Is Rek'Sai better when played alongside Gnar?

There is no ideal ally for Rek'Sai that will 100% of the time be his #1 ally. However, overall, Gnar is a very typical ally for Rek'Sai.

This shows that there is a weak synergy between Rek'Sai and Gnar that results in them performing worse together than without each other.

Gnar has a much greater difficulty compared to Rek'Sai. That means you should be very careful when arranging Gnar teammates to go into battle on the same side as, as they will need a much higher level of skill to work well with you.

Fighting cooperatively, Rek'Sai players should observe an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to dish out massive AD. Together, these champs should be able to take down targets with auto-attacks and other AD damage abilities.

Although, by bringing Rek'Sai and Gnar together, you may not be giving your side a lot of magical damage output. Make sure to have other champs on your team that offsets this relative disparity in this pairing's capabilities.
