For Gangplank's runes, you'll want to prioritize Attack Damage and defensive stats. Take Attack Damage Marks and Attack Damage Quintessences to increase your damage.
For your defensive runes, choose Armor Seals to reduce damage from AD champions and minions during the laning phase, and Magic Resist Glyphs to provide protection against AP damage throughout the game.

When playing Gangplank, you should prioritize the Defense tree to complement his bruiser playstyle. The bonus Health, Armor, Magic Resist, and damage reduction make him much harder to take down while allowing him to stay in fights longer.
For your secondary tree, Offense is the best choice, as the remaining points provide valuable Attack Damage, Armor Penetration, and Cooldown Reduction. These stats increase Gangplank's overall damage and allow him to use Parrrley more frequently throughout the game.
Cannon Barrage (R) has random cannonballs instead of consistent AOE damage
Raise Morale (E) grants move speed and attack damage both passively and upon activation
Parrrley (Q) grants gold (no more silver serpents)Our experts are currently testing LoL Classic builds for Gangplank on the PBE.
Check back often as we make updates based on PBE changes and as the Classic meta develops!
Gangplank wants to farm safely while generating extra gold by last hitting with Q. Constantly use Q to last hit whenever possible, but don't ignore opportunities to poke your lane opponent at the same time.
Your sustain from W makes it difficult for you to be bullied out of lane, especially against crowd control champions. Focus on reaching your first damage item or component before taking extended fights.
Once level 6 arrives, use your ultimate to influence other lanes even while remaining in lane yourself.
