Please stop nerfing Gnar

I am a Gnar Main. He was the first 6300 champ that I bought, I have lvl 7 Mastery with him, and he is one of my most successful champions in ranked because I figured out how his kit works and proceeded to get very good with the different aspects of how he works with his mini vs. mega form. He fell off of the Meta a while ago because he couldn't keep up with some of the other stronger top lainers. Recently a few patches ago, because of a very small buff (A little more base health and very little buff on his AD), Gnar because a top tier pick who is finally a very good pick again. Then with his domination in the LCS from players it showed just how strong Gnar is and out comes the Nerf Bat to take him back down. Please stop nerfing Gnar because of the kit that was given to him. The biggest part of Gnar in mini is his ability to trade with his Boomerang and Hyper then engage with the mega form and become a CC machine. The problem with nerfing Gnar is you take away his dueling power. So if he can't duel and then subsequently can't be the CC machine that he needs to be for the team, where does that leave him? Right back where he was at before the buff a few patches ago, being outclassed by most of the top laners that Riot themselves said that "he was supposed to bully." I feel like the incoming Gnar nerf is riot over reacting because somebody became very strong that was formerly a low power pick. Take this how you want it, if you think i am whining, or if you think I am justified with what I am saying.

Please keep nerfing Gnar. No you aren't good because you autoattack me and I can't retaliate seeing as you just hop away and you get a speed boost for autoattacking. No its not an outplay when I am permaslowed forever until I die from 100 damage autoattacks. Fuck gnar.

Nah, gnar should have nerfs to his passive again. He sustains entirely too well for how safe he is. Take away that passive heal by making it temporary hp that goes away when he goes back mini (can't drop him below 0 hp) so that damage actually sticks to the little fucker unless he commits to buying lifesteal.

His winrate is 47.5%.... Gnar has one of the lowest win ratio of the game & the nerf is harsh.. 4 seconds is just to much. it's gonna be way easier to kill him solo early game with a lower cd gap closer early on. Not to mention in those rotating game modes. he's pretty weak in them.

I think he is a tad strong right now, not broken or OP but he is a bit too safe and FM gives him too much. I'd say nerf his auto-passive to where it's a CD like Ekko's but not as long of a CD. (Possibly 3-4 seconds between procs.) Mallet just gives his mini-form so much harass with his w passive its ridiculous that he doesn't really need damage because of it.
