as a gangplank player, at the start of my journey i wasn't very good with the barrels, but the endorphin rush from shooting a mage or a support for 500 damage made me stay and learn the ways of a pirate.
"That" champion for me is riven. I've played the game for 7 years and have at least a baseline understanding of every champion just from arams or messing around with friends. I have played 55 games of riven and have not one once.

Props to the editor for the Yokai watch Running from a demon theme or whatever it is, that brought a huge smile to my face. Have a day both Skooch and the Editor
Aye im glad to hear that!! i love using obscure game soundtracks solely for that reason. its super satisfying seeing your favourite niche gane get some love.
recently started binge watching all your old videos and way too many "can we talk about this" videos been enjoying all the content, keep it up Skooch :D
Mine just are champs that require me to have free camera movement. I just suck without camera Semi-locked, moving it independantly is impossible for me
Honestly same. I do not comprehend how people can have it fully unlocked and just center their character with their key and NOT let it go while casting skills. I just don't have the brain power to do that, pressing a key to center my champion would already require me to focus on it and I just can't aaoaolakfkfozjf9zf everything else would shut down. I just have it semi-locked and when needed I quickly unlock it fully and go back to lock it. This is fine.
hey skooch, keep up the great content, seeing the videos from your channel never fails to make me smile. watching your vids always help me when I have anxiety or stress. you're doing great and I hope to see more!
as a gp main i can say. this was entertaining at the very least also if u really wanna learn gp, all u do is farm for like 15-20 min dont fight be4 then
Yea... Noticing that is the only real option... Only time he feels good is very early when he is kinda on par, and later when he has enough dmg to actually make his stuff worth while. Even then it takes sooo much more effort to pull off and with how quick you die, I hardly ever have time to make anything work out with him ...
For the laning phase you should just use the q to secure the cannon/minions and start using the barrels once you level the q and have sheen as your furst item, and you can take advantage of your barrels move speed/ slow to avoid ganks or chase. You need to auto each minion once or twice if you can't one shot them yet.
Now I’m not the greatest gangplank in the world but if there’s one thing that I’ve noticed on Skooches gameplay in general and ESPECIALLY GANGPLANK is he has quickcast with Indicators on. Regular quickcast for me has improved my gameplay on Gangplank dramatically. I’m still ass at it but it makes a huge difference.
GP is one of my fave champs, I'm really proud that I'm proficient enough at him for that "highest elo person in your friend group" to ask me for advice on playing him.
A-Sol...I dont know if you either need six brains to play the giant space dragon or have a head thats as empty as space itself but I always feel like a total dunce when I touch him.
Pro-tip, if your fighitng a melee champ, always get E first. It's the ultimate catch-22. If they aim the barrel, you can auto it immediately after a full first second they hit it to blow it up instantly. If they don't aim the barrel, that means they are either aiming for CS which you can then punish them for free with flameblade, then hit the barrel, flameblade again. OR they are aiming for you, in which case once again, flameblade, run to barrel, auto it, flameblade them again. And run. Sauce: 7 Years Gangplank player. CUS ON THIS SHIP WE SETTLE THINGS ACCORDING TO DECREE; WHEN IN DOUBT OF PUNISHMENT, GANGPLANK IT SHALL BE.
You despising Vex makes sense because *Vex* by literal definition straight up means: "Make (someone) *feel annoyed,* frustrated, or worried, especially with trivial matters." So understandable
Skooch I’m not even kidding. You can probably Q spam someone out of lane for 95% of GP matches. And even if you int if you auto casters once then barrel Q, you will always get the bonus gold. GP is not difficult at all and with your ult, you can easily have pressure anywhere
i find this video quite surprising as when i was learning GP i still found it easy to consistently do well on him and thought the champion was pretty easy to understand
I was the Cho'Gath you fucking murdered at 13 minutes. I vaguely remember this game since it was awhile ago, but holy shit dude. It's an honor to be defiled in a video.
Try going tanky Gp top, build Trinity, Athennas chains, steel cap boots, titanic hydra, Steraks, Warmog. A lot of hp which turns into ad after steraks and it synergies with titanic pretty well. Dont focus on hiting E Q combos just use the barrels as a MS boost and passive reset. You become really annoying to deal with while still being a threat to squishies.
dang, must've been expensive to buy the rights for that Shantae music and the lest of the BGM for this video, since there is no credit of any of them in the video or the description! Very useful for anyone who wants to know what track is being played, appreciated, mr. editor.
As someone who loves playing the hardest champs I can find (I main ASol, Azir, and Gangplank) I can say gangplank is defiantly not the most difficult. Powder Keg is arguably the most difficult individual ability to use in League, the rest of his kit is so unreally strong. Because of just how much gold he generates, you’re almost never actually behind. Still fun to play though.
You never seen anybody complain more about AA ranges more than us gp mains. But I can’t complain cause we one shot people every game if you don’t shoot the barrel. Love the content skooch wish you the best on your next cursed champ game.
