Irelia or Gangplank

So, I'm fairly happy with my current roster, except that I'm missing a solid melee bruiser. Riven didn't do it for me, nor did any of the recent free to plays. The two champions that I've singled out are Irelia and Gangplank. I haven't actually seen an Irelia at all in s5, so i have no idea how good she is. Gangplank is....... interesting to me. If he gets ahead he wrecks, behind he's useless. A ton of people say he's really weak, but from the boards his fans just love playing him. Anyone have any insights on these 2 champions that could help decide?

ok... They are both fun. I enjoy both of them. The difference, Irelia is actually a strong pick. That is the difference. Gangplank is a weak champion. Despite how fun he is, you don't do more damage or tank more damage by having more fun. I would highly suggest going Irelia over GP.

I'm a Gangplank main and I love the champ but, were I you, I'd go for Irelia. GP is fun to play but he doesn't bring to a team what teams need. Irelia has hard CC, tankyness, mobility (a healthy kind, I'd say). GP, instead, lacks a definite identity and has strong backdraws whatever he tries to do. I'm looking forward to his upcoming rework, though :Q___
