Playing as Gangplank

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Chain your kegs

    Build a chain with Powder Keg (E): detonate the keg farthest from your opponent, and each keg whose area touches the previous one explodes too, all the way to them.

  2. Last-hit with Parrrley

    Last-hit minions and pop kegs with Parrrley (Q): a kill with the shot gives bonus gold, and so does a kill from a keg it sets off.

  3. Save your W for CC

    Save Remove Scurvy (W) for a key CC rather than for healing: it cleanses all CC on you, on a 22 to 14 second cooldown.

  4. Bombard other fights

    Cast Cannon Barrage (R) anywhere on the map to help a fight or cover an objective: each wave of cannonballs slows and damages in the area.

Playing against Pantheon

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Trade after his Shield Vault

    Take a trade when Shield Vault (W) is on cooldown: it's his only spell to leap onto you and stun you, on a 13 to 9 second cooldown.

  2. Go around his Aegis

    During Aegis Assault (E), go around him or wait it out: he ignores damage from the front, except from towers.

  3. Back before you get too low

    Back before your health gets too low against him: below a health threshold, Comet Spear (Q) deals much more damage.

  4. Ping when he leaves lane

    Ping your team as soon as he disappears from lane: Grand Starfall (R) lands him from long range, after a short delay that gives you time to get away.

  5. Drag the game out

    If you survive his first minutes, play for time: Pantheon looks to get ahead early through his trades and roams.
