Abilities[]

Rage Gene

Rage Gene

Innate - Rage Gene: Mini Gnar Mini Gnar generates 4 / 7 / 11 (based on level) Rage Rage over 2 seconds upon dealing or receiving damage. Against non-champions, basic attacks and Boomerang Throw Boomerang Throw instantly generate「 0.5 / 0.875 / 1.375 (based on level) Rage. 」「 12.5% of the amount. 」 Against champions, Boomerang Throw Boomerang Throw instantly generates「 1 / 1.75 / 2.75 (based on level) Rage, 」「 25% of the amount, 」and basic attacks instantly generate「 2 / 3.5 / 5.5 (based on level). 」「 50% of the amount. 」Boomerang Throw Boomerang Throw can only generate Rage once per cast, and grants Rage based on the first enemy hit. Gnar's Rage decays after being out of combat for 13 seconds.

Rage Gene 2

At maximum Rage, Gnar's abilities are switched to Mega Gnar's Mega Gnar's abilities for 4 seconds. Casting one of Mega Gnar's abilities will cause him to transform into Mega Gnar Mega Gnar, else he will transform automatically after the 4 seconds have elapsed.

Gnar's Mega Mega form lasts for 15 seconds, with his Rage bar depleting as an indication of remaining time. Rage cannot be generated while in this form. Afterwards, Gnar returns to Mini Gnar Mini Gnar, retaining his Health icon current percentage health and becoming too Rage Gene 4 tired to generate Rage for 15 seconds.

Gnar gains different stat bonuses based on whether he is in Mini Mini or Mega Mega form. Both of Gnar's forms share their ability cooldowns.

Info
  • The Rage generated upon dealing or receiving damage occurs over 2 seconds with 4 ticks every 0.5 seconds. It also does not stack but instead refreshes with subsequent applications (of dealing or receiving damage).
  • The bonus rage generation on basic attacks counts as an On-hit icon on-hit effect, and is triggered by Runaan's Hurricane Runaan's Hurricane and Guinsoo's Rageblade Guinsoo's Rageblade.
  • In-game, the value on the Rage bar always displays rounded down to the nearest integer.
  • Mega Gnar's Mega Gnar's gained health is not affected by healing modifiers such as Grievous Wounds icon Grievous Wounds and those from items and runes.
  • When returning to Mini Gnar Mini Gnar, Gnar will only retain his current health percentage, not current health total.
    • This is intentional to prevent Gnar from simply triggering Rage Gene Rage Gene in order to heal himself over time.
  • Gnar's abilities share Cooldown icon cooldowns across forms.
  • The final stats, after Rage Gene Rage Gene being applied, can be seen on Mini Gnar's and Mega Gnar's respective data template, in the front page.
    • Mini Gnar gains 5.5% − 99% (based on level) bonus attack speed.

0 − 20 (based on level)
Total Movespeed:
335 − 355 (based on level)
Bonus Range:
0 − 100 (based on level)


Edit

Boomerang Throw

Boomerang Throw

Active: Gnar throws a boomerang in a line in the target direction that deals physical damage to enemies in its path and Slow icon slows them for 2 seconds.

After reaching its maximum range or hitting an enemy, the boomerang flies back toward Gnar based on his current movement, dealing 50% damage to subsequent targets.

Physical Damage:
5 / 45 / 85 / 125 / 165 (+ 115% AD)
Reduced Damage:
2.5 / 22.5 / 42.5 / 62.5 / 82.5 (+ 57.5% AD)
Slow:
15 / 20 / 25 / 30 / 35%

Catching the boomerang while it is returning back refunds 40% of the ability's Cooldown icon total cooldown.

Enemies can be hit only once per pass.

Info
  • The boomerang return direction is determined at the apex of its flight by Gnar's current position and which direction Gnar is heading at the time.
  • Since the cooldown between the two is shared, Mini Gnar may pick up a boulder and/or Mega Gnar may catch a boomerang.
  • This ability will cast from wherever the caster is at the start of the cast time.

