Your core build provides strong damage output. Against tanky counter picks, consider penetration items or percentage-based damage from your situational options to maintain kill pressure. Adapt your final build slots with items like Mortal Reminder or Lord Dominik's Regards based on which counter champions you're facing and their itemization patterns. Monitor enemy builds and adjust accordingly for optimal Gangplank performance.
