Notes

  1. Updated for 14.1 League of Legends Patch.

How to play

  1. You start with Guardian's Horn. Your #1 rush should be item that counters enemy team most (MR or Armor item). Get Jak'Sho as #2 item. Then adapt.
  2. Remember that you need to be close to enemies to proc Jak'Sho. Do not be afraid to go in and stay close to them in fights. This way you can proc Jak'Sho and get healed.
  3. You will be more tanky later on, so play more carefully in the early game.
  4. Guardian's Horn is a surprisingly good item for its price. You can keep it for very long time (or even have it as 6th item).
  5. You need to adapt your items to the game. Enemy team heavy on AP? Buy MR. They heavy on AD? Buy Armor. You need some damage? Well buy that.
  6. Remember to consume your Grasp of the Undying procs!

Tips and Tricks

Riot
  1. Managing your Rage is very important. Try to time out your transformations so you can get maximum benefit from both forms.
  2. Position yourself next to walls to bait your enemies into getting stunned by your ultimate.
  3. Know your strengths! Mini Gnar is fast, squishy, and has high sustained damage. Mega Gnar is slow, tough, and has high burst.
