Overall, Ahri sees a large worsening in her KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Gnar. His KDA went down from NaN to NaN.

Yet, the small difference demonstrates that this performance change is not very impactful.
When Ahri is paired with Gnar, she observes a marginal improvement in her total damage dealt. This change may signal that Gnar provides protection for her to deal more damage or that his allyship also helps extend the game's duration. Similarly, when Ahri is played alongside Gnar on the same side, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees compared to when she plays without Gnar. This is contrasting evidence that she is worse when playing with Gnar.
Moreover, when Ahri plays with Gnar on the same team, she usually takes a little more damage than when she plays alone. Getting dealt more damage may indicate that Gnar does a poor job of protecting Ahri during team fights.

Is Ahri better when played alongside Gnar?
There is no ideal champion pairing for Ahri that will always be her ideal teammate. However, Gnar is a very bad teammate for Ahri. By locking into the same side as Ahri, he lowers their win rate by -3.1% to 45.1%. This proves that there is a terrible synergy between Ahri and Gnar that allows them to perform not as well together than alone.
Gnar has a greater difficulty than Ahri. That means Ahri players need to be cautious when finding Gnar comrades to play with, as they will require a greater level of skill to do well with you.
Working together, you should expect to observe an overall large increase in your team’s capability to deal magic damage. When paired, these two can deal quite a lot of AP type damage.
Conversely, by pairing Ahri and Gnar together, you probably will not be giving your other allies enough sustained damage output. We recommend you have other champions on your team that nullifies this disparity in this pairing's capabilities.
Regardless of the ability of your Gnar teammate, you should focus on maximizing your gold income, warding to avoid ambushes, and taking down objectives. If you do this, you should do well, regardless.
