Introduction


Reds -

Critical strike damage allows Gangplank to more easily kill champions late game.
Yellows-

Mana regeneration allows Gangplank to spam your

Blues -

Cooldown Reduction allows Gangplank to spam his

Offence - 21 points in offence. Gangplank is a damage dealer. Gives critical strike chance, bonus damage, bonus critical strike damage, and just overall bonus to damage output.
Defense - 9 points in defense. Gangplank is a squishy champion, free armor and magic resistance always helps. Also health regeneration is nice.
**If taking a solo lane, I would recommend 21/0/9 with points into the utility tree under awareness and utility mastery**

Rest of game
Ionian Boots of Lucidity - Cooldown reduction for
Parrrley spamming.
Youmuu's Ghostblade - Everything Gangplank wants, critical strike chance, cooldown reduction, damage, armor penetration, and an active which grants attack and movement speed.
Infinity Edge - Huge damage, Critical strike chance for
Parrrley, bonus damage on critical strikes for better
Parrrley.
Phantom Dancer - Critical strike chance for
Parrrley, and movement speed for mobility.
Frozen Mallet -
Parrrley gets slow proc, survivability, little damage.
Bloodthirster -
Parrrley gets lifesteal, huge damage.
This is just a generic list of items which work really well with Gangplank. Keep in mind that every game is different and different items maybe be needed in different orders.
Situational
Sword of the Occult - Gangplank is dominating early game and want more damage faster.
Guardian Angel - Need more survivability.
Banshee's Veil - If Remove Scurvy is not enough, the other team has a lot of crowd control.
Black Cleaver - If the other team is building armor.
Atma's Impaler - If you need survivability and more critical strike chance.
Warmog's Armor - I only recommend getting this if you have an
Atma's Impaler as it combos really well giving damage and survivability.
- Second
Infinity Edge - "Noob why you get 2 IE **insert more rage here**" Although you don't get the bonus damage to critical strike again, you do get a lot of damage and a great percentage added to your critical strike chance. This is a great choice for a 5th or 6th item.
- Second
Phantom Dancer - Gangplank is dominating and want more critical chance and movement speed.
- Second
Bloodthirster - You want more damage and lifesteal.
Here are just a few of the items I would recommend getting depending on the different in game situations you might encounter.
You need to realize that Gangplank is not a killing machine early game. I am not saying that it cannot happen, but you just should not expect it. Also another note, Gangplank can solo or duo. He is now strong in a duo lane due to the changes with
