Who Wins
- You lose pre-6 to Gangplank's Q poke and sustain, lacking reliable engage tools to punish his range advantage.
- Post-6 you win all-ins with R execute and your scaling tankiness from feast stacks.
How to Trade
- Your best trading involves landing Q knockup into W silence and E follow-up, but only when Gangplank is overextended or mispositions.
- Focus on short burst trades rather than extended fights where he can kite you.
Wave Control
- You want to farm safely and let waves push toward you, using Q to clear waves when necessary while avoiding Gangplank's poke.
- Focus on scaling through CS and avoiding unnecessary trades until you have items and levels.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't chase Gangplank through his barrels or into unwarded areas where he can kite you indefinitely.
- Avoid using Q predictably for wave clear when he can easily sidestep and punish with free poke.
