#Gangplank Gangplank

Gangplank is getting a complete overhaul of his kit along with new spell icons and a visual update.

####This rework isn’t driven by a concern for power levels. Instead, like a lot of our reworks, it’s focused on delivering a unique, cohesive champion theme. Gangplanks theme is the typical pirate + oranges. He loots, shoots, cuts, kills and eats his majestic oranges. Along side his ship, shooting from afar, and the moral he gives (Go Teemo ! You can do it !) to his team, he is supposed to deliver the full pirate package. Sadly, though, this package doesn't fit so well into the League's champion-pool. You know, the one Jarven and Nami made, and the one they want 50 friggin dollars entry fee for.
####But now ! Now that he loots even more than before, he shall pay his way into that champion pool ! And it shall be awesome !

####Passive - Yarr ! I'm a mighty pirate !

GROG SOAKED BLADE :: : Gangplank's basic attacks apply a poison, slowing movement speed by 7% and dealing between 4 and 21 magic damage each second for 3 seconds
EFFECT :: : Stacks up to 3 times

ME AND ME' CREW ! :: : Gangplank receives 4% reduced damage per nearby ally champion
EFFECT :: : This requires at least 1 nearby ally champion to be active ; maximum 20% reduced damage
EFFECT :: : 1100 Range

**Q - Parley **


TOGGLE - PASSIVE :: : Whenever Gangplank attacks a target outside of his basic attack range, he shoots the target instead. After he shoots a target he has a 50% chance of his pistol getting jammed. If that happens he can't shoot for 6 seconds.
EFFECT :: : Jamming's duration is affected by cooldown reduction; for every 2% critical strike chance you have, the chance of jamming is reduced by 1%
RANGE :: : 425/450/475/500/525

W - Of Bombs and Oranges (or) Have some Oranges !


ON CAST :: : Gangplank throws a mixture of 50% orange-painted bombs and 50% oranges at a ground-targeted location.
ENEMIES HIT :: : Enemies are hit by the orange-painted bombs and take 80/120/160/180 (+0,7 total attack damage) physical damage.
ALLIES HIT :: : Allies may eat the tasteful oranges and are healed for 65/80/65/110/125 (+0,4 ability power).
COOLDOWN :: : 13 seconds
RANGE :: : 650
RADIUS :: : 275
MANA COST :: : 65 Mana

######Some whisper it's 100% orange-painted bombs....

E - Black Flag


ON CAST :: : Gangplank sets a ground-targeted flag at a target location, that reveals the area for 3 seconds. Enemies inside gain a 'Black Flag' debuff above their heads ( a waving black flag + skeleton head and swords - without pole - and a small blue circle around them on the floor) for 6 seconds.
BLACK FLAG DEBUFF :: : Nearby enemy champions gain 10/15/20/25/30 bonus movement speed. If this unit is slain while 'Black Flag' is active, the champion who slayed this unit gains extra gold and 20/30/40/50/60 movement speed for 2 seconds.
BONUS GOLD :: : Minions = 2 ; Bigger Minions = 4 ; Monsters = 1 ; Bigger Monsters = 6 ;
Champions = 15

COOLDOWN :: : 23/21/19/17/15 seconds
MANA COST :: : *50/55/60/65/70 *
RANGE :: : 1000
RADIUS :: : 550 (original Black Flag) ; 200 (Black Flag debuff)

####R - Cannon Barrage

Only one change made :
EFFECT :: : Enemies affected by the 'Black Flag' debuff are prioritised by cannonballs.

I hope you liked it. I tried imitating the patch notes, though I don't think it looks as good as it does there, sadly.

####What to do you think of the rework overall ? Please leave feedback in the comments and upvote if you liked it :D

I understand that you want to emphasize your text. But the blockquotes made me think you're quoting an external resource.

In Black Flag, the mana cost you have it listed as seconds. Shouldn't the Q have a mana cost? Seems so easily abusable lol Otherwise some great ideas going on here.

I think your rework is good but I'm not sure GP needs a rework. Really, I think he just needs some number adjustments. In particular, I would like to see riot improve his team buff. This way, he could be a utility top champion.

His E is a bit confusing. It's only useful for melee champions, because of the small aura range, and it can be abused in many ways. For example : Support GP, the adc gets much more gold. And his W has a nice concepts, but the in-game feature is a bit boring...
