Gnar vs Singed

Updated Jun 3, 2026

Overview

Control the lane by using mini form range to chip and kite Singed while managing Rage for mega form engages.
Focus on denying Singed's proxy and wave disruption by maintaining lane control and punishing his movement mistakes.
This is a control vs teamfight matchup where Gnar must leverage ranged pressure and mega form crowd control to win.

Trading pattern

Trade primarily in mini form using (Q) and (W) to chip Singed while kiting with (E) to avoid his (E) and (W) slow.
Punish Singed when he uses (E) aggressively or when his (R) is down by stepping forward for short trades.
Avoid extended trades without Rage ready, as Singed's poison and grounding slow punish prolonged fights.

Danger windows

Be cautious when mini form (E) is on cooldown, as Singed can punish your immobility with (E) and (W) slow.
Avoid fighting Singed when his (R) is active, as he gains speed and durability to survive and disrupt.
Watch for Singed using (W) to ground you before (E) to prevent your escape; maintain spacing to reduce his engage success.

Early game

Use mini form (Q) to poke and keep Singed at bay without overextending or losing (E) for escape.
Avoid fighting Singed when your (E) is down, as mini form is fragile and vulnerable to his (E).
Time your Rage buildup to reach mega form before Singed hits level 6 to counter his increased durability and speed.

Power spikes

Level 6 mega form with (R) is your major spike; manage Rage to enter fights with hard CC and durability near terrain.
Singed's level 6 (R) grants speed and durability; respect his ability to survive deep engages and avoid chasing through poison.
Your first bruiser item enhances your durability and damage, enabling stronger trades and objective control.

Win conditions

Use mini form ranged poke to control the wave and build Rage safely before committing to mega form engages.
Time mega form transformations near terrain to maximize (R) wall stun and set up teamfight engages or dives.
Deny Singed's proxy and wave disruption by maintaining lane pressure and punishing his attempts to force bad chases.
