| Matchup | Threat | Games | WR | Gold @ 15 | Gold Diff | Tips | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
![]() Aatrox | Easy | 174 | 57% | +43 | +433 | This matchup tests your ability to bait out and sidestep Aatrox Q, hovering in and out of its range constantly as Mini-Gnar. Whenever he misses his Q3, you need to hard punish with mini-gnar by poking him out and zoning him out for the duration of his Q CD. If you successfully poked him out with mini-gnar, you can try to stun-lock and kill with mega-gnar else you can use mega-gnar to push the wave and crash, either go for a cheater recall or continue to harass under tower.Save mini-gnars dash for the chains. You should really outscale Aatrox in the side lane after 1 item provided you avoid his 3rd Q(flash it if you have) | |
Skill Priority![]() Q Boomerang Throw / Boulder Toss Gnar throws a boomerang that damages and slows enemies it hits before returning to him. If he catches the boomerang its cooldown is reduced. Mega Gnar instead throws a boulder that stops on the first unit hit, damaging and slowing everything nearby. It can then be picked up to reduce the cooldown. ![]() W Hyper / Wallop Gnar's attacks and spells hype him up, dealing bonus damage and granting him Move Speed. Mega Gnar is too enraged to be hyper and instead can rear up on his hind legs and smash down on the area in front of him, stunning enemies in an area. ![]() E Hop / Crunch Gnar leaps to a location and bounces off the head of any unit he lands on, traveling further. Mega Gnar is too large to bounce and instead lands with earth-shattering force, dealing damage in an area around him. 57.0% WR 172 Matches Summoner Spells![]() ![]() 61.2% WR 98 Matches Skill Order![]() Boomerang Throw / Boulder Toss Gnar throws a boomerang that damages and slows enemies it hits before returning to him.

You really want to kill Jax with Mega only after poking him with mini-gnar Q's. Play around Jax's E timing with your E and you should be fine. | |
