes Gnar dangerous
Mini Gnar pokes and kites from range with his boomerang and hops around. When his Rage bar fills he transforms into Mega Gnar — a beefy melee bruiser whose ultimate throws your whole team into a wall, stunning them for a wombo-combo. The danger is his transformation timing.
How to play against Gnar
- 1Track his Rage bar — engage on Mini Gnar (squishy, no reliable CC) and avoid all-ins when he's about to become Mega Gnar.
- 2Respect Mega Gnar's ult near walls — it stuns everyone thrown into terrain. Don't group near walls when his Rage is full.
- 3Mini Gnar can't be caught easily (he hops), but he's squishy — hard CC or a gap-closer punishes him before he transforms.
- 4Mega Gnar has no gap-closer. Once he's melee, kite him and don't fight in tight spaces where his ult lands.
Weaknesses to exploit
- ✓Mini Gnar is squishy with no reliable CC.
- ✓Transformation timing is predictable via the Rage bar.
- ✓Mega Gnar has no gap-closer — kiteable.
- ✓His wombo ult needs walls and grouped enemies.
Abilities & how to counter them
What each of Gnar's abilities does — and how to play around it.
P
Hiddet GeniGnar çatışmadayken Hiddet biriktirir. Hiddet en üst seviyeye ulaştığında, kullandığı bir sonraki yetenek onu Mega Gnar'a dönüştürerek daha dayanıklı hale getirir ve Gnar'ın yeni yetenekler kullanabilmesini sağlar.
Strong: the Rage bar transforms him into a beefy Mega Gnar with a wombo ult. Weak: track the bar — engage Mini form and avoid all-ins right before he transforms.
Q
Bumerang At / Kaya FırlatGnar'ın fırlattığı bumerang, isabet ettiği rakiplere hasar vererek onları yavaşlatır ve ardından Gnar'a geri döner. Gnar, bumerangı yakalarsa bekleme süresi azalır.Mega Gnar ise koca bir kaya fırlatır. Bu kaya isabet ettiği ilk hedefte durur ve yakınlarda bulunan her şeye hasar verip, onları yavaşlatır. Gnar kayayı yerden alırsa, bekleme süresi azalır.

Hiper / GöçertGnar saldırı yapıp, büyü kullandıkça heyecanı artar ve ilave hasar vererek, Hareket Hızı kazanır.Mega Gnar hiddetinden dolayı heyecanlanmaz, onun yerine arka ayakları üzerinde kalkıp, önünde bulunan alanı yumruklar ve yakınlardaki rakipleri sersemletir.
E
Hop / GümGnar bir noktaya zıplar ve kafasına indiği herhangi bir birimden sekerek ilerler. Mega Gnar sekemeyecek kadar büyük olduğundan daha yıkıcı bir güçle inerek, çevresine hasar verir.
R
GNAR!Mega Gnar etrafındaki her şeyi seçilen bir yöne fırlatarak hasar almalarına ve yavaşlamalarına yol açar. Bir duvara çarpan rakipler sersemler ve ilave hasar alır.
Strong: (Mega) throws your team into a wall for a group stun. Weak: it needs walls and grouped enemies — don't clump near terrain when his Rage is full.
Itemization
Gnar is a hybrid poke/tank. Armor helps vs his auto poke; the real key is timing — engage Mini form and respect Mega's ult near walls. Don't clump when his Rage is full.
