But hey, at least we nerfed his R by a couple of damage!
While completely ignoring the part where his barrels can almost one shot a late game ADC and shred any melee champions that try to CS in a Gangplank lane.
Can we please get a better balance team?
MagicFlyingLlama5 votesAnother day, another moronic, flame-filled Yenn thread.
Guess who he got trashed by today?
ModWulf Helhammer4 votesDo you ever stop complaining?

But you got me.. Instead
And im going to say this
Fuck gangplank and whoever designed that overloaded anti-gankable no-such-thing-as-armor and im going to double kill your bot lane from top - champion
MagicFlyingLlama3 votesThis is yenn, he just picks a champ to cry about each day. GP is not exactly imbalanced right now.
ModWulf Helhammer2 votesAnd if it's not that some champ is unbalanced, it's that something is wrong with Kennen
DeltaRaven2 votesReally, because the barrels have the most counterplay out of GP's entire kit, you can see the animation of them coming down and there's a fucking countdown that basically lets you know "Hey, I'm about to blow up shit around my immediate vicinity." Plus, if you're in range to get hit by a barrel (not a combo chain, just a single barrel) then you're probably in range to auto it and kill it if you can time it. They're quite a bit easier to deal with than the rest of his abilities, and that's why they hurt more. And to dodge Barrel chains, you just need to position carefully (especially near bushes you don't have vision of) so that you can react if he sets up a chain, and it's easier to dodge if you have a blink or dash.
Also, think about this. Say you gut GP's barrels (Which are a primary core function of his kit) so that the damage is significantly lowered. This could throw him completely out of viability, so instead the team lowered the power of other parts of his kit to compensate for the large amount of damage the barrels do. Not saying GP is 100% balanced, but he's strong when picked against someone who lets him scale for free, his early game is rather slow before Trinity Force.
Also, he's kind of supposed to be able to do damage, he's a late game Carry and if he tries to mostly use Auto's in a teamfight he should probably get blown up assuming the enemy isn't a sack of potatoes.
Warmanreaper1 votesGangplank isn't even that good.. if you lose to him you're just bad.. Hes only good in late game and the counter to him is to shut him down early

So you're playing a melee top, you try to go grab a CS, then he drops a barrel on top of you and explodes it while running away at 500 MS to ensure you can't close the gap and trade.
What do you do?
ModWulf Helhammer2 votesYou hit the barrel. It has to time down to 1 hit before he detonates on you.
Yenn1 votesYou hit the barrel. It has to time down to 1 hit before he detonates on you.
Except he puts one barrel behind him or in brush, drops the other on the minion wave, and explodes the one out of range at the same time, so it chains the barrel on top of you.
I'll forgive you not having any idea how the game works because you're bad, but please refrain from posting in threads about game play until you get good and play against people who aren't handicapped monkeys.
Warmanreaper1 votesIf you see him come close you know he's gonna barrel.. not hard you just gotta learn to play against him.. learn more knowledge before saying somebody is op
FeXUyzmL4l1 votesGangplank can be annoying, especially being able to ult anywhere on the map, but in terms of laning against him, as a Nasus main, he's not that hard. The barrel thing sucks but you can avoid it, and see him run up to try and place another to hit you with it in concession. If you wait a second the health on the first one goes down so you can destroy it if you hit it before he does, same with second ones. If you get on top of him though he can't really do anything, besides shoot you with his stupid pistol and try and run. Or ult you if it's up, which doesn't do much damage unless you stand in it forever.
