Introduction
Gnar is a controversial character both ranged, melee, tanky and at the same time squishy. So, there are many questions one might have. I'll answer them to the best of my ability as a gnar player.
Also just in case you were wondering no this isn't an off-meta guide.
Also just in case you were wondering no this isn't an off-meta guide.
Itemization with Gnar
Gnar is a character specialized in teamfighting but also a pretty solid laner so the build has to reflect that.
1. Your first item should be an item that directly helps you in laning phase. Commonly gnar players use 'trinity force', but through testing I reached the conclusion that 'dusk and dawn' fits this role much more efficiently.
2. Afterwards your items should be starting to focus more on teamfighting, things that give you AD, health, armor, etc. Items like death's dance, black cleaver, stridebreaker... accomplish this objective.
Trinity force has always been the item for gnar, damage, speed, some health and CD, additionally a sheen item which gnar uses proficiently. So let's check it's pros and cons

Dusk & Dawn VS Trinity force
Trinity force has always been the item for gnar, damage, speed, some health and CD, additionally a sheen item which gnar uses proficiently. So let's check it's pros and cons
PROS
-
AD scales better for teamfighting and gives you better poke with Q
Gives you movement speed
The spellblade deals more damage (mega gnar has the highest base AD)
Components are easier to do
CONS
-
233G more expensive, almost a kill
PROS
-
Gives a greater cost efficiency in stats
The spellblade heals you and instantly procs your mini-gnar W with your Q
Cheaper
CONS
-
Expensive components
AP scales with your W and R only meaning it's less efficient in teamfight
Runes for Gnar
Gnar runes are a debatable theme since 'fleet footwork' was harshly nerfed, so let's talk about which ones are good.
Gnar essential key runes are the following:
Set 1. VS Healing, is a set meant to fight things that are hard to kill and have a hard time reaching you, but if they do they hurt. For example: Sett, Warwick, Malphite...
Set 2. VS No healing, is a set all around poking the rival and getting him out of lane. For example: Vayne, Teemo, Pantheon...
Set 3. VS Good matchup (Greedy), is a set for sure fights when they practically can't contest. For example: Sion, K'sante...
Set 4. VS Good matchup (tanky) and variation, serve the same purpose as set 3 and set 1 but are more safe in my opinion.

About the guide
This is my first serious guide about a champion, I really love playing Gnar but sadly I'm not good enough to tell you how to play it, only how to build it. I would recommend you a Youtuber or a guide for it but sadly I do not know of any nor does onetricks.gg.
I hope you have a blast playing Gnar, byyye
