Gangplank Build Guide (Top)

Gangplank plays a farming lane better than almost anyone: Parrrley crits for gold and damage, Remove Scurvy eats the crowd control that would punish it, and Cannon Barrage flips fights across the whole map.

  • Mark of Attack Damage9x Mark of Attack Damage (+1 Attack Damage)
  • Seal of Armor9x Seal of Armor (+1 Armor)
  • Glyph of Scaling Magic Resist9x Glyph of Scaling Magic Resist (+0.2 Magic Resist per level (+3.6 at champion level 18))
  • Quintessence of Attack Damage3x Quintessence of Attack Damage (+2.25 Attack Damage)

Attack damage marks and quints power Parrrley from level one; armor and scaling magic resist keep the trades and the mid game honest.
