Identical tiers, different outcomes: Despite matching C-tier ratings, Gnar struggles with only 45.2% win rate. Jayce's mechanics prove more effective in this particular confrontation.

Farm your way back: Gnar's superior farming (7.09 vs 6.53/min, 16th among Top) offers a comeback path. Focus on safe CSing and capitalize on your 0.56 CS/min natural advantage. Outclassed across the board: Jayce leads in both matchup win rate (54.9%) and damage (926 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 44th for Jayce), but loses the matchup overall. High KDA without wins suggests difficulty translating individual advantages into victory conditions.
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. Jayce deals mainly physical damage (77.63%), additional items against this damage type may be required against snowballing or aggressive play.
An important advantage of Gnar is higher farming statistics (ranked 16th among role champions) (versus 30th for Jayce), which provides a stable gold advantage in extended games and allows faster access to key items. Meanwhile, their lower KDA (1.7 versus 1.9) suggests they are less effective in team fights.
In this difficult confrontation, it is critically important for the Gnar player to avoid attempts to force trades and all-ins with the Jayce 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.
