Volibear vs Gnar in Top lane is a hard lane on patch 26.14. The one thing to respect: once he's Mega Gnar he out-duels you hard and can ult you away — don't fight him in it. Below is the exact page the OTP runs — runes, skill max order, summoner spells, item build and the four tips that decide the lane, plus a quick quiz before you lock in.

How to play it

✓ DO

Fear Mega Gnar

Mega Gnar out-1v1s you big time — he can kill you in one rotation or ult you away, so never fight him after taking chip to reach him.

Burst mini Gnar

Your window is mini Gnar — run straight at him with Q to bait his jump (E or Flash), then all-in the opening.

Bait his E first

His E lets him dodge your ult, so make him burn it before you commit your R.

✕ DON'T

⛔

Commit onto him after burning half your HP to reach him — into Mega Gnar that gets you killed in one rotation.
