Gangplank is the new Kassadin

DJ S0NA·Jan 24, 2016·1 votes·371 views

While not being extremely annoying as Kassadin was back in 2011-2014 in solo queue, Gangplank is STILL ~100% ban rate after 50 games or more in every competitive league in the world.

He probably has the Azir and Ryze problem. Only players with alot of experience crush with Gangplank, Ryze or Azir in solo queue, or use them almost perfectly in competitive.

The ult cooldown nerfs don't do shit to the problems in the competitive. His barrels are still heavily strong and it's an extreme zone control and still doing alot of damage in long range.

What can we do to free him from the Kassadin syndrome?

"QQ, I can't be bothered to dodge barrels and think about what I'm doing in lane, so I just facetank barrels thinking I can kill him anyway -- but then he kills me! So OP and broken! Nerf!"

Basically all I see whenever someone cries about GP.

Dodge barrels, and you win lane.

Where did you see in my thread complaining about him? I'm just fucking tired of riot nerfing the champion in the wrong place.

And I'm fucking tired of Riot nerfing champions who have a TON of counterplay just because kiddies are too God damned lazy to do anything other than build armor / MR. Whenever a champion actually requires counterplay? People cry and rage about it, even the "pros" in LC$.

True. I just dislike his 100% ban rate in competitive because "barrels too op"

Please look away if you don't like spoilers for LCS.

CLG picked Gangplank after he was FINALLY not banned, and he can't even be fed or get kills.

Still don't understand why people ban Gangplank...
