Today we have a really ridiclous player - a Korean Master who climbed with Off meta AP Gnar Mid. I talk about why he is playing AP Gnar Mid, his incredibly high damage, great AP Scaling and Surprising tools and decide - is the pick good?

Thank god no more top lane picks 😭 I can finally rest…
I'm sure something will come up soon enough.
Yet.
Rest stuck in d4 🙏
Yea, ever since your jenna video my games have been littered with people trying either Janna or Pyke top. Please never cover that ever again, the strategy is so degenerate. It ruined the games for both teams they were in
@@markwalker3510 His video came out after the strat took off. There was a player in masters doing it and RossBoomsocks made a video on him, then HCN made their video, and now Laurlo (a pro player) is spamming it in soloq
Never thought my int tactics are become off meta high elo picks 😂
I remember playing AP Gnar in season 5 or 6, it was a load of fun ! He really suffered from the lack of manaless burst mage items and increase of mobility with newer champions and items over the years, i never tried it with everfrost but it sounds quite interesting
Same did the same a lot during the same seasons. Most of my mastery points on him are from then.
pretty much just build 4 nashors XDDD
the attacck speed caps. but tis about that ap for cheap
i knew this moment would come... i was messing with mid gnar (altho just usual bruiser build), it felt good. also liked press the attack for early power, especially into assassins. but the big problem is low waveclear so most other midlaners will quickly shove you in.
Can't wait for ap gnars on my games
@@O-02 Yeah, mostly in bo5's, such a joy. . .
if you want to try another build I'd personally recommend eclipse into witts end or randuins with boots of the opposite damage type and lethal tempo.
Another PTA Gnar user?
😌👉
I love Gnar so much but the fact that hes not a very reliable pick in solo queue made me stop playing him, but now I got a new way to play him. Thanks a lot!
I tried out Gnar AP a little while ago but did it top lane and had good results still. Will have to try it midlane.
I had similar runes however I went full AP going deathcap instead of defensive items like the wits end or death dance. A lot more dmg but much squishier.
Its a feast or famine build but really fun, i strongly recommend going Dark seal as early as possible because ideally you want to be snowballing. This is where going mid instead of top is more beneficial and definitely something i gotta try out. Mid champs like assassins will be much harder to kite than the big chunky top laners tho
im one of those aram only players but one of my favorite things is playing everything as support or utility. old glp + ghosties was so fun on so many. new glacial and everfrost KINDA recreates how fun that time was for me. but anyways this was a treat to watch, ef is so fun. thanks!
Gnar mid in general is actually super underrated. Regular old AD Gnar can lane extremely well into scaling picks and can bully them early.
This brings me back memories of when I used to main Gnar and went nashor's, runaan's and gunblade. Was a lot of fun! Might try this one :D
AP Gnar? Ok Janna top is already being picked a lot in SoloQ right now, and now we have something that might actually give LS an aneurysm since his hatred for Gnar in pro play is weird and hilarious, and building AP is the straw that broke the camel's back.
LS watched my tierlist video on stream and was mind-blown by heimer support.
C9 call me Ill get you that trophy
@@HappyChimeNoises do you have a link on which stream is it. I would like to see his reaction.
@@HappyChimeNoises do you by any chance have a link to that clip anywhere? i wanna see LS reacts to happychimenoises

I love how you INTegrate the sponsor content in this video so well (no pun INTended), your humour keeps bringing me back man !!! 😂😂😂😂
3:22 funniest shit i've seen today
I'm so glad that you finally did a Gnar video!
One of the reasons I love these videos is they break down so much information like powerspikes, teamfight strategy, lane management, macro and all this other stuff. Honestly it's interesting to get these perspectives because it's information that I can apply to all of this game. I know you used to do meta character analysis, but that was before your channel had a big spike in popularity / production value. I think a lot of people would like to see meta flavor of the month breakdowns with interviews from high level / pro players with similar levels of information and tips from knowledgeable players. Thanks for the videos!
