Gnar

Gnar, the Missing Link, is one of Freljord’s champions: a relentless close-quarters warrior and a resilient protector who holds the front line whose legend is woven into the wider world of Runeterra.

Gnar carries the mark of their homeland in everything they do, and their tale is one thread in the larger story of the world.

Ties to Freljord. A harsh, frozen expanse of warring tribes, ancient ice magic and old gods stirring beneath the snow. Gnar is counted among the champions connected to Freljord — explore the wider region on its Freljord lore page.

Role in Runeterra. In the fiction, Gnar is a relentless close-quarters warrior and a resilient protector who holds the front line, usually seen in the top role in play. Their in-game kit echoes this identity, but the lore frames them first as a figure of the world rather than a set of numbers.

Powers and presence. On the battlefields of Runeterra, Gnar thrives in the thick of battle, trading blows up close and outlasting foes through sheer resolve, and stands as an immovable wall, absorbing punishment so that others may fight on. It is this identity — far more than any statistic — that defines how Gnar is remembered across the world, and how allies and enemies alike come to fear or follow them.

Others of Freljord. Gnar shares the story of Freljord with champions such as Anivia, Ashe, Aurora, Braum. Reading their tales side by side reveals how a single region shapes very different heroes and villains.
