Gangplank Barrel Ping

Físty·Jun 1, 2017·33 votes·1,189 views

As a gangplank main I find it really frustrating that I cant ping how many barrels I have ready. The most common situations is when someone ganks my lane and I only have 1 barrel ready, this makes it much harder for me to follow up in some situations when for instance their laner have a huge wave pushing in, or that Im just too low HP to go in melee range or Q range. So Id really like to see a change to the ping system for gangplanks barrels, it doesnt only help me out but the jungler aswell, he/she is not seen on the minimap and doesnt waste time.

Agreed when you ping the ability it should say: "(ability) is ready! X charges available"

Maybe this mechanic can be used for stacking spells too! Sion W could show how much HP he got, GP Q would ping how many Silver Serpents he got, Nasus Q would ping how many stacks he has...

im pretty sure you can just alt click on any of three shop upgrades and itll show your teammates how many ss you need (which is all that matters really)

Just reading the title alone, I thought this was going to be a thread about not being able to triple barrel at high ping XD

Upvoted. The issue is the coding since none item or abilities which are working on charges/stacks indicate how much charges you own. (ie. Targon;

Not a GP player, but this seems like a positive change.

I've been thinking this for a while. It's frustrating to have your jg try to gank when you're Akali and you have only one charge of your ultimate, but it takes too long to say that in chat, so your LeeSin has already fed first blood.

I also wish that you could ping whenever your passive is ready (primarily on champions like Annie , who rely on their passive to do anything, if it has a long cooldown, and would be best to wait, like Kindred , or it's something that'll save your ass, like Ahri 's passive, and you want your allies to let you Q a goddamned wave so you can heal, but Caitlyn has already killed most of it).
