Quick Intro
English is not my native language. Feel free to correct me if you find any mistakes(I believe there are TONS of mistakes in it lol) from this guides
Gangplank is an awesome champion because of his global ultimate, strong early game sustaining ability and he can also harass quite well in lane. He is by far one of the most irritating champion to lane against.
My main role is solo top and I know how to play almost every solo top champion. I've solo top for over 80% of my ranked game. As solo top is one of the most decisive role in the game, so you have to do extremely well to directly/indirectly carry your team to victory. In this guide, I will try to tell you guys how to solo top as Gangplank in ran..... oh wait, I mean how to win a ranked game with him EASILY.

The skill sequence provided on the top is the skill sequence that I've normally used. However you can always go for different skill sequences based on situation.
After level 6,
If you are farming well and enemy champion don't bother to harass you, max

If enemy champion is harassing you violently, max

If you want to take down enemy's tower quickly, max

Starting items:
philosopher's stone
x1: This is what I normally start with. Start with this item enables you to get a quick philosopher's stone and therefore maximizing its unique passive.
x5: Against some ad/ad bruiser champion that can harass strongly.
x4: Another option.
Core laning items:
sight ward: vs ad/ad bruisers
x2
sight ward: vs ap/ap bruisers
Items you want to consider
At 2k HP it gives 40 damage. At 3k HP it gives 60 damage. Amazing item for ad bruisers with HP.
Gives you over 1k HP. Too OP.
Get one of this, AP champ can't kill you easily. And the movement speed is cool.
Plenty amount of armor. Awesome unique active.
This item procs with your
Parrrley, and 150% bonus damage. Huehuehue
Situational items:
After your sixth item:

Situational items:








After your sixth item:




- Farm your lane.
- Try to get every single minion in your lane so you can get as much gold as you can.
- Don't use
Parrrley to last hit before u get philosopher's stone. Use
Parrrley to harass your opponent
- Don't auto-attack. If you auto-attack, you will push your lane and this will probably place you in a more dangerous position because you will be more vulnerable to ganks.
- Have a ward or two at tribrush or river.
