Irelia and Jax can split, sure, but they also struggle with laneswaps. GP has a ranged Q that allows him to handle laneswaps better. | ||

Exactly...you are describing an OP champion (for competitive). There are no tops that handle laneswaps and can splitpush. The closest would be Heacarim, whos splitpushing is really not that great, his laneswap resistance is from good jungling, and he is susceptible to both ganks and lane bullies. | ||

Don't forget GP also has a global ult which seems to do quite a bit of damage. It's not as good as Shen ult, but it IS a global ult so he can make an impact instantly regardless of whether or not he has TP. | ||

Basically, whatever physical damage your attack does, the barrels explode for that damage + the 60% armor ignore + the barrel extra damage vs champions. As a result Triforce is easily the best first item for damage that you can get. Your EV for barrel damage is a little higher than IE while being far more consistent and you get all of TF's other benefits which feel really good on GP. I find that after sheen/triforce farming becomes really easy and you make tons of bank. TF's insane clearing power does falls off later if you build tank but if you do go at least one more big AD item your clear is never too bad. Hydra lets you save barrels for fights tho. | ||

Includes crits and Tforce, possibly Hydra damage? His lategame teamfight presence will be insane. Seems his only weakness will be an early reliance on getting farm for ult upgrades.

It's operating under the presumption that Riot wants splitpushing to be countered early by lane swaps, and that a champion avoiding that is somehow instantly OP by design, for some nonsensical and very broad reason. | ||

why would it be frustrating to play with you don't have to do anything? he literally just tanks up twice his hp and just pops it for a shield like what? | ||
