Gangplank is the opposite of these idiots. Kill your own creeps so even if they do autoattack your lane isn't pushed as hard, and you actually DO deny opponent xp without even zoning, which is near impossible in solo q duo lanes. >.>

I literally typed this post, then cancelled thinking "as soon as he gets to 30 those will be distant memories)

But really, whenever you will run into a decent jungler on your team you will be owning so hard because of your lane being pulled winning will become stupidly easy.


Autoattacking doesn't really stop at lvl 30, its actually quite common. I'd go as far as to say that its more common that people autoattack than last hit.

When I tell people its smarter to last hit because it makes you safer from ganks and also enables you to zone your opponent, they're like "STFU just play" or "what are you talking about?".

I really do wonder what people are doing all the way up to lvl 30

I was referring to the fact that fakesteve is like the uber community manager lord of razer and a long-time TLer, if he goes hardcore enough to get to lv 30 he'll get duoqueued out of elo hell in an instant.

BTW, completely unrelated: awesome mice bro. I've been a steelseries fan since 2007ish but I wouldn't trade my deathadder for anything in the world. GJ.

I got manamune (tabi, merc or swiftness), mallet, atmas, IE, GA / LW / banshees on GP nowadays, I like mallet because it works with parrley (gives you a ranged slow on GP, which is gold since it also stacks with red)
If we need more tankyness ill go spirit visage before atmas.
But thats my 5 cents, it will probally change again soon.

Hello,

I've been playing Gangplank for a few months, and I have gotten really frustrated with the builds that are out there for him. I've come up with a new build that I have played about 7 games with now, and I have been doing really well:

Summoner Spells

Ghost and Ignite/Exhaust

I prefer Ignite because you can run in and Q -> Ignite for a kill without putting yourself in too much danger.

Runes

Armor Pen Quints and Reds
Magic Resist / Level Blues
Health / Level OR Mana Regen / Level Yellows

Masteries

0/16/14

Defense up to 60 health
Mana and Move Speed in Util

Skill Order

EQQW then R > Q > E > W

Most people max W second, but I like E because the passive damage helps Sheen/Triforce and the passive speed lets you stay on Lvl 1 boots forever. Just use the W as a cleanse.

Items

Sapphire Crystal + 2 Health pots

Sheen -> Brutalizer -> Trinity Force -> Ghostblade -> Brutalizer (lvl 1 boots sometime)

Core Build:

Ghostblade, Trin Force, Lvl 1 Boots, Brutalizer

After That:

Depends on the situation, but Banshee's Veil and Atma's Impaler are what I like

Playstyle

I like to take solo top and deny xp with E. Kill a melee creep for 2 waves and the tank creep every 3rd wave. Then just Q as your mana allows on the squishy champ or to make some money. Use your R when your jungler ganks (top or bottom).

Later run around and poke with Q. Ult team fights and don't be the first one in. And don't forget Ghostblade.

Try it out and let me know what you guys think.

atmas is good on a lot of melee champs because it provides armor and crit, both stats that a large number of melee AD types like to have, plus they like getting some bulkiness, so the hp translates to extra AD, which is pretty nice as well

Yeah atmas is a great item on basically all melee DPS. The best gankplanks I've seen have used a combination of ghostblade, atmas, banshees and IE often in their builds. It's definitely a lot better than critplank imo, or tankplank who doesn't do enough damage overall.
I've seen wayyy too many critplanks who have like 1800 HP at lvl 18 and no survivability who can do 1500 damage but are 1 shot themselves. So dumb. Or tankplanks hitting for 50 damage on ashe.

atmas is good on gp because it is one of 3 items that gives both damage and crit%, the armor is just bonus

Feel no Fear recently starts from double philo stone, and doesn't get chalice.

Gp is sooo useless if you have to start teamfighting before he gets IE

personally I play gangplank as an aura whore but to each their own. if you focus on parleying minions instead of champs he can farm extremely quickly and I usually get

To be fair, the dude got 1900 doing it his way. He has to be doing something right.
