Am I the only one who keeps seeing people abuse AP Gangplank after his rework?

I mean, that's all I'm seeing. I didn't realize his AP ratio was so god damn high. I'd get him down to just a sliver of health, but his pure AP build let him use the oranges to heal everything! Like, nothing had happened at all, then the cannons came. Not even a half second and the cannons came.

I mean god damn, has anyone else noticed this? Just build him AP you never die, your oranges always fully heal you, remove all crowd control, oh and he can run away and cannon barage to easily get a Penta kill without trying. I mean I've never seen such a huge ratio on an ultimate or one ability. And yet, I'm being called salty in games for asking, "how high is that AP ratio?" Or, "did you just really heal all your health then one shot me?!"

That's not what I had seen coming. I can understand the Oranges to a point, but the healing ratio is off the charts. But the Ult is just cruel with Pure AP. Dealing upwards of 1,500 per barrage shot.
