Tips Against Gangplank in Top Lane Tips Provided by MOBAFire Guide Authors

Deddy says “Idealmente, Gangplank devasta Jax, ma questo champion è così difficile che sotto al challenger ci sta molto spazio per punirlo. Rimane comunque un matchup difficile, anche perchè GP guadagna tantissimo gold passivamente. GP deve giocare il matchup tenendosi SEMPRE un barile [[powder keg]] sotto i piedi, continuarci a pokare con Q [[Parrrley]] e barili, e rimettere barile sotto i piedi. Se per qualsiasi motivo sta senza barili, possiamo punirlo. Ricordatevi che la vostra E para anche la sua Q, e che possiamo distruggere i suoi barili (se ci aregge). Considerate anche che la sua E [[Remove Scurvy]] lo liberà dal nostro stun. Rune: Grasp Item: Dshield”
EnriqueR says “Take Grasp. He is very weak until he gets his sheen. Try to abuse him as much as you can early game. You can use you E to auto reset on the barrel to catch him off guard.”

brunaisse99 says “There is nothing we can do against his damage, is either physical or true. Is slow can be predicted tho. Also, his W is CC cleanse which is a natural counter to us. Not to mention the fact that he is also ranged. One of the worst matchups.”

Loocalol says “Runes: Phase rush/Comet Early: Q start Tips: Insanely free matchup if you don't eat all his barrels. At some point when you hit a Q, you can ult him into you and full combo him. Make sure he doesn't just one shot waves and gets free resets.”

liucan says “Beware of barrels and Passive reset dmg, yeah he can destun himself with oranges but u still win, u can E barrels to stop dmg, u can go barrier if u feel uncomfy, but other sums are better.”

Puyo says “Quando ele te pokear com o Q, use o E para cima dele, ele vai ficar em choque porque normalmente as pessoas usam pra trás. Daí é só combar ele e ggwp rip gp.”

Nithril says “He'll W your Q, always have the push against you, and will kill you whenever but he is also squishier than most top laners, ask for ganks or lay down to farm and roams”
Quinn Top Lane Guide for 2025 by Nithril | Quinn Player
BigBallsLarry says “Not easy, but doable. Take dshield with second wind and try to survive lane, dont let him get free Q's off (play around your minions) but DONT trade back as he will barrel you and run away with 0 counterplay. You can run him down if he messes up or post ravenous with tabis. Parry his barrel or passive auto if possible. If you Q into him and destroy his barrel with AA cancel you can suprise him and instant all-in him. You can also play around bushes and your Q to deny him Q grasp procs and barrel hits. If he puts down a ward you can destroy it with aa>q>aa.”
parker3n9 says “This matchup is relatively easy in my opinion. While Gangplank does scale well into the late game, you have solid kill threat in the lane and should be able to beat him on barrels if you’re careful and proactive. Once you have Rylai’s Crystal Scepter, you can confidently all-in with your ultimate and come out on top in extended trades. Focus on consistent harassment to keep him pressured and deny his scaling as much as possible. Recommended Runes: Grasp of the Undying or Aery Summoner Spells: Flash and Teleport or Ghost and Teleport (choose based on the rest of the enemy team’s composition)”
Skaarlschloch says “https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oE4MbvKbixk Go FullAggro Setup with Ignite. Start E lv.1 if he places barrel on top of him you can bait that youll jump on him a couple times and then actually jump on him and instanly auto the barrel 90% of GPs wont react to it. Then you just beat him down. With ignite you can often kill him early somehow. Definitely a favoured matchup for you as long as you go full Aggro”
