How to play

General

  1. As Gangplank playing Bruiser build - you need ot adapt to an enemy team and to the game! Enemy team heavy on AP? Buy MR. Are they heavy on AD? Buy Armor. You need some damage? Well buy that.
  2. Remember to consume your Grasp of the Undying procs!

Tips and Tricks

Champion

  1. Your Ultimate upgrade order:
    • Fire at Will (more waves).
    • Death's Daughter (true damage).
    • Raise Morale (bonus movement speed).
  2. Your Parrrley (Q) count as ranged attack, which means some runes and items will give you an effect as if you were ranged champion. For example: Grasp of the Undying - less heal, less Health, less dmg. Hubris - less ad. First Strike - less gold.

Riot

  1. Parrrley applies On Hit effects like Frozen Mallet or Black Cleaver.
  2. Paying attention to low-health enemies on the map can land you a surprise kill with Cannon Barrage.