Currently I've been playing Chemtank / Sterraks Gage Tryndamere with Fleet Footwork in the jungle for anyone who wants something fun to try (The items have insane synergy with Tryndamere's extremely overloaded base stats/ growth per level). :D
I personally have been running the run fast af gnar damage build which is eclipse into either randuins or wits end depending on damage match up its with lethal tempo its still very good in late game with both mega and mini gnar.
Somehow I wasn’t subbed and forgot about your channel ;-; now I’ve found it again, subbed, and am binging cuz why not ^^
Remembered the Taliyah support pick after I saw it played in NA Masters yesterday (and yeah, she got fed)
Taliyah support was already picked before the video tho
@@arvorejoana4350 never said it wasn’t? I just said that’s what made me remember this channel
Interesting build.
I really liked the everfrost idea of build on non AP champs, since root can make a difference.
Thanks for the video!
i used to do hybrid gnar sometimes back when i played about 6 tears ago because of his W. surprised it took this long to catch on
I wish for these off-meta tactics (as roaming top support, nunu mid, etc) get into same match and see the mayhem at the rift
a while back I was messing round in training mode and picked ap gnar and was surprised by its damage but never played it in a real game.
I tried AP Gnar Some time Back in season 11 it didn't feel good but now this is a sign i have to try again
I just started playing AP Gnar on mid, after neglecting my W top lane and doing, kinda eh. But then I tried this, before I found this video, and it's insane. AP Gnar is beautiful.
I've been watching this Grandmaster Kindred mid, thats very unorthodox and difficult. I'd say it deserves a video.
I think BORK with Trinity and Wits end into tank is very similar to this damage wise, and less waste of gold but the ever frost root is cool
Ap gnar mid was my first time playing and building a champ how I want and I've been hooked since
Man you're making me int every ranked with these videos xD
Cool, a video about my favorite champion
first ap Twitch and now spellslinger Gnar. Keegan truly is a prophet.
your videos have a huge impact into the league- meta.. keep up the good work!!
finally gnar mid getting the recognition it deserves, hes great w the bruiser build aswell in mid but the ap one would probably be better , imma have to try it
my build is BORK with atk speed boots and then Tan Items.
With Lifesteal i get sustain and minignar damages pretty ok. As mega gnar i need walls or a team to help me in fights.
I'm Main Gnar, I never thought about it, I'm going to put it into practice XD
Deaths dance needs a lot of bonus AD to get back to the original level of survivability pre changes. The inclusion of magic dmg is nice but on gnar its worse vs ad targets than before right now.
Love these videos. They are very intressting and fun to watch. Sadly since they became popular people that have no idea how to play Janna top for example are trting these strategies in soloq based on these kind of videos. And that lone can make the game less enjoyable when someone is trying to abuse " more simple" strategies to gain free elo.
Same stuff with champs that are considered meta: people play "broken" champs for the first time in ranked, thinking that they can easily steamroll their way out of Bronze straight to Grand Challenger+.
Every LoL video has to be taken with a grain of salt. Yes AP Gnar is broken in the right hands, but so is basically every other champ. The champion alone won't make you play better.
I didn't try this yet, but I was doing AD Kraken Slayer Gnar and it's also fun
League is alot more fun when you do stupid builds and mess around
@@True_Damage69 true
Hey I'd love it it you covered LordofCowTime! Hes an NA diamond 2 alistar top one trick. He actually seems to do really well.
Remember kids that this build was played by a professional who understands the game and this champ almost flawlessly please try it out a few games in normals before jumping into soloq :D
No point, they will play it anyways
You can boil it down to most value out of passive. Lethal and the cc item give more stacks to reach big form. Mid lane has more wall areas for ult, deaths dance makes sure you get to big form before dying.
also remember the Gnar player, when you look back past 5 months had a small section where they did play the AP build provided about 90-100 games
then there are about 10 or so games with just a AP component in it out of the 864 games
AP Gnar used to be extremely strong, it got nerfed back in the day because it was so much better than AD Gnar. Cool to see someone keeping the dream alive, although this is midlane so it's a bit more unique!
