Gangplank dominates the meta (16th most popular, 4.1% pick rate) and regularly clashes with Yasuo (2.8% pick rate). Understanding this common matchup forms the foundation of consistent gameplay for one of top lane's current powerhouses. Surprising upset: Despite Gangplank's higher tier rating, Yasuo wins 52.5% of encounters. This suggests Yasuo's kit specifically counters Gangplank's playstyle, overriding general meta strength - approach this matchup with extra caution. Every edge matters: In this tough matchup, the proven Arcane Comet + Manaflow Band combination (56.6% win rate) plus optimal itemization Trinity Force, The Collector, Lord Dominik's Regards, and Plated Steelcaps boosts your chances from 47.6% to 80.0% - potentially game-changing.
Farm your way back: Gangplank's superior farming (7.87 vs 6.91/min, 4th among Top) offers a comeback path. Focus on safe CSing and capitalize on your 0.96 CS/min natural advantage. Damage doesn't equal wins: Gangplank outputs more damage (828 vs 804/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 60th for Yasuo), but loses the matchup overall. High KDA without wins suggests difficulty translating individual advantages into victory conditions.

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. Yasuo deals mainly physical damage (86.71%), 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 23rd for Yasuo), which provides a stable gold advantage in extended games and allows faster access to key items. Meanwhile, their lower KDA (1.4 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 Yasuo 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.
