Gnar's ult's AD scaling is absolutely pathetic

Gnar typically doesn't build much AD in the first place but this is a major reason as to why he doesn't.

It has a grand total of 20% bonus AD scaling. I had a full build with a total of 408 AD (298 bonus AD) and you wanna know how much my ult did?

400 (+60) physical damage. With 298 bonus AD. That's depressing.

Nerf the base damage to compensate for tank Gnar builds if you have to (they go BC + Frozen typically), but for god's sake give this furball some real AD scaling on his ult for off-meta builds or even possibly new meta builds it might create.

Careful. Top lane mains will downvote this to hell because “ranged champ op”

to put this in context, by adaptive compensation this is equivalent to a roughly 10% ap ratio. A "low" ap ratio is usually considered ~ 40%

gnar ult is incredibly strong. it could do zero absolutely zero damage and still be considered top tier. gnar ult happens to be one of leagues most game winning ults.(its right up there next to 5 man ori ult) if you have both gnar and orianna and yasuo to boot on your team you could easily win the game with one good wombo combo late. my guess is riot didn't want gnar ult to scale at all considering how powerful its base power is. i mean sure riot could give it something like 150% bonus ad ratio or something silly like that but then they'd have to increase its cooldown lower its base damage nerf its stun duration/knockback/area of effect or something.
