I think its more of if they can be played as a carry, since most anyone with AD can be played as bruiser. Tryndamere has the ability to deny death, has built in crits, and can also chase to get kills easily. Gangplank can chase, but he doesnt have anything to prevent him from getting focussed down quickly.
