Who Wins
- You lose levels 1-3 to Gangplank's Q poke and barrel control, lacking gap closers to punish him effectively.
- At level 6, you gain significant kill pressure with R safety net, allowing aggressive Q-E-W combos.
How to Trade
- Your best trading involves Q through minions to hit Gangplank, then E forward only if Q lands both passes for passive proc.
- Always save W for disengage or setup, never use it for waveclear in lane.
Wave Control
- Focus on shoving waves with Q to match Gangplank's push, then look for roam timers or jungle skirmishes.
- Avoid freezing as Gangplank will poke you out with Q while you can't effectively trade back.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Never E forward without Q setup or R available, as Gangplank can barrel combo you during your animation.
- Don't use R aggressively early game since Gangplank's poke damage will force you to use it defensively.
