Let me refund Gangplank

DEGplays·2/10/2016, 2:54:24 AM·1 votes·535 views

If Gangplank is going to be gutted THIS HARD, why should I even want him within my champion pool?

His Gold advantage, which made him extremely unique, is becoming more annoying to take advantage of and is disappearing due to the limitation of only being allowed to keep a max of 3 Barrels ALONG WITH the change of 4 krakens at each rank.

4 Krakens at each rank? what makes that so bad after the change of 250 for an upgrade? its the SAME SPEED AS BEFORE, just nerfing his gold intake, you know? one of the BEST THINGS that come with GP (also creating a fun way of playing a short minigame of "how many minions can you kill with one Parrrley?" Remember the days when we get item 3087 first? I do).

I don't think I could ever use his captain skin anymore, only his classic fits with this monstrosity of a nerf.

I used up all of my refund credits, can you please riot refund this useless champion from my champion pool since he betrayed me and became less of a pirate, and more of a scam.

Or nerf him in a different way, Lower his Passive movement speed which he gets with his barrels and his armor penetration on them, Lower his amount of waves with Ulti and the slow or lower his base heal with Remove Scurvy. any of those seem more reasonable than Gutting his snowball and his ability to Parrrley

BUT, Please don't touch his Q anymore, its fine the way it is. The amount of Krakens was fine then as well.

Its hard to win lane as GP but the nerfs planned for him give him almost no shot at obtaining nearly enough gold to stay in the fight. I love this champ, it made me consider going more in-depth with League of Legends, and I tried to play him even after his previous nerfs and I still enjoyed him then too, but this has gone long enough and this is not what we need right now.

Sincerely, DEG, the Captain P.S. Riot, if these nerfs go through, just refund Gangplank for me, he is just going to be as useful as a ranked system in dominion.

But Riot doesn't care.

They only care about E-sports right now.

Though I do wish I could refund GP and his skins.

P.S. Riot, if these nerfs go through, ... [Gangplank] is just going to be as useful as a ranked system in dominion.

So... highly sought-after for years and incredibly useful? Not really sure why you'd use a comparison that completely contrasts with everything else you said.

nerfing a champion is one thing, but completely gutting them into uselessness just because your previous rounds of nerfs failed is silly.

GPs ult is and always has been the problem. its global, it hits hard, and it has the ability to separate half of a team every fight. his barrels are just the cherry on top of the cake tbh.
