Position yourself next to walls to bait your enemies into getting stunned by your ultimate.

Know your strengths! Mini Gnar is fast, squishy, and has high sustained damage. Mega Gnar is slow, tough, and has high burst.

Gnar has a greater difficulty than Talon. That means you must be cautious when lining up Gnar teammates to play with, as they will have to have a greater level of skill to do well with you.

When playing cooperatively, you should expect to witness an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to dish out massive AD. Together, these two can tear through the other team with a lot of physcial damage.

Although, by aligning Talon and Gnar together, you probably will not be providing your other allies a great deal of magic damage. Make sure to have other champions on your team that fills this relative gap in their playstyle.

Regardless of your Gnar ally's ability, you need to focus on maximizing your income, outlasting your enemies, and taking down objectives. If you heed this simple advice, you should do well anyway.
