I am sure Gangplank survived an encounter with Kindred, as per lamb's taunt to Gangplank, "Rushing to meet us again, I see," and wolf's taunt to Gangplank, "Have we met before."

Even if he was to have not forcibly denied death through brute force, I'm persuaded that Kindred's taunts towards Gangplank implies that death itself can be denied if conditions allow. I mean, Kindred wouldn't show their faces to Gangplank just for fun, would they? I believe Gangplank also having been deemed 'dead' (when he was disabled by Riot from all gamemodes after the rework) during the time before Kindred's release also correlates to this.
