Can Gnar's W Scale off of AD Please?

It is not fair for a champion to build full tank and take half your fucking health when he hits you a 3rd time with w.

You know is scales off both AP and enemies health currently right? So if we made it AD and health it would be even stronger?

He's saying AD instead of health.

We'd need to see that before we assume it.

No, I think it's pretty implicit in what he said in the OP, if you can make basic connections in logic.

i'm saying 0-5% health unless he builds AD with it

Gnar's in a good spot right now, honestly. He's not impossible to win lane against unless you pick someone he destroys (ergo Shyvana, Renekton, Mordekaiser, Nasus, most immobile bruisers [Renekton slightly less of a counter]). Just pick someone who can go in on him when he's low in rage, Riven, Irelia, Quinn, and Vayne all do well against him.

If they nerfed his W, it would force him to rely on the tankiness aspect of his kit, which doesn't make much sense in Mini form. Aka W is where all of his Mini viability comes from. Without that large chunk of damage, he would be absolutely useless unless he was in Mega form, which is never a good situation balance-wise when he's Mini for 3/4th of the time.

Well, I still think his w is sh*t when you compare him to someone like Renekton who only has magic damage on his ULTI, and this guy get's it for free on a passive %Hp magic damage is really, really strong. I think a good way is to make it deal a flat amount that scales with a little bonus AD instead, which would open him up to counter-building but at the same time not axe him

"Just never pick a fighter without an instantaneous dash and multiple second stun. Hard counters are good design particularly in a game with an asynchronous pick phase."

The sad part is that the balance team actually agrees with you hence top lane being full of ranged faceroll.
