How to Use Gangplank Counter Data
This page lists the most useful Gangplank counters for the TOP role in League of Legends. Every entry comes from real ranked matchup data instead of guesswork. Right now, Kayle, Gwen, and Quinn are the lane matchups where Gangplank has his weakest win rates in the current data set. Kayle is the hardest of the three: Gangplank wins only 45.0% of 1,052 recorded games against her. In contrast, Heimerdinger, Kennen, and Yone are matchups where Gangplank does well, so they are safer picks to face.
Each card displays Gangplank’s win rate along with the number of games behind it. A matchup with tens of thousands of games deserves more trust than one with only a few hundred. The Easy, Even, and Hard labels come directly from those win rates, with anything under 48% marked Hard and anything over 52% marked Easy. They are meant to help you read the numbers quickly and are not a separate statistic. The data covers ranked games at Emerald and above in every region, is based on patch 16.13.1, and updates every 48 hours, so the figures shift as the meta changes. For the best items and runes, check the current Gangplank build page, or visit the Gangplank champion page for abilities and complete details.
