This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing with Gnar.
Additionally, when Braum plays with Gnar on the same side, he on average takes a little less damage than when he plays alone. Taking not as much damage may mean that Gnar does a decent job of protecting Braum during team fights.

Is Braum better when played alongside Gnar?
There is no top companion for Braum that will no matter what be his best synergy. Yet, overall, Gnar is a very typical ally for Braum. By locking into the same team as Braum, he decreases their win rate by -0.8% to 50.6%. This demonstrates that there is not really a strong bond between Braum and Gnar that allows them to perform worse together than without each other.
Gnar has a much greater difficulty compared to Braum. That means you must be very careful when lining up Gnar teammates to fight alongside, as they will require a much higher level of skill to fight well with you.
Playing alongside, Braum players should expect to observe an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to soak up damage. Together, these two will be able to tank for the rest of their team.
Conversely, by grouping Braum and Gnar together, you probably will not be granting your other teammates a lot of attack damage. We recommend you have other champs on your team that nullifies this relative disparity in their kit.
Regardless of the ability of your Gnar ally, you should focus on increasing your gold income, staying alive by avoiding foolish fights, and taking down objectives. If you do this, you should do well anyway.
