Hello Community,

my nickname is Awesome Loschky. I am from Germany and my english is not the best so I hope you bear with me.
I prefer to play champions like Irelia, Gangplank, Warwick or Jax. As a consequence I have to play toplane sometimes :D. My probleme ,especially with Gangplank, is to play against champions like Lee Sin, Cho'gath, Malphite, Dr. Mundo or other Champions with a huge amount of TP or Armor. I dont know what I have to do. Should I buy with Gangplank items like Madreds' Razor or Last Whisper early in the game? Should I focus items like Frozen Mallet and Atma's Impaler to be also tanky?. But what is with the crit chance and dmg? I mustn't forget it with GP or not?.

In general I use this guide (http://www.mobafire.com/league-of-legends/build/gangplank-wait-where-did-their-health-go-full-o-facts-98004#chapter8) as a guideline, but i like to exchange the order. For example Avarice Blade-> Zeal -> Sheen -> Shoes -> Cloak of agility -> Infinity Edge -> Phantom Dancer / Finish Trinity -> Last Whisper if needed in late game -> Youmuus Ghostblade


I hope you can help me,
Greetings Awesome Loschky

When playing against tanks top lane, you want to go tanky. Get Warmog's Armor combined with Atma's Impaler. Either get Frozen Mallet or Trinity Force, but not both. Best current boots on Gangplank are Ionian Boots of Lucidity or Ninja Tabi. He doesn't need Mercury's Treads because he has oranges. Don't go over agressive. Let your jungler gank and kill his wards with your own Vision Wards.

Start with Boots and 4 HP Pots (get the 4th one by standing at the far end on the fountain and waiting for 15 gold after minions spawn.)
I recommend getting an early Philosopher's Stone and/or Heart of Gold.
When playing against those strong armor guys, get a Warmog's Armor.
Finish your boots.
Get a Trinity Force or Frozen Mallet.
After that, get Atma's Impaler.
If you want, get Infinity Edge.
Get a defensive item last (recommended Guardian Angel.)
Thanks to Xiron and ProAsylum (Ignition) for the amazing signatures!
If I helped out with constructive criticsm, I would appreciate a +rep
