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. Meanwhile, Vladimir deals primarily magic damage (91.64%), additional magic resistance may be required.
An important advantage of Gangplank is higher farming statistics (ranked 4th among role champions) (versus 8th for Vladimir), 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.
In this difficult confrontation, it is critically important for the Gangplank player to avoid attempts to force trades and all-ins with the Vladimir 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.
