Statistical Matchup Analysis

With 2.9% popularity, Gnar constantly encounters meta-dominant Dr. Mundo (5.5%, 8th place out of 62 Top champions). Understanding how to play against this popular champion becomes essential for consistent Gnar performance in the current patch. Every edge matters: In this tough matchup, the proven Grasp of the Undying + Demolish combination (57.5% win rate) plus optimal itemization Trinity Force, Sterak's Gage, Wit's End, and Plated Steelcaps boosts your chances from 45.5% to 70%+ - potentially game-changing.

Farm your way back: Gnar's superior farming (7.09 vs 6.28/min, 16th among Top) offers a comeback path. Focus on safe CSing and capitalize on your 0.81 CS/min natural advantage. Outclassed across the board: Dr. Mundo leads in both matchup win rate (54.5%) and damage (934 vs 735/min). Gnar must seek alternative win conditions through macro play and team coordination. Strong individual performance: Gnar maintains better KDA (1.90, 30th place vs 40th for Dr. Mundo), but loses the matchup overall. High KDA without wins suggests difficulty translating individual advantages into victory conditions.

How to Beat Dr. Mundo as Gnar (Top)

Difficult matchup requiring deep understanding of game mechanics and flawless execution. Patience and proper macro play are the keys to victory in this confrontation.

Except for rare builds, Gnar deals physical damage. Focus on eliminating enemy carries. Dr. Mundo has mixed damage, be careful as it may be harder to defend if the opponent gets ahead or plays aggressively.

An important advantage of Gnar is higher farming statistics (ranked 16th among role champions) (versus 43rd for Dr. Mundo), which provides a stable gold advantage in extended games and allows faster access to key items. Meanwhile, their lower KDA (1.8 versus 1.9) suggests they are less effective in team fights.

Key aspects of the Gnar Top versus Dr. Mundo Top matchup

In this difficult confrontation, it is critically important for the Gnar player to avoid attempts to force trades and all-ins with the Dr. Mundo player, as the matchup requires a patient and calculated approach. Extended trades without clear tactical advantage often lead to unfavorable consequences, and ignoring opportunities to receive team support can be a fatal mistake for game progression.

    Gnar tips:

    • Managing your Rage is very important. Try to time out your transformations so you can get maximum benefit from both forms.
    • 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.

    Playing Against Dr. Mundo

    • Try to coordinate high-damage abilities with your allies right after Dr. Mundo uses his ultimate, but if you're unable to kill him quickly with burst he will heal through the damage.
    • Try casting Ignite when Dr. Mundo uses Sadism to negate a large portion of its healing.
