General Description
Gangplank is a versatile champion who can deal damage both from afar and up close. He has the ability to heal himself and his allies, as well as apply slows and area-of-effect damage with his barrels. His ultimate, Cannon Barrage, can be used anywhere on the map to deal damage and slow enemies.
Gangplank Build
Gangplank benefits from items that increase his damage and survivability, such as Trinity Force or Sterak’s Gage. He can also opt for items that provide utility and crowd control, such as Dead Man’s Plate or Randuin’s Omen.
Gangplank Runes
In the rune tree, Gangplank typically runs Grasp of the Undying or Kleptomancy for more sustain and gold generation, respectively. He can also choose to run Resolve secondary for more survivability.
Gangplank Synergies
Gangplank works well with allies who can provide additional crowd control or engage, such as Sejuani or Malphite. He also pairs well with allies who can protect him and peel for him, such as Lulu or Janna.
Counters
Gangplank can struggle against enemies who can gap-close and burst him down quickly, such as Zed or LeBlanc. To counter him, it is important to stay out of his barrel range and to focus on disrupting his sustained damage.
Lore
