Overall, Vayne sees a very large drop in her KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Gnar. His KDA decreased from NaN to NaN.

This difference may demonstrate that Gnar does not provide protection for her to dish out more damage or that his presence on the team also helps extend the game's duration. Similarly, when Vayne is played together with Gnar on the same side, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees compared to when she plays on his own. This is contrasting evidence that she is worse when playing synergisticly with Gnar.

Moreover, when Vayne plays with Gnar on the same team, she typically receives a little less damage than when she plays alone. Getting dealt not as much damage could indicate that Gnar does a decent job of protecting Vayne in team fights.

Is Vayne better when played alongside Gnar?

There is no perfect companion for Vayne that will 100% of the time be her #1 ally. Yet, Gnar is a terrible companion for Vayne. By locking into the same team as Vayne, he decreases their win rate by -4.0% to 46.3%. This shows that there is an easy to overcome and exploit bond between Vayne and Gnar that allows them to perform worse together than without each other.

Gnar has a lower difficulty than Vayne. That means you don't need to be careful when enlisting Gnar comrades to play with, as they will have to have a lower level of skill to cooperate well with you.

Playing cooperatively, you will likely observe an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to dish out massive AD. Combined, these two can tear through the other team with a lot of physcial damage.

Although, by pairing Vayne and Gnar together, you will not be providing your team a lot of AP. Plan to bring other champs on your team that helps cover this relative hole in this pairing's potential.

Regardless of your Gnar ally's skill level, you need to focus on increasing your gold income, outlasting your enemies, and clearing objectives. If you do this, you should do well anyway.
