Why this duo works

Mega Gnar can knock enemies into a wall and stun them, then add an area stun; Jinx can use that pause to land a missing-health rocket and splash damage on the grouped targets. The crowd-control setup is consistent with the +3.0pp High Elo effect over 2,026 games, versus +1.6pp in Low Elo over 2,721 games.

Measured in High Elo: this duo wins 1.8pp more often than expected over 2,026 games.

Playing the duo

Mega Gnar's GNAR! can throw enemies into a wall for a stun, and Wallop adds another area stun; Gnar players commonly chain his leap, ultimate and stun in one Mega Gnar combo.

Jinx's rocket explodes for area damage based on missing health, so it can punish a group of enemies held together by Mega Gnar's knockback and wall stun.

How to play as Gnar

When Rage is about to transform you, signal Jinx and look for a Mega Gnar ultimate that sends enemies into a wall; follow with Wallop so she has time to land her rocket and add damage.

How to play as Jinx

Hold Super Mega Death Rocket for Gnar's wall stun or area stun, when enemies are less able to dodge; use Fishbones for splash follow-up and place Flame Chompers along their escape path.
