Gangplank

Fighter

As unpredictable as he is brutal, the dethroned reaver king Gangplank is feared far and wide.

Strengths

  • Parrrley applies On Hit effects like Frozen Mallet or Black Cleaver.
  • Paying attention to low-health enemies on the map can land you a surprise kill with Cannon Barrage.
  • Try placing Cannon Barrage on the path of escape to cut off fleeing enemies.

Abilities

  • Passive · Trial by Fire — Every few seconds, Gangplank's melee strike will set his opponent on fire.
  • Q · Parrrley — Shoots target, plundering Gold for each enemy unit killed.
  • W · Remove Scurvy — Eats citrus to cure crowd control effects and restore Health.
  • E · Powder Keg — Gangplank uncovers a powder keg at target location. If he attacks it, it explodes, spreading the attack's damage to enemies in the area, slowing them.
  • Ultimate · Cannon Barrage — Gangplank signals his ship to bombard an area, slowing and damaging enemies.

Team Composition

A suggested 5-lane lineup built around Gangplank, based on hero partnerships and role synergy — not win rate.