The barrels feel so weak because they just are, they have no bonus AD ratios, they start at 80 damage, and go up by just 25 per rank. they gave it 40% armor ignore but that really just makes it harder for tanks to disregard.
GP is a champion, I think people, think is hard. He's really not as hard as you think. To win lane. Press Q. To win the team fights. Set up a barrel in a bush, and then barrel combo to one shot enemy team. That's basic barrel combos. A skilled GP will know how to one part, barrels, weave passive autos in, and know how to use W to get out of CC at the correct time, space correctly with barrels. But after 10 games with with GP you should be able to get atleast some.of these things down. I personally think alot of people have trouble playing Sion correctly. He seems easy, but is actually alot harder than you think. He doesn't really have a single good matchup in lane. If you build tank, or get countered by ever anti-tank item possible, and if you go AD you are squishy as hell and you die. And so many people don't know how to play both Tank and AD.
It's fascinating how people perceive difficulty in different ways. I've always considered new GP something of an avarege difficulty, but boy give me Vladimir and, as simplistic as he may be, I just can't get it right.
In top lane: sit on your barrels like a b!tch and punish csing Connect 2 barrels through the top bush,shoot the first and connect the third to the second barrel wherever you want. This is called a triple part. Funnel in as many passives as you can, always pick ignite
After watching this, I'm thinking his difficulty with GP might be psychological. Like he's having issues cause he's already given up mentally, and preemptively believes he's going to lose.
Mine is gragas weirdly enough. The 1st game I played gragas jg and I got counter jungled the whole game by the whole enemy team. Since that day I just can't win using him even when I tried to really learn him.
@@itsyourguyskye I just have trouble with nailing the timing of his abilities, and since I don't get a lot of chances to play *anything but support* as a support main. And when I do, and I try to play Ekko, I go like 0/5.
I've always wanted to be good at Shaco. I started jungle as a Rengar main and then wanted to try Shaco. Love the art for him and his style of gameplay, but now I stick with Evelynn and Udyr
I got gankplank in an ARAM a while back and it was hilarious. Either the enemy team focused on taking out my barrels, and I STILL sometimes got them, or they focused on my team, and whoops there goes half their health lol
Plankgang main here. Don't play him mid, it's the worst lane to learn him on. Also use your barrels, like you don't even have to time them or anything, when you're in a fight just throw them down to cause fear, then eventually worry about barrel timings
im in your same spot. love this champ but hate myself for not be good with him and every time i play him i feed like an icecream man in a school parking area
my brain can not comprehend how to play katarina. like at all. ive read the move summarys i have, ive been stuck with her in aram and arurf, and im still yet to understand WHAT IM SUPPOSED TO DO
I love gp btw he has 2 ignites he can use at once technically 3 with reset and his passive one does more dmg than the summoner spell so if tou know how to procc it as much as possible you will bully em. Sadly he is more late game than kayle but ya get used to it and use the enemy underestimating you
I can't believe the bit about 400 k made me go "well, I guess I will subscribe to him, i like him a lot anyway" and then notice I'm already subscribed....
I have played most champions and can perform decently on them sometimes, with the exception of literally any assassin. Katarina, Talon, Akali, Evelynn & such, for some reason I am completely unable to play them, and playing against them is also the reason I avoid playing mid (and jungle for the most part, except when autofilled)
I can play difficult champs or those with complicated kits, but oh boy... Garen? no, neither Warwick, or other easy champs. Idk why, but every time I play a slightly easier champ my brain turns off.
*Skooch gets 4-manned at 5 minutes while playing GP*
Skooch: "What am I looking at?"
That's the Tobias Fate experience, Skooch.
It’s okay, mine is katarina. Played 8 games of her in norms and haven’t scored a solo kill yet in lane.

I play a decent amount of ganggang, and the thing I found playing him is that its all about control and head games. Making them think im going to last hit my barrel so they go for the auto on it, then you sprint them down place another barrel close the gap and just do crazy high burst on them
yes ganggang

Seeing you playing gp that badly reminded me that gp might be broken, but its still difficult to learn and play
as a gangplank player, at the start of my journey i wasn't very good with the barrels, but the endorphin rush from shooting a mage or a support for 500 damage made me stay and learn the ways of a pirate.
Even if ypu are shit with barrels you aill hit at least one in a teamfight, and that will result in an easy win
"That" champion for me is riven. I've played the game for 7 years and have at least a baseline understanding of every champion just from arams or messing around with friends. I have played 55 games of riven and have not one once.
Same here, I just can't figure out their Q the most... some how... I don't know- It's so simple on paper. just never clicks.
It's rumble for me. I think they're really fun and tried SO hard to figure them out. The only game I won I was carried hard
Careful now. You don't want the mains to rag on how "hard and complicated" their champion is.
As a person that loved this champ so much, I committed 200 games to being ok enough to played ranked, and am now a GP mid one trick this vibes with me hard
Am I allowed more than one boogeyman champ?
