Hey ! I am a Gnar lover too ! So, I play Gnar in top most of the time, and I discovered a fun and strong (at least, strong when I play it) build based on the MS. It is a tanky build, but still with some damage ! Here is the build (in my order, for the first 2 items, after it's what you want) - Hullbreaker (Because, MS, nice damage and more tankiness + with demolish, you destroy towers x)) - Deadman's Plate (Tankiness + Nice MS, for running away or chasing !) Now the order is when you want to take it : - Black Clever (It gives MS + item passive usefull) - Sundered Sky (No MS, but powerfull item with the regen, the nice amount of HP you have, and tankiness) - Force of Nature (MS + Tankiness AP) I usually play with the following runes : Grasp : Demolish, Second Wing, Overgrowt Triumph, Alacrity Adaptative, MS, Growing HP (But, after some reflexion writting this message, the rune "celerity" [in the blue tree]) should be really good with that build !) (And, btw, this is a good build against Darius too, to escape him x)))
How do you play against darius? I thought gnar was a speedy rat, but darius is disgusting with his ms. His pull is gnars AA range and being pulled means death, so what do I do?
You can't, Darius cunter for gnar early game . Darius, irelia , Gwen , and more cunter for gnar But as a tip, use your E correctly and it will be a bit difficult
tbh i usually try to bait grab and wait to use your e to avoid him getting 5 stacks and just poke cause you just have to give him prio cause youre weak into him until mega but still darius shreds :/
I personally have a ton of trouble with darius but what I can say I rush boots first & take bone plating. You can try to match his ghost If you want, but not necessary. If he pulls you, try your best to e out preferably onto minions to get double bounce. If not, you can try to e ontop of him slighty toward your tower + q so you can aa once and get ms from w. I would say wait later lvls and get trinity to 1v1 him easier. Like I said, I always suck vs darius too even tho it should be good matchup but I always have trouble so its something we will have to learn together I guess lol.
After lvl 6, Gnar auto outranges Darius E, so it is a bit easier to trade then. Try to bait his pull by walking towards him and back repeatedly, but stay out of range. Since his E cooldown is long, if he misses it, this is when you should try to poke, CS, or all in him. Try chunking him with boomerangs until he's around half health, then you can kill him with mega form. However, if you try to 1v1 him as mega while he's full HP, you will likely lose.
