Its a pretty common buy on Gnar as his one offensive item. The main issue with it is the long delay it provides on you getting tanky. The only time I'd get it as a first buy is when I get a bunch of free kills early on. Otherwise it makes for a great last item purchase in the late game

Most pros tend to go hexdrinker because of the prevalence of APs in top, but there have been some LCK games where Gnar rushed Triforce first.

And the tf first gnar has been mostly unsuccessful. IMO it's probably better in solo queue based on how it played out in those games.


Honestly the cast of the game where Duke went trinity really bothered me. Monte tunnelled so hard on trashing the pick up that he called out duke for dying with ult up in a fight where he hit a 3 man ult. Everthing you've said is true but i still contend if it had been ohq on trist that game, people would have come away thinking trinity was a good buy
Carrilord has arrived.

Just like to point out Easyhoon rushed Tear-Abyssal playing Cassiopeia vs. IM a few nights ago o/

I mentioned this to you while we were discussing cassiopeia, azir, and kassadin a few days ago, and you called me silly


? WTF we didn't talk about Abyssal at all. infinite pls.

Imo, if you're going to pick up Triforce on Gnar, it's probably best to pick up phage and then sit on it until you finish your tank items.


Phage is probably the better buy on Gnar and then to sit on it if you plan to go the Triforce route.

If you're going to pick up Phage, why not just Brutalizer or Hexdrinker? Those are stronger laning items, and since rushing a Triforce is generally a bad idea, Hex/Brut are both better items to just sit on than a Phage.

It's pretty hard to wait for entire triforce on Gnar in pro play. People group so early for those early dragon, that the early powerspike of bruta or hexdrinker, and straight into tank is much more important. In solo queue where there's long lane phases, triforce is a lot more viable.

Before the nerfs in patch 4.20, I think almost everyone was getting triforce on Gnar. Since then, full tank or hexdrinker into full tank is much more common.

Land binding. Use blackshield when ADC about to get hit by CC.
grat's you're now a challenger level Morgana.

Tristana felt even more clunky than before, holy moly.
Wasn't expecting it at all, tbh but this jump surpassed all my expectations.

Towers are seriously exploding on the other hand, in late game you basically need to proc E and that's it.

In general, I like how they pushed her early game to "you need to actually trade and not just throw your E at opponent", but Tristana/Nami lane should wreck havoc if properly played.

Monte was oddly obsessed with it, and I agree. Its actually the games where Ssumday built it, when KT won that convinced me the buy was suboptimal.

A common skill path is to get W to level 3 and then max Q, since rank 3 W is enough to wave clear.

The one thing that I dislike about Monte's casting is that he gets these pet peeves that trigger him and he does nothing but focus on it for way too long. Another is spouting off about how 11 turrets and 0 deaths is the best game of league.

Also, it happened because Samsung is even more garbo that KT is atm.

I had one game where the Kalista kept giving me shit for screwing up her ult. It was also the first game I ever played bound to one. Then there was also the fact that she stopped me from Cataclysming for kills a couple times.

It also worked against CJ, but IMO it was a Pick/Ban victory that they could have closed out faster with a Hexdrinker.
