Who Wins

  • At level 6, you gain kill pressure with your full combo and ultimate safety net, making you the stronger duelist.

How to Trade

  • You should look for short trades using E-Q-auto then immediately backing off with your E return.
  • Avoid extended trades where Gangplank can proc multiple passive burns and land barrel combos on you.

Wave Control

  • You want to push early waves to get level advantages and roam opportunities since you can't effectively trade in lane.
  • Focus on clearing waves quickly with Q and looking for teleport plays or jungle skirmishes.

Mistakes to Avoid

  • You must avoid staying in lane with low health against Gangplank's ultimate global pressure.
  • Don't greedily chase kills without your ultimate up, as Gangplank's barrel combos can turn fights instantly.
