Extreme

NONONONONONO AVOID THIS MATCHUP AT ALL COSTS PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD NO NO NO. Her Range completely shuts you down. She can Auto you down faster than you can imagine, if you have the misfortune of fighting Cait then I suggest building rage and going into Mega Gnar to farm ;_;. Expect to be carried this game unless big mistakes are made by your enemy, also grab some lube on the first back, you'll need it.

Introduction (SKIP IF YOU DONT WANT TO HEAR MY LIFES STORY)

Hi guys, my name is BoBoSeph and I have been playing LoL for a pretty long time but only recently have I gotten really far into it, and I mess around with alot of builds trying to find what I like the most. In this guide I show you what I've found to be the best way to run ADC Gnar.

Pros / Cons

PROS
-Only viable ADC with no cost (IMO).
-When ult activated it gives a burst of health.
-High DPS is MINI form and High Burst in MEGA form.
-Magic and Physical Damage Shredding.
-Depending on the build you can do a lot of different things.
-Is adorable.

CONS
-High Skill Cap.
-Learning Q patterns can be a pain.
-Tiny AA range.
-Early game is awful.
-Most of the time can only farm really well early game when in MEGA form.
-Squishy in best form.
-Late game your transform can be a blessing or a curse.

Farming

Farming is easy once you get the hang of it. Since you're so squishy and have EXTREMELY tiny AA range then you'll have to wait until you get a few levels or even when you transform to really get the amount of CS you want. Your Q in MEGA form helps to clear out waves easy, try to take advantage of your burst with MEGA Gnar to push your lane opponent out of lane while still trying to CS harder. Just know that you'll probably be behind for the first bit of the game, but that's okay because you'll start to scale very hard after getting BOTRK.

Runes

Overall I've found that the Armor seals and Flat glyphs of MR works the best. However, in theory the flat health seals give Gnar more tanky with the defense point and Gnar himself in Mega form. You can run Scaling MR glyphs if you aren't against any magic damage in bot lane. I reccommend 100% to take the Flat AD Marks and AS Quints though. As of the ADC Meta right now they work the best.
