GP Mana Q Cost too harsh?

I am your average elo hell bronze 5 player and I play a decent amount of GP, and I wanted to say that GP's Q mana cost is insanely HIGH! for what it's worth he can't lane until you put one or two points of levels into your Q. That is a HUGE Setback for lane phase. Because the 60 mana cost you can only get 3-5 parrrley's off before running out of mana and then having to go back for more OR getting lucky with blue. GP does start off with just under 300 mana and using OVER 50 mana to lane is insane. you also have your W that is the Remove Scurvy and that is 80 mana when you first get it. If you use that. Gangplank Is supposed to be a HUGE lane bully.

if he has mana problems he isn't a good champion, Simple as that.

Well if it would cost energy it would be even worse

GP would easily poke out most top laners with his Q and Grasp of the Undying. Barely his mana pool going down, and is literally like a pantheon. Increasing his Q is a great idea because GP is already a late game carry, putting his early game weaker. (Concept) It puts GP in a okay position, not making his as strong.

Gangplank's Q cost was needed. There were 0 drawbacks to spamming it over and over again to the point it was more annoying than Pantheon's Q.

The whole point was to nerf him early. Considering he maxes it first, it only affects early lane really. His nana costs really aren't even that high as is. You only think they're high because you're used to them being stupid low. In reality they're fine. You don't get to spam Q for free melee klepto or grasp procs off CD all lane long anymore which is 100% justified

He needed the nerf. His Q spam was cancerous.

Honestly if they added mana refund to his q on minion kill then it wouldnt bee so bad as gps would only use it to farm rarher than poke early on
