Who Wins
- You lose early 1v1s levels 1-3 due to Gnar's superior range and mobility with E, making it difficult to land Q consistently.
- At level 6, you gain kill pressure with R execute damage, but Gnar's kiting potential with ultimate transformation still makes extended trades challenging.
How to Trade
- Your best trading pattern involves landing Q when Gnar is in mini form near minions, then following with W silence and E for sustained damage.
- You must commit fully to trades since Gnar will poke you down if you take short trades without meaningful retaliation.
Wave Control
- Focus on shoving waves with W and E to force Gnar under tower where his kiting is limited, then look for roam opportunities.
- Avoid freezing since Gnar can freely poke you in extended lanes, and prioritize getting level 6 quickly for kill pressure.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't waste Q on max range attempts when Gnar has E available, as the predictable skillshot will be easily dodged.
- Avoid taking repeated poke without trading back, as Gnar's sustained damage will force you out of lane before you can establish meaningful pressure.
