Gnar into mobile champs

[bronze linden]

How does Gnar deal with champs thst can gap close him? I've had a bad game against Riven and a really good game vs. Yasuo (but that may be because he sucked) and I wanna know how to replicate my success against dashing champions consistently, I love Gnar but I know there's a lot to learn about him.

Isnt gnars whole thing grasp proc trades and mamaging his rage with Q? If your constantly managing it well when they go for a engage youll be able to transform depending on your build it should work out also if you watch rage for ganks that would work too

[cunning path]

His rage is really hard to manage though, trades longer than .5 seconds edge his passive and if you get 85% there it just auto activates for you

[jade sorrel]

Maintian half, when you jump over someone it gives a large boost to it

If you freeze or slow push the wave rage management gets easier never hard shove or use abilities through waves

Why would you run grasp gnar?

He can't abuse it like outher shapeshifters and it doesn't do much for mini gnar.

[jade sorrel]

Hes a lane bully, I run grap so i can get a bigger advantage with short trades

Like you can run pta but trading that much makes you increase rage

Dont get me wrong if you get a massive lead it doesnt do you much justice but when your even or behind it gives the kick you need

[bronze linden]

I like Fleet because you can escape, Grasp seems like a gamble

[bronze linden]

Is Grasp better than Fleet for trades? Fleet procs off minions, towers, and monsters, lets you stack rage faster, and gives you extra ms on top of your W passive while Grasp only procs on enemy champions

[jade sorrel]

Grasp heals and perma increases hp while doing a bit more damage, procs more on champs then fleet

Grasp is every 3 attacks while fleet needs movement

3 graps off before 2 fleet

Pair that with second wind and it might heal more

[bronze linden]

So it adds to your W damage

[jade sorrel]

But this is specificly bruiser gnar

W is atk speed? If so then yes

[bronze linden]

Aren't you supposed to kite anyway

[jade sorrel]

Depends on the champ

[bronze linden]

Hm, true

[jade sorrel]

Put it to you blunty

If your fighting a grasp character without grasp is a higher chance of losing trade

Also grasp gives the bonus hp

Most characters rush brambles against ad bullies

You lose half the heal from fleet

Gnar also has a vayne passive so you majourity of the time wanna hit 3 times

Thats 2 grasps

[bronze linden]

Okay, I'll try Grasp, but I've gotten used to Fleet bruiser Gnar

[jade sorrel]

I might not play gnar but I play strict bruisers

Only time I dont run grasp is when I cant proc it on sett or playing urgot

Urgot does better on pta

[jade sorrel]

Best thing to remember is boomerang gives 2 stacks to grasp if im not wrong

So technically

You can get roughly 3 or 4 grasps on a semi quick trade
