GP is too strong

his Q can ctr his barrels can ctr he can just sit undertower and use barrels to farm he can use R and get kill/double kill on bot when they have low hp his oranges are unbalanced , he removes all possible cc even if he is frozen by lissandra and heals more than soraka's ult ... his passive is an ignite which is scaling with ad how is that a balanced champion?

This. If you're saying he's too strong early, then I'll pay attention to your reasons. But late game he's supposed to be an unstoppable killing machine.

a good gp main won't get punished early.. that's why he has the barrels.. to farm from distance

I think lane freezing doesn't need CC. It's about keeping the minions in one place.

He can't take an entire wave with one barrel early game.

The only thing you have to do against GP is to kill his barrels. You won't kill them all, but his barrels are his everything. Damage, waveclear, poke, escape, CC. If he lands every single barrel on you then yes, he's broken. If Ezreal had a way to land every Q on the enemy champion/s he's facing, he would be more broken that post-rework Skarner.

I recommend to play either :

  1. Champions who have AA-reset abilities (Jax Nasus Trundle Darius Mordekaiser etc etc). Hit the barrel as soon as it has 2 hp then quickly reset it, it even gives 10g!
  2. Ranged champions. Your extra ~400 range over what melees have is more than enough to be safe from his barrels, unless he chains all three (and then you have like 20 secs free of harass).

And to watch this video. I watched it yesterday, so I mostly summed it up and added my personal thoughts, from a top lane main.

Also, if you want a definition of lane freezing. By pushing a little bit faster or a little bit slower (or not at all and last-hitting), you can change the place where ally and enemy minions meet. Use this to your advantage.
