One of these champions is not usually played in this lane — treat the verdict as a rough guide.
How to play it
- Press early
Gnar is stronger in the first levels — shove and deny farm.
- Poke and back off
Use your range: hit, then step back before Vi reaches you. Never stand where they can.
- Don't chase
Vi escapes faster than you — take farm and towers instead of running.
- Physical resistance
Vi deals physical damage — Death's Dance as your 2nd or 3rd item.
When you are in danger
- Full HP or back off
Vi's burst kills from half HP. No trades under 60%, and buy Death's Dance early.