What? They've never nerfed AP Gnar, it's legitimately only ever received buffs since his release. He didn't have an AP ratio on R on release, that was added later, originally at 50% but later buffed to 100%. They've made minor adjustments to the flat base damage of mini W, but have never touched it's AP ratio and they've only ever increased it's cap against monsters. There may have been times where AP Gnar got an indirect nerf due to item nerfs, like Nashor's, but they've never targeted AP Gnar for being stronger than AD.
@@RebelPhoenix117 Wasnt gnars ap scaling originally max percentage HP based on ap scaling?
@@Assametry No, it's always been a flat amount, +100% AP, +%HP (based on skill rank)
Straight up lying haha that never happened
@@Nielsper meh close enough
Just had an AP mid gnar , and he legit carried with his ultimate
I wonder if riftmaker would be able to apply a good amount of sustain from the omnivamp and you could get stacks quick with mega gnar combo.
This reminds me a lot of AP Shyvana.
another champ that can carry my favorite item in the game! good stuff :)
As a gnar main I love this video
Seems like we found where Akshan got his magic dmg on his passive from
God bless you for timestamping ads
I've BEEN playing Gnar mid, but not one trustes the pick, it's so good but I rather be the only one to know about it so please don't let this go out
Been playing ap gnar since he came out. That ratio is king
It is a good year to be a Gnar main
The sponser hit different with the janna top D:
I saw pants played this a while ago
Fun build
Janna top became meme for us top laners
i actually also technically play an off meta gnar build, i dont like playing him tank and if i do wanna play tank i just play support, i build gnar more like a bruiser with triforce, black cleaver, wits end, warmogs (for the hp regen), and maybe sterraks
Just figure out that on the miniature there is a rabaddons cap but he doesnt use it in his build
I might need some hair loss treatment after AP Gnar ints my game
Ive been playing ap gnar for a while, season 11 made ap gnar insanely fun
wtf my troll pick being used in master? Now this sounds interesting. quite useful info thxs chime
quoting myself from yesterday first timing gnar rn: "Wait gnar has ap scalings? that is weird?" but i thought about adc xd
Sidenote: you dont get lost chapter. You are supposed to build the other components first leaving the chapter for last, and even avoid buying it if possible (by building the completed item when u have enough gold) unless you need that bit of extra AP it gives u. So you build kindle, blasting wand & x2 amp tomes
wait... everfrost dont build from blasting wand now. U mean 3 amp tomes, right?
another note:
The gnar player only played the ap build for fun in a small amount, total games done past 5 months 864 games, out of those 112 ish games went with the ap on hit route shown in the video or bought a ap component.
Meaning the gnar player mainly went to master as Bruiser/AD gnar
preferred roles
Top->Mid
This sounds like my kind of playstyle... I've been enjoying attack speed AP Neeko mid, maybe I'll add AP Gnar to my list...
Look into Singed Jungle. It's pretty amazing
I like how all of these videos are people trying to fix weaknesses their character has using tools not entirely 'ment' for their champs its very intresting
Thank you happy for exposing this pick to low plat na I just had 2 games of ap gnar they both went 0/6
I've been playing ap gnar top for a while now because bruisers and tanks melt. Probably should try him mid and instead of riftmaker I should build everfrost
All the gnar one trick are happy now! (not talking for myself at all...)
Great... now every silver midlaner is gonna be locking in ap gnar
if it's against you probably easy win and if it's ranked freelo, seeing as the gnar player themself mainly got to master with the standard AD/bruiser gnar build
Bro i played ap gnar back in the season 8 and i was like it could work and then never played it again
You came at my time of need lol
I legit had a teammate play this in my game half an hour ago XD
Me to myself: CAN I PLAY IT ADC?!
