So GP's personality is going to be updated with his lore... can it match better his ingame feeling?

GP's lore right now portrays him as the most bloodthirsty and merciless pirate, while when you play him you're that trollsy guy who runs around 2fast5u and crits like a madman while eating oranges and being k. If you're bloodrhisrty, you go play Riven or Vayne. GP's lore should make him a bit more of a fun person to be around (not much, still a saltwater scourge, but with a few humorous sides) to match his playerbase and playstyle.

If Tahm has anything to say about Gangplanks future lore, I say he will stay a bloodthirsty merciless pirate. Not sure how they will do with the oranges....maybe make them blood oranges?

Considering on Butcher's Bridge you toss oranges, I don't think they're going anywhere or changing in the least. Might give a better explanation as to why he has them though.

Actually, Tahm says "Your attempt to be monstrous." It suggests that GP isn't actually bloodthirsty but would like others to believe so.

"is as successful as your dictature" -> Veigar, not GP. Or, if it is a compliment, Swain.

The taunt goes to enemy gp, confirmed. It's probably tahm stirring up shit though.

Its fairly easy to tell since all the responses are in alphabetical order.

It appears Tahm Kench quotes towards GP are:

"Your attempts at being monstrous are as successful as your dictatorship"

"You're man with troubles, I have solutions"

Finn quote:

"Cap't...I'll be all paid up by the end of the week...I promise!"

Bubs quote:

"Oh hello! You must be a fellow captain... We should trade notes."

Tahm is insulting him so it works.

Not really. The taunt actually implies he's all bark no bite.

Its a taunt, people usually say shit in those to get you mad.

A taunt is only trully effective if there's either some element of truth to it or the person receiving the taunt is very self-conscious about themselves.

Or is a big fat lie and they cant stand it.

Pretty worried that they'll make him into some sort of 2serious psychopath. I dunno, I think GP would work better as this really jolly, happy, kinda goofy man that you're not sure you can trust, like at any second he can just go "fuck it" and throw you to the sharks, but never demonstrating any anger or sadism from it, he just finds it funny.

Riot said when they update him they are going to change him to be more like his lore says and less like a piratey pirate who is all the cliches of a pirate thrown together.

A pity for this instead of the contrary.

Considering I don't get any feeling from him at the moment... it can only get better? (dare we hope...) Needs better lore, base skin, etc. Looks more like a merchant with a few tatters than a pirate. Don't get a feeling that he's a pirate.
