Who Wins
- Gangplank wins pre-6 through superior range and Q poke while you lack gap-closing tools.
- Post-6 you can win all-ins if you successfully engage with R slow into W fling, as his barrel combos become harder to execute in close combat.
How to Trade
- Your best trades involve using minions to close distance, then W fling into E slow while your Q poison deals damage as you disengage.
- Avoid extended trades where he can kite you with Q spam and barrel slows.
Wave Control
- Push waves hard with Q to force Gangplank under tower where his barrel setups are limited and he struggles to CS effectively.
- Maintain constant pressure to prevent him from freely scaling and setting up barrel zones.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Never chase Gangplank through his barrel setups or fight in areas where he has pre-placed barrels.
- Getting hit by a triple barrel combo while slowed will chunk you heavily and potentially set up his team for follow-up damage.
