The gangplank changed we need, but not the ones we deserve
It is unilaterally agreed on that gps RNG needs to go. It just doesn't fit his kit anymore (pre rework gp was the "king of crit") but now the way he works is One big moment: the ult + triple barrel. Now you can have all those crit items that give like 70-80% crit but at the end of the day if you don't crit the triple barrel all your gold goes wasted pretty much , you lose the fight , and probably the game . This needs to change :
E: powder keg -no longer applies sheen proc ( this never made sense in the first place Aoe sheen from triforce but not lichbane ? )
- 10-180 bonus damage to champions removed
- ignores
40%=> 30% armor
Here it comes baby
- IS NOW GURANTEED TO CRITICALLY STRIKE for 100/125/150/175/200 % crit damage (200% is how much normal crits do fyi )
BOOM GP is now no longer impelled to build crit that locks him out of other options like more armor pen, lifesteal, tankiness. He just grabs an infinity edge a bloodthirster and a last whisper some Tanky/ ad items (maw/ frozen mallet etc) and he is good to go. His barrels are now always consistent and always do their full damage, while not being broken (since they need to Be maxed to do the full crit dmg ignore less armor and no longer apply sheen. ( you can still go t force or even ice born if u like the stats (especially the cdr ) and your autos and q will still apply it , just not the barrels)
Also from what I've seen from gp players it is also agreed on that raise morale is his weakest ult upgrade and also many gp players miss the pre rework Gp raise morale where he would fire his pistol in the air and increase everyone's ad. Here's what i got for you boys :
- raise morale : Gangplank and his allies move faster towards the target Aoe (where the cannon balls are landing )instead of when inside it but receive bonus ad while in the circle instead ! So now his ult is better for initiation and is really frightening for the enemies to stand in. It also will allow gp to make sick plays like triple barrel flash into ult for the bonus ad just as the third barrel is about to explode ! Genius huh ?
