Gnar's winrate

Cabruh·Nov 29, 2016·4 votes·617 views

having gnar as my second main, I have a lot of trouble recently doing well with gnar, especially since so many other top laners who can duel like poppy d so well against him. It's kind of annoying to see how badly he does despite all the tools he has in his kit. He is sitting at a 45% winrate right now, still going down. I really don't like the fact that his damage was nerfed so much in worlds, so his potential relies more on the team's communication than individual skill. It's really hard to play him in solo queue currently, so I just think he needs some buffs. He got hit really hard with the cooldown nerf on his e and w base damage.

W nerf was totally uncalled for honestly. Nerf the item & not the champ riot... One can still build MR against it after all but I hate how his E has the longest cooldown mobility ability in a game. 3 times as long as many mobility abilitys. some barely use any mana for them. :|

How am i supposed to do any damage late game? I need it to help my team to you know... & dont get me started how useless he is early game. They far over nerf it...

Illaoi is another champ that relies heavily on the team, and although it doesn't bother me, what does bother me is when I play a match with people that fail to cooperate. I'm pretty much useless with her mid, to late game It becomes: "Do I gamble on getting matched with cooperating team-mates, and use her, or just be safe and not use her?" Someday I'll pick my Gnar main up once more :/

He's kinda forced into the position of needing to rush Frozen Mallet, and honestly that's not very good for him in terms of build quality. If you ever need early resistances, it's extremely hard to account for it while still going for the mallet. Versus AP champs especially, I actually considered not using Frozen Mallet at all and got severely punished for it.

I try to set up my rage for a teamfight by tanking chickens who will fill it up quickly. My jungler pings me to get off his farm and kills them in one fell swoop. Cooperation? Even Rengar had a much easier time setting himself up in comparison...

He needs a rework like kalista and azir

When he's good he shoves to many Champs out of top lane

disagree wit this i think he is pretty healthy like if they just revert his e cd nerf then he will be fine cause then he will have an escape so that he can make it to level 9 and get an item

His escape should be on a high CD because it gives him a window to be engaged on

He already has a slow and a speedboost

I never knew if he just needs a buff or I'm just really bad with him.

I just think he takes a little too long to trade effectively into most matchups now. Also the cool down nerf to his e is starting to catch-up with him. Once Gnar has level 9 and an item he can get going, the trick with him is getting there without being in too large of a hole
