Perhaps they will raise the RP prices to reflect the 7800 IP cost in the future.

I just don't see the point, that's all. I mean sure, if it's gonna stay at 7800 as a new tier, fine. But if it's getting lowered to 6300 only weeks after release, why start off so high?

I feel like that's a luxury item, honestly. You already burst out squishies without it, and that's your job as Fizz.

The PBE stream of him I saw concluded that he was great top and weak in the jungle. Not sure why every Team Builder party wants to jungle with him.

Because every team builder has that one hipster douche who says, "Fuck the meta, I am unique and different!"

Except they're all unique and different in the same douchey ways.

Every team builder game having 2 Gnars is not surprising. I'm just surprised at how many junglers I'm encountering.

Nightblue was doing it earlier today, so maybe that's why.

New champions are always supposed to be jungled, duh. But really, Gnar seems like he'd be good at it.

I played with a couple of Gnars and only one did really poorly, and that was because we just sucked as team in general.

Leona mid, and she was fucking on our Orianna because of the fiddle camp, then when he started coming bottom he kept getting screwed cause he didn't learn from his first gank that ulting and not instant fearing me means he just gets stunned and killed.

EDIT: and as a note, their Gnar was doing good till he became a part of the 4 man gank on botlane.

It means that people who want the "NEW SHINY" factor will have to either use a little extra IP or pay real money. I think it's pretty fair, and once IP doesn't really matter to you, an extra 900 IP is nothing. I bought it with IP because I had like 30K just sitting and had nothing to do with it.

I don't think he's AWFUL in the jungle, but he has the same weaknesses as Shyvana... no hard CC, only gap closing and chase potential. A jungler without CC is pretty weak, and even though he has a slow, your best bet to play Gnar in the jungle is to go Wriggles and be a farmbot then rush BOTRK anyway. I think he probably has a niche in the right teamcomp coming out of the jungle.

Yeah. Team Builder is absolutely for trying crazy shit, that was half the point of them releasing the queue.

I think we could see pros using jungle-Gnar, because they're more likely to be able to time the ganks with Gnar's transformation. (And if you think a gank right at the moment where mini-gnar transforms into mega-gnar isn't terrifying, then you're probably nuts?)

That said, I don't think it's going to be
common

Yeah, the issue is that it's very hard to control those ganks. I could see someone getting it down to a science with how many times they need to autoattack wraiths before they can hop-transform-crunch into a gank, but that's still limited ganking potential.
