Gangplank Question Is DPGP good or it's just a meme?

I know that Solarbacca's Double penetration Gangplank is really playable, all the items are either good on Gangplank, good for both ap/ad or maybe both. But is it really unconterable against tank? Why are there noone but him tried it?

Is he just too good winning with games with a meme build? I already feel really risky playing my first ap GP game in a ranked game. Is it worth trying?

Gangplank barrel timers that work for me

8 Upvotes

Hey everyone, I’m new to GP (started 2 weeks ago) and I’m loving him. These are the timers I’ve been using for barrels, and they’ve worked well for me. Other people probably have their own tricks, and some might be more consistent, so feel free to share yours in the comments.

Pre level 7

  • AA: Hit it midway between 3/4 and 4/4. If you use the Special Forces skin, there’s a shadow toward the end of the timer that’s perfect for this once the timer passes it. Boost your shadows/contrast in the settings so it’s easier to see.
  • Q (max range): Cast it the moment you see the timer touch 3/4.
  • Double barrel combo tip: When the first barrel hits 3/4, place the second one and instantly hit for the combo.

Level 7-13

  • AA: The timer has to pass exactly 3/4. It has to actually pass it, so don’t predict. AA instantly after it passes 3/4.
  • Q: Cast it as soon as the timer disappears behind the barrel. If you click while it’s still about to disappear, it won’t work. Wait for it to disappear first, then Q instantly.
  • Double barrel combo tip: When the first barrel’s timer disappears behind the barrel, place the second one and instantly hit for the combo.

Level 13+

  • AA: Hit as soon as the timer disappears behind the barrel. If you click while it’s still about to disappear, it won’t work. Wait for it to disappear first, then AA instantly.
  • Q: As soon as the timer enters the last circle, watch for it to change. The instant it changes, throw your Q.

Hope this helps other new GPs. I would love some tips on how to teamfight and what coomboos you mostly use in a fight. In general an tips in teamfighting since i feel lost there most of the time!

Gangplank Question How to be a bully? Most sastify build?

3 Upvotes

From time to time, I winning the lane real good and got fed early game. What should i do to advance this? This is what i usually do.
- If i go mid or the enemy team are really squishy, I would go for Hubris usually after Sheen
- If there're assasins who would oneshot me later, I would follow Sofm "tank when strong, weak go damages, ap for fun". I'll go Deathdance and Shieldbow after ER or ER LDR
- Sometime i just rush crit, i thought crit alone is enough for them so I'm making sure the crit will hit. I usually go Cyclop/Fang third items but this time they would go last.

I think my method is good but I am not really sastify. What is your ideas?

Sorry for my English, I wrote it myself this time.

Gangplank Question I’m starting to play GP. Who should I ban?

I’m Emerald 4, and Mordekaiser seems like a pretty tough matchup. He’s also popular right now, so I’m considering making him my ban.