I think it can fit better as a support, like playing as a Poke mage until your Mega Gnar is ready and then switching to an Engager
Now we’re gonna get ap gnar in mid in my plat game, thanks a lot
will be inting then, since the gnar player himself if you look back past 5 months had only a small time where they did spam about 90-110 games with the ap build and is mainly playing top or mid with a AD/bruiser build
Hello, I have arrived to remind you of the Expert Challenger Advice

Kidding
Thanks for always making amazing videos each week to look forward to, Chime! I'm glad I could provide you with some Expert Challenger Advice™to assist.
Gnar looks like he's zoomin' ~ gotta run fast
P.S. Everfrost is
P.P.S. Wonder if Gnar's going to need to order some Keeps soon 🤔He seems quite hairy, but perhaps he's under 35
P.P.P.S. No dark purple (jk it's OK thumbnail looks lovely still)
Ah good ol ap gnar. It's just way more fun than anything else.
Tomorrow is gonna be a fun day full of ap gnars on ranked...
What a hilarious build
This (combined with a griefing 18 deaths 1v5 Olaf) explains why I lost a game today.
So a disadvantage of playing gnar is that he depends on his team to do followup on his ult, but this build has the same problem, everfrost into ult is really good if you aren't the only one dealing damage. A classic gnar doesn't stand a chance against irelia in the lategame but at 8:35 he is 2 levels ahead. Using lethal tempo and botrk+bruiser items you could have done the same while being less squishy .
That way mini gnar is still quite the threat in teamfights and mega gnar is still a beast after his ult is on cd.
Blade of the Ruined king is also VERY good with gnar
Had a guy go 1/9 on this. Thank you happychime!
What runes does he take, would lethal tempo not help the range problem
It is funny that frost do not give hp now.
I always play ap gnar on aram and get some unexpected kills with the passive
looks fucking fun
Fun fact- 3 days after this video was posted I went up against a an AP gnar mid….
And I’m a new player…
I went 14/3/17 as Lux mid gg
Damn, i was playning ap gnar for lolz, and was laughting with Friends this shit working.
to a degree, the gnar player themself mainly got high in elo as AD/Bruiser Gnar in Top, you can look back past 5 months of games about 864 games as of this post.
where 100 or so games where done last month as ap
i like the idea but you might want to take this top with smite and support item i think it would work better that way
Hey Chime is it possible you can find a off meta tahm kench, love playing him and wouid be interesting to play a off meta build
Play ap tahm mid xd that sounds cheesy
Surprised nobody plays this, it’s been a thing since like season 6
Bruh that sponsor was shameless 😂 😂😂
WAIT IN THE VIDEO IS THAT CORKI ADC CRIT BUILD?
Exists a Main kennen support on high-elo?
Regarding the waste of money on mana, wouldn't Riftmaker be a good mythic option? It gives Gnar good sustain and true damage so I think it could be good. Probably gonna try to build it after I play a few games with everfrost to see how it compares to it
I’m 99% sure Riftmaker would be the better option. Although not as fun or flashy as everfrost-gnar
Riftmaker is still pretty terrible as an item for everyone. Rocket belt is the best other option imo
5:25 I definitely check my enemy's inventory all the time. I bet high elo players do the same.
I was also confused when he said that, not knowing that the enemies have stopwatch/zhonyas would make this game so much harder than simply pressing tab
@@imrengarotp3802 yeah and major item powerspikes etc.
wouldn't rocket belt be better for setting up stuns kinda like ekko or am I not catching something
YES IVE BEEN DOING THIS SUPPORT FOR AGES
'Late game irelia'
'Irelia is two levels down on the gnar.' Yep...mhm
ive been playin this start for mounths
just not in masters xD
I always nicknamed gnar minivayne
what about night harvester instead of everfrost? more ap, more health, more ability haste when you get your second item because the mythic passive, movement speed to chase down kills with autos. it kinda feels bad to buy everfrost idk
Solid
