Hey! Firstly, I'm a GP main and thanks for making such a fun champ, put a good amount of time and had a lot of fun with him. When I start to get the feeling something is going to get nerfed in any game, I tend to stop playing it until it gets nerfed, as all the cool things I did feel 'irrelevant' or like it doesnt really count that I won all those games or made that cool play, because it was deemed OP at the time and was nerfed. Which brings me to my point! Are you guys going to nerf GP soon? I havent played in awhile cause I can smell the nerfs coming with the rise in pick rate and ban rate along with GP seeing some pro play.

If there are no near future plans please let me know so I can get back to playing some LoL! If there are I'd love to know what you are looking at just for fun, but even if you can't tell me what it is I would still love to know if it is going to happen or not. Thanks so much! =)

You could say the changes to Trinity Force were a nerf to GP

They were a nerf, however apparently it was not enough of a change. He still has one of the top 10-15 winrates in the game, and has a higher and higher pickrate, and is seeing play in pro matches even after the trinity nerf for him.

I am hoping they can find a way to change him that hurts his teamfight a bit but keeps his ability to 1v1 and scrap atleast the same, if not a little better. It is already crazy hard to handle a split pusher or a laner as GP, where as winning random teamfights with 1 triple barrel is probably a little too easy
