I didn't play him because he was bad, but because everyone thought he was bad. I played him for 3 years and did extremely well most of the time. I wouldn't come here to say nonsenses about old Gangplank, I know what i'm talking about. Everyone have their own opinions anyway, but there are somethings that simply aren't true. He was indeed released as a melee carry, but after his potential for this role was nerfed, he became an utility bruiser and did very well that way. With a Trinity Force, he could kill carries that were on the same level as him, like any other bruiser is supposed to do. I have to agree that a non-AD scaling on a damage-over-time passive, a team-buffing E that offered small stats and a AP scaling damage-over-time ultimate were weak and nonsense for a melee AD carry. But for a utility DPS bruiser, his kit was more than enough. No surprise I never saw a Critplank carrying a game, but saw Bruiserplank destroying a back line.
