How to play Gangplank in Patch 26.20, built from ranked games: power spikes, the lane plan, how leads convert, and the habits that separate Gangplank wins from losses.
Gangplank Mid and Late Game
What Gangplank does better or worse than other champions after laning, from this patch's ranked games — percentiles where 100 is the highest of every champion.
Play to these strengths
- Gangplank is a main damage source (95/100): stay alive and in range for the whole fight rather than diving first.
- Gangplank farms well (percentile 95): keep catching side waves between fights.
- Side-lane pressure pays: Gangplank rates 77/100 for damage to buildings. Push a side wave while the team holds mid.
Mistakes to avoid
- Vision is a weak spot (14/100): buy Control Wards and sweep before you face-check.
Playing Gangplank
- 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.
Playing Against Gangplank
- Parrrley deals a high amount of physical damage. Items that grant Armor can help if an enemy Gangplank is doing well.
- Once Gangplank reaches level 6, watch out for his global-range ultimate, Cannon Barrage!
