He has the highest total damage in the game, and the potential to pressure the map at all times with his ult. If that interests you, go for it.

Gp is really really good. He currently has way over a 50% win rate in both Top and Mid Lane. I play Darius as well. I tried GP, I just don't have that much fun with him. You need to be patient and have great map awareness to excel with him.

Gangplank is really fucking strong atm... So people are banning him in my ranked games >_> fml

He has a massive zone tool that costs no mana, gives insane wave clear, ignores armor, gives him a speed boost, crits, and can be setup so that enemy can't stop it from going off. So yeah if you like really overloaded ability champs then GP is perfect :P

GP is a very high mechanical champion, but he is so worth learning. He is very, very strong right now. I might want to hold off though, because I can smell nerfs coming

Not until they revert his nerfs, and sions as well. IMO

GP is currently broken in both solo que and professional play.

When I'm not banning Raka, I'm banning him.

But yeah if you want to pick him up go ahead, he probably has some nerfs heading his way soon though.

GP is completely farm dependant and can't lane vs ranged champions and lane bullies... He is good only with AOE CC teams or teams with hard engage, so he can use his barrels combo and then go in. Also his builds are not flexible - bruiserplank and tankplank got deleted, so now you have to play critplank. His tankiness, base damage, mana sustain and burst got nerfed, because of the abuse in competitive Lol. BTW, pre rework GP was capable of 1shotting with 1 Q squishies lategame, now you can 50 to 75 % of their hp, but it's AOE with the barrels.
