Can we gut GP yet?

Seenan··4 votes·547 views

Like, now? I'm tired of him being freelo in my ELO and I don't wanna play that cuck champion when he's unbanned.

Reduce his barrels available to 2 but increase recharge rate (I GUESS), go on with the current PBE nerfs, make the mastery Bandit not apply on his Q/barrels. Hell, nerf his oranges too while we're at it cause he's currently safe as fuck in lane.

There, basically deleted from meta. Sorry, Dyrus.

still waiting for them to gut him.

being able to wipe out entire enemy teams with a barrel combo + ult is just obscene.

The hiveminded forums downvoting me. Love it. But the point of the matter is, anyone below Diamond will lose a match against any GP and that makes it frustrating to climb to said elo. And then that's 20-40min wasted. Stupid champ.

  1. You're sensitive if you're going to comment at being downvoted by a hive mind while at -1 votes.

  2. I actually lose match ups as GP a lot, so "any" GP isn't automatically gonna win.

Judging by your scores in general and the fact that I'm talking about 5v5 SR, not TT or ARAM...you don't really matter as much to this topic. Or send me your main.

Global presence is op in any fashion if used well. To secure kills, to change the tide of a fight entirely that would've originally gone to the team opposing GP...all while being across the map. No TP needed. And since he's so safe in lane WITH high damage and with a high farming ability/waveclear, he's hard to get out of lane. And when you do get him out of lane, he'll just TP back and/or orange himself back up. Kek.

ALSO, I comment on the downvotes cause there's literally no reason to downvote me. I'm 100% right and nerds in silver/gold on this forum just want their freelo to stay freelo. Same idea for the Karma and Zac posts I put in. Karma, being less freelo than Zac or GP at my elo.

I don't matter as much despite you saying any GP.

This is my main. I don't play as much as I used to because I'm still adapting to my work schedule and my friends play late.

I'm just saying, rankeds are different than 3v3/ARAM. By far.

reduce his barrels to 2? you're insane he would never hit a barrel because all the enemy team has to do is walk away from the 2 barrles he puts down

I mean, reduce the amount he can place at one time to 2 (with higher recharge rates, again). The max amount placed can stay at...5, or whatever it is, per level.

The 2 is just because, his form of harass other than being able to shoot you, is setting 2 down, then throwing a 3rd down ontop of you while the 2 are set off. If you're not out of a relatively far distance away from him, you either lose cs or 30%+ of your hp if he has a Sheen or Trin Force. Then, once those 3 are placed, he sets 2-3 more and just either clears the wave entirely. It's a zoning and harassing tool at the same time, all while farming because his barrels waveclear like a mf.

Its almost as if pre-rework GP was healthier in all aspects than post rework... hmm....

ikr, they tried to make him less broken, but honestly he just feels more broken now. getting 2 shotted by parrley didn't seem as frustrating as getting absolutely fked up and permaslowed by his barrels. He isn't even as fun now, coming from a former otp gangplank.

yup. Sultan crit gangplank all the way. item 3087 item 3046 item 3031 item 3031 item 3078 item 3158. Worked better when trinity had 10% crit though xD

i really miss the original grog soaked blade. It was what made GP good; now hes an AD caster with severe blow your load syndrome and next to no stick.

I liked pre-GP. He had his place buffing his team and ulting when necessary. The Critplank was kinda strong, but he can still do that as post-rework GP, except with the comfort of AOE cause barrels. People are just starting to build the strong as hell armor pen items that have yet to be really nerfed on him, so he hits like a truck without RNG being on his side.

there is a nerf in there that you seem to have missed... Nasus

He got some nerfs on the PBE just a few hours ago. Read up on that first.

Or you could give him the movespeed of an ADC so he can't cleanse out if cc and walk away from early game aggression. This would make it possible for early aggressive tops and jungles to punish him. That would be a start.
