Gangplank

Asked by GarnetGaming on April 6, 2021

Is Gangplank still viable with the crit item changes?

Still strong in all stages of the game. Heavily underrated top laner.

Easily. He's a powerful lane bully with lots of map agency as well as high damage. The changes to crit items in 11.7 (as I assume you are referring to) are relatively minor and easily handled by Gangplank. At least in my opinion.

Okay! Any recommendations for builds?

I recommend building Trinity Force -> Ravenous Hydra -> Steraks Gage but if they have high healing and also sheilding going for serpent's fang and chempunk chainsaw is actually great since you change a lot in the game with those two items which also sit with gangplank nicely (after trinity force of course)If you are going with this build in your games I recommend trying zhonya's after those 3 items, trust me it's better than you could ever imagine! You can check out a guide on gangplank I recently made if you are interested in his builds and why he builds certain items.

To be honest I'm not a top laner, nor a GP player. I simply know this from watching competitive play and ranked. However the build I see most often is something along the lines of Essence Reaver -> Immortal Shieldbow -> Infinity Edge. Provides high damage with a nice liver saver from Shieldbow. Hope that helps!
