Statistical Matchup Analysis

Gangplank dominates the meta (16th most popular, 4.1% pick rate) and regularly clashes with Urgot (2.8% pick rate). Understanding this common matchup forms the foundation of consistent gameplay for one of top lane's current powerhouses. Every edge matters: In this tough matchup, the proven Fleet Footwork + Presence of Mind combination (50.3% win rate) plus optimal itemization Trinity Force, Mortal Reminder, Infinity Edge, and Plated Steelcaps boosts your chances from 47.4% to 74.6% - potentially game-changing.

Farm your way back: Gangplank's superior farming (7.87 vs 6.25/min, 4th among Top) offers a comeback path. Focus on safe CSing and capitalize on your 1.62 CS/min natural advantage. Damage doesn't equal wins: Gangplank outputs more damage (828 vs 745/min, 2nd place) but still loses the matchup. The issue likely lies in survivability, mobility, or damage timing rather than raw output. Strong individual performance: Gangplank maintains better KDA (2.10, 10th place vs 15th for Urgot), but loses the matchup overall. High KDA without wins suggests difficulty translating individual advantages into victory conditions.

How to Beat Urgot as Gangplank (Top)

Difficult matchup requiring deep understanding of game mechanics and flawless execution. Patience and proper macro play are the keys to victory in this confrontation.

Except for rare builds, Gangplank deals physical damage. Focus on eliminating enemy carries. Urgot deals mainly physical damage (90.11%), additional items against this damage type may be required against snowballing or aggressive play.

An important advantage of Gangplank is higher farming statistics (ranked 4th among role champions) (versus 46th for Urgot), which provides a stable gold advantage in extended games and allows faster access to key items. Meanwhile, their lower KDA (2.0 versus 2.1) suggests they are less effective in team fights.

Key aspects of the Gangplank Top versus Urgot Top matchup

In this difficult confrontation, it is critically important for the Gangplank player to avoid attempts to force trades and all-ins with the Urgot player, as the matchup requires a patient and calculated approach. Extended trades without clear tactical advantage often lead to unfavorable consequences, and ignoring opportunities to receive team support can be a fatal mistake for game progression.

    Gangplank tips:

    • Parrrley applies On Hit effects like Frozen Mallet or Black Cleaver.
    • Paying attention to low-health enemies on the map can land you a surprise kill with Cannon Barrage.
    • Try placing Cannon Barrage on the path of escape to cut off fleeing enemies.

    Playing Against Urgot

    • Urgot relies heavily on blasting opponents with his legs, which have their own cooldowns and only detonate when he attacks in the direction they are facing. Avoid getting hit by multiple.
    • Urgot can deal and absorb tremendous amounts of damage with Purge, but slows himself while firing.
    • If you are struck by Fear Beyond Death, do your best to avoid falling below the execution threshold (25% of your Maximum Health) until the effect times out.
