he is seriously one of the best cc tanks in the game, and every time i pick him i get crap from my team. until i go 4/0 in 15 mins or something like that. then they expect me to forget all the hate and rage they shot at me and carry them
BlackRaven16 votesbecause hes a canceer that we didnt want top. we were having trouble with ryze then they release gnar. i have no idea what riot wants from melees. they continue to fuck us over and overcrowd our lane with all this ranged bullshit leaving us beyond useless during laning.

Do you even Freelo Witch?
How do you think Lissandra trapped Gnar for X years in true ice? (Lissandra is a very old witch)
Fed by Snu Snu1 votesAnd that's still less than Gnar, but that's what I get for not noticing who the fuck posted about Lissandra.
Baited.

Or play him. I have laned against many a Gnar, and most of them don't engage correctly. They will go mega without the leap engage, or just flat out try to fight someone as mini Gnar (who has the worst defenses in the game btw). Just give it some time, then people will appreciate him more.

you can fight 1v1 as mini gnar, but you have to wait until you get some tankiness to do so, and land your Q a lot, as that will get you more procs with your w.
BlackRaven5 votesFuck all ranged top laners and fuck whoever plays them. I'd rather lose than sacrifice my dignity for some lp. Fucking tools
KzooCrasher1 votesTop lane is not for the weak like you then
Salidfingers4 votesI've never lost top to a gnar. Mini gnar deny CS, Mega Gnar back off for a few seconds.
Teridax684 votesPeople didn't like 
at first because they had trouble dealing with his transformation, which is the key part of his kit, and didn't like that they couldn't always get the form they wanted, so for a very long time he's been thought of as weak. Even now, after a few buffs and once people started getting more familiar with his kit, that stigma still carries. On the flipside, Gnar's been lumped together with a lot of ranged champions that are currently dominating top lane (
in particular), and a few players who have faced him don't like him because he's a lane bully with strong kiting power.
I agree with you that Gnar is extremely powerful, and I think it's possible to deal with him even as a melee champion when he's in ranged form (he's super-vulnerable when catching his boomerang while poking, and moving him out of the return range will cripple his harass). He's in pretty good shape, even if not everyone's caught up with him yet.
Lt Cuddles4 votesHe is basically 
if she were a bruiser, CC + burst + good tank stats = a rather redundant enemy top laner. The issue is lower elos play like ass, and so they apply this ass-tier play style to this champion: trying to rush 
first, then getting stomped in lane because of their inability to understand how to patiently take their lane opponent apart, they'd rather just push you to tower and over extend or dive or "outplay" themselves to death...Which is why people hate having on their team, they act like raid bosses at every phase of the game, then feed after realizing Mega- isn't as tanky and as bursty as they thought, yet they repeat this mistake over and over and over...
Kaisha3 votesThe league community is a toxic cess pool.
Killer X 123 votesHe isn't fun.
Grand Eleven2 votesMeh, I think it's a simple loss of control people don't like. You can't control mega gnar at all ... and that's dissatisfying IMO.
Matthevv2 votesGnar will never be competitively viable at the top level of play unless he is just straight up OP at the time. His kit is extremely unreliable which just makes him a bad choice. You can get lucky and transform at all the right times or get unlucky and transform at all the wrong times.
Pro players don't want to leave things to lady luck.

it's not luck. its called timed aggression.
KzooCrasher2 votesHe's already being played in professional tournaments so jokes on you I guess. (And his mega form isn't luck based at all....)

Right, there is no possible way gnar could be overtuned right now and thus viable.
KzooCrasher1 votesWell he is over tuned that is why he is getting nerfed next patch.
DrNova2 votesI love Gnar actually, I think I've figured him out extremely well. I can mid and ADC with him most lanes as well (There are a few matchups that have shut me down hard though)
Outside of my last two games I've done really well with him win or loss, and those last two I'm just sick and playing poorly
AloneInTheCrowd2 votesGnar is broken and should be nerfed , that's why .
Kowe The Ewok1 votesGnar is broken and should be nerfed , that's why .
Gnar can deal much damage, has the potential to have good CC andis tanky - BUT:
He can only play this out if his opponent let's him. His abilities (transformed) have a noticeable windup. While small HE HAS NO ULTIMATE. Both of his stuns are unreliable, especially his ultimate requires his opponents to be OUT OF POSITION.
Gnar is a champion that does well against bad players with low reaction time who tend to misposition.
Thus: SoloQ
Gosh, I love how people these days are too bad for the simplest amount of counterplay.
Gnar has a big indicator beneath it name. Use it against him. If he transforms and you are a bad player - stay away from him and wait for it to run out. If he transform and you're a semi decent player - dodge his THAT BIG FREAKIN RED RECTICLE. Or use the 2 days windup on his Q to dodge it. Transformed Gnar is slow he can be easily kited.
Not to mention that champions like Pantheon or Wu can completely deny or even kill Gnar at levl 2. Or Zed e.g. will always dominate Gnar with his mobility.
Most people completely fail to realize that they can use Gnar's passive against him. There are times where you truely don't want to change.
Last hint how to destroy Gnar: Pick Vayne top. Once Gnar is transformed there's absolutely nothing he can do if you tumble his W. (Just don't stand next to a wall when his R is up).
If Mega Gnar jumps in and misses EW he is completely helpless against Vayne due to his horrible mobility.
Antonidas12 votesHe already is getting nerfed lol
Skias2 votesIt's because he's a CC tank with better abilities then most pure tanks combined with Vayne's passive. He's got tons of ranged poke. He's just way overloaded and another thing to make Top not fun. (Already the land of not having fun.)
Creamy Seaman2 votesHe's cancer.
SUBMIT OBEY2 votesPeople hate Gnar cuz he is OP. Azir was so broken that Riot forgot to fix the permaslow and perma speedboost dumb ass broken Yordle ever. Ranged champs in top lane are oppressive enough now they make one that turns into tanky bruiser after abusing the range poke. What a joke. Top lane is just crap now. If any player wants a solid melee fighter matchup your out of luck.
Rustling Bush2 votesi got hit by mega gnar's full combo, so i went to the library and read a book. when i got back home i was still cc'd
IwfiKe3qjM1 votesMaybe Black Cleaver + BotRK is the main build... Boots between Berserker Greaves/Ninja Tabi/Ionian Boots of Lucidity...
the other 3 maybe something that add MR like Maw of Malmorthius/Guardian Angel??? or HP and Armor like Warmog/Randuin Omen???
