Gangplank, the Saltwater Scourge, is a fearsome pirate captain who roams the high seas in search of treasure and glory. With his iconic skin, Captain Gangplank, he takes on a more commanding and authoritative appearance, embodying the true essence of a pirate captain.

Captain Gangplank is a legendary skin that was released on August 5, 2015, as part of the Bilgewater: Burning Tides event. This event introduced a new storyline to the League of Legends universe, centered around the pirate-infested city of Bilgewater. Gangplank, being one of the most notorious pirates in the game, received this special skin to commemorate his role in the event.

The Captain Gangplank skin transforms the Saltwater Scourge into a formidable pirate captain, complete with a regal captain's hat, a luxurious red coat adorned with gold trimmings, and a menacing cutlass. The skin also features unique visual and sound effects, giving Gangplank a more commanding presence on the battlefield.

As a pirate captain, Gangplank is known for his ruthless nature and his ability to command his crew with an iron fist. He is a melee champion who excels at dealing damage from a distance and disrupting enemy formations. With his Q ability, Parrrley, Gangplank shoots a bullet from his pistol, dealing bonus damage and applying on-hit effects. His W ability, Remove Scurvy, allows him to cleanse himself of crowd control effects and heal a portion of his missing health. Gangplank's E ability, Powder Keg, places barrels on the ground that can be detonated to deal area of effect damage and slow enemies. Finally, his ultimate ability, Cannon Barrage, calls down a barrage of cannonballs from his ship, damaging and slowing enemies in a large area.

Gangplank's story in the League of Legends universe is a tale of treachery, revenge, and redemption. Once the ruler of Bilgewater, Gangplank was overthrown by his own crew and left for dead. However, he managed to survive and returned to reclaim his throne, seeking vengeance on those who betrayed him. With his newfound power and the support of his loyal crew, Gangplank became a force to be reckoned with in Bilgewater.

In the game, Gangplank is a versatile champion who can be played in multiple roles, including top lane and mid lane. His high damage output and crowd control abilities make him a formidable opponent in team fights, while his global ultimate allows him to assist his teammates from anywhere on the map. However, Gangplank's lack of mobility and vulnerability to crowd control effects can make him an easy target if caught out of position.
