Hi! I play in ranked and i'm trying to main Gangplank. I know that everyone use corrupting potion or refillable potion + Sapphire crystal to start the game but i was thinking about gang's Q gold income and i start to think if this gold income + Cull could be better to farm in early game..
So what do you think about it ?
venomous frost2 votesyou will run oom quick = no gold income from Q you can buy cull first buy if you are in a safe lane
redfeenix2 votesHmm interesting idea, I rarely take cull on ANY champ.
I honestly believe that in lvl 1, the combat stats provided by dorans is much more valuable than the potential investment in cull.
Think about it - cull gives you 350 gold (or something? Idk never build it) but first blood gives you that much instantly.
So personally, for my playstyle, I take offesnive items/runes etc and try to first blood the oponent at lvl 1. This is a much better investment than cull.
Also Cull doesnt provide much combat stats and you're stuck in a passive playstyle. I hate it and I would rather buy dorans any day on any champ in any situation. (I hate farming / last hitting/ playing passively. I think that playstyle is very boring. I like to brawl and fight, thats how I enjoy league the most).
Just my 2 cents cheers.
ducobu1232 votesBut with Gangplank is good to farm cs to upgrade your R with silver serpents. I think i do better to farm and play passive if i want to have a better ultimate (without or with Cull) .
redfeenix1 votesIts upto you but personally I wouldnt ever buy cull on anyone (maybe kogmaw or something). I just love the early game (lvl 1-3) brawling too much.
Also I can farm up just fine, I dont think the CULL helps with actually farming, does it? Just gives you a lil extra gp.
Dblade is more effective since it helps you farm and fight. Plus getting a kill or two easiliy makes up for the cull gold.
zlumpy1 votesToo risky. People will punish you hard.
Ralanr1 votesIf I need extra gold in lane as GP, I'll get the bandit mastery. Mainly because I kinda suck at last hitting.
AwesomeChad1 votesyeah its completely fine. I think it might be better in matchups where you expect to win lane. If you're playing against a lane bully, you'll still be fine if you have tp.
Zane Zephyr1 votesI would say you should never start cull first item out of base with ANYONE
It's perfectly acceptable to by first back but should never be your starting item