Edit

Hyper

Hyper 2

Passive: Gnar's basic attacks On-hit icon on-hit and ability hits apply a stack of Hyper to enemies for 3.5 seconds, refreshing on subsequent applications and stacking up to 3 times.

Hyper

The third stack against a target consumes them all to deal bonus magic damage, capped at 300 against Monster icon monsters, and grant Gnar 20 / 40 / 60 / 80% (based on GNAR! GNAR!'s rank) Movement speed icon bonus movement speed that decays over 3 seconds.

Bonus Magic Damage:
0 / 10 / 20 / 30 / 40 (+ 6 / 8 / 10 / 12 / 14% of target's maximum health) (+ 100% AP)

Gnar gains Hyper's Movement speed icon bonus movement speed when he leaves Mega Mega form.

Info
  • The bonus movement speed's duration refreshes whenever Gnar would receive it (by hitting a target three times again).

Edit

Hop

Hop

Active: Gnar Dash leaps to the target location, then gains Attack speed icon bonus attack speed for 6 seconds.

Bonus Attack Speed:
40 / 45 / 50 / 55 / 60%

If Gnar lands on a unit he will Dash bounce 500 units further in the same direction.

Landing on an enemy deals them physical damage and Slow icon slows them by 80% for 0.5 seconds.

Physical Damage:
50 / 85 / 120 / 155 / 190 (+ 6% maximum health)

Gnar will not bounce if he is Stun icon immobilized, excluding from Sleep icon sleep(bug), during the first leap.

Boomerang Throw Boomerang Throw can be cast during the dash. Hop will cast at max range if cast beyond that.

Info
  • Hop does not allow Gnar to bounce off wards.
  • Hop does not grant bonus attack speed if used to transform.
  • If Hop generates Rage to maximum and Gnar bounces off an enemy, he may cast GNAR! GNAR! during the bounce.

Edit

GNAR!

Mini Gnar Mini Gnar - Passive: Hyper's Hyper's Movement speed icon bonus movement speed is increased.

Hyper Hyper Bonus Movement Speed:
40 / 60 / 80%
GNAR!

Mega Gnar Mega Gnar - Active: Gnar thrusts in the target direction, Airborne icon knocking away nearby enemies up to 590 units in that direction, though not through terrain, and afterwards dealing them physical damage, as well as Slow icon slowing them by 45% after a 0.4-second delay for a duration.

Physical Damage:
200 / 300 / 400 (+ 50% bonus AD) (+ 100% AP)

    Original
    RP 880
    13.08.2014
    Gnar is an excitable yordle whose playful antics can erupt into a toddler’s outrage in an instant, transforming him into a massive beast bent on destruction. Frozen in True Ice for millennia, the curious creature broke free and now hops about a changed world he sees as exotic and wondrous. Delighted by danger, Gnar flings whatever he can at his enemies, be it his bonetooth boomerang… or an uprooted tree.

    Trivia[]

    • Gnar, Elise Elise, Nidalee Nidalee, Jayce Jayce, Kayle Kayle, and Samira Samira are the only champions to be conditionally considered both Ranged role ranged and Melee role melee.
    • Gnar's concept is built on monstrous transformations in fiction coupled with the Fish Out of Water trope.
    • In Brazilian localization, Gnar's title was changed to O Yordle Pré-histórico ('the Prehistoric Yordle') in order to avoid matchmaking-rating-associated jokes/bullying derived from O Elo Perdido ('the Missing Link').
    • Gnar is the second champion to have two champion portraits (Mini Gnar Mini Gnar and Mega Gnar Mega Gnar) the first being Quinn Quinn and Valor Valor.
    • Mini Gnar has the fewest active abilities of any ranged champion (Hyper Hyper and GNAR! GNAR! are fully passive effects) and the lowest health at Level 18 (1645).
    • Mega Gnar has his own separate emotes from Mini Gnar's.
    • Mega Gnar has the highest Experience icon level 18 Attack damage icon base attack damage (157).
    • Although patch V7.16 made it so the portrait of the selected skin would be used in the central portion of the in-game UI, transforming into Mega Gnar Mega Gnar always uses his base portrait for all skins.
    • Hop Hop has the shortest ability name at 3 characters long.
