If you haven't seen yet, there's been nerfs on the pbe for GP. Essentially, barrel life has been reduced to 25 seconds, and Parrrley mana cost increased at early levels. I've recently picked up GP because he's good and I like his playstyle. How much will these nerfs impact me?
RenownedWheat421 votesIf all you're trying to do is abuse him due to meta, then it'll probably hurt you a ton. Otherwise, it'll probably hurt, but you can work around it I think.
Take biscuit delivery and, if you need it, sorc secondary w/ manaflow (assuming you take Klepto).
Divine Winds1 votesi mean i'm in bronze so the meta doesn't really matter anyways... The nerfs target the early game, so I'd expect that it'd be almost irrelevant late game?
RenownedWheat421 votesShould be, yeah. But again, if it seems hard, just try and take things that will help you out with mana. Coin start, for example, can help out esp if you miss some CS.

nelogis1 votesThis change is hitting his early laning phase pretty hard.
You should be more careful with Q'ing the opponent too often (maybe even not putting a point in W in certain matchups to get the Q mana cost down ASAP).
Barrels are going down faster which means you either play more aggressively in which case this change doesn't matter at all or you have to place your barrels more carefully.
All in all after you are level 7 and have your sheen you shouldn't feel any difference
If you ever have played GP mid then that is the way you should play him top now
