really unless you had a particular CC heavy top/mid/jungle Lucian should never allow you to catch up to him. If you ever get close enough with a bounce he should immeadiatly dash out of the way, avoiding your initial CC in the process after which you're not going to catch up without a considerable amount of help. And without using bounce you shouldn't even be able to get near him in mega. On top of that, they should just avoid fighting you in mega, again if your top/mid/jungle don't have heavy CC you'l have close to no protection for your squishies while you're in mini. Also, their team did a god awefull job at protecting their carry/attacking yours, Gnar's behaviour is increadibly telegraphed so most of it is reasonably simple to avoid/react to. Lastly, you got ridiculously rich given that half the time you don't even get half a build as a support, it's unlikely you'l be even half as succesfull with less of that build completed. (On a sidenote, what's BoL, can't remember for the live of me).

That being said, in optimal circumstances mega Gnar can potentially function as a similar type of support as leona, though I'd say he's probably too telegraphed & slow to be of much use in higher levels of play, plus mini is godawefull in the role of support and he has stupendously clear counterplay in this role thanks to his obvious weaknesses and telegraphs.
