Hello! Are you sure about Lethal Tempo for this Gnar? How about domination? https://www.mobafire.com/league-of-legends/build/ap-as-569974

I mainly take it, because it gives me some time to close up with Q before getting the AS-burst. I get your build tho, but this one is a bit more AS-focused rather than burst. Your‘s is really good tho too.

I think the hail of blades build might be a good base for a jungle build now that Gnar's in the jungle pool. Right now I'm thinking the secondary rune page could be Precision, not sure if the runes should be Alacricity or Bloodline, and Coup De Grace or Last Stand. The most apparent problem I see with this is that this would be the type of build you'd make for a "all or nothing" type of playstyle. I'm also curious about possibly going bloodline and over heal then focus on life steal items like Blade of the Ruined King and Bloodthirster, actually I think Bloodthirster's passive is over heal, and I doubt that doubles the effects so that idea might not work out. I was also looking at Resolve as secondary runes, with Font of Life to give teammates extra help when you gank (since all of your abilities impair enemy movement) and second wind for longevity.

Heyo SpartanDumpster. I agree that the HoB variant could be very good for jgl-Gnar and I'm thinking about adding a chapter for jungling too.
I showcased the Sorcery-path since it's not the most obvious "duh, just go Alac + CdG secondary" runes. The thing with AP-Gnar is however that he kinda already is all-or-nothing, especially with HoB so the Alac + CdG variant would support the build fairly well.
The idea of going Bloodline + OH is very creative, but since this build really mostly focuses on AP damage, lifesteal-items wouldn't really be the thing to go for here, since most of them give you AD and not AP. It certainly can work, but then it wouldn't really be AP-Gnar yknow. (you can actually make a guide on that lol) Also the HoB variante is rather focused at burst-damage and earlygame, so lifesteal wouldn't be the most ideal thing to focus on.
I really like the Resolve-secondary idea tho. It can give your laners some extra sustain and survivability, wihich I think is really good for a jungler. I wouldn't take Second Wind tho, since it only heals you for a small amount mid-fight and doesn't proc at all in the jungle. I'd rather take something like bone-plating in that case, since it negates more damage than second wind and can rechage inbetween ganks.

Thanks for your feedback. I greatly apreciate it. :)
Sorry for replying so late, but I was on a trip with friends, so if this writing sounds a bit odd, it's because i'm a bit hungover. c:

Yeah, after the 10.4 patch I started experimenting with jgl-Gnar but my biggest problem is sustain. I feel HoB would work better if you're either against a tank in the jungle (which this patch and I believe the next patch will make more possible) or if you focus on ganking tanks.
So far it looks like Gnar's most viable jungle builds are just going to be his regular, more common builds maybe with some minor variations. I was hoping to run wild with something completely new, the type of thing you wouldn't dare bring top lane.
