I would consider this a medium/hard match up for Camille. Gangplank seems to scale too well especially with Kleptomancy
*Patch 8.6 Introduced a new rune for bruisers called "Conqueror" Don't have enough experience with this rune or any data to place it in the guides, you'll have to try it out yourself and see how it works*
- Arcane Comet Arcane Comet is a really good choice in this match up, gives a strong poke so you can match Gangplank's harass and stands out as an overall good rune for Camille. My personal favorite option.
- Aftershock Aftershock even tho it was great for this match up just got nerfed in patch 8.5. It's cooldown was almost doubled and I find it pretty sad. Haven't tested it yet but I think this nerf really destroys your early game trades by extending the window where you don't want to fight.
- Phase Rush Phase Rush helps but it's not optimal in this match up. Might be preference choice if someone wants to get rid of GP's barrel/ult slow.
- Electrocute Gangplank is hard to burst down because of his oranges healing him for ~150-200 health. Not my personal favorite, could be a preference choice if someone knows how to play around it's cooldown.
ALSO IMPORTANT TO REMEMBER RUNES ARE OFTEN A PREFERENCE CHOICE BECAUSE ALL OF THEM OFFER DIFFERENT PLAYSTYLES SO DIFFERENT RUNES MAY SUIT DIFFERENT PLAYERS BETTER
Some things to look out for:
- Gangplank is all about positioning and barrels, try to bait them out/focus them when starting a fight.
- Start with Doran's Shield to lower his poke potential in early game.
- Gangplank's power spikes would be Sheen and Tabi Ninja try to play around it and fight before he gets one of those items, then wait for your power spike.
- Gangplank is going to outscale you really fast thanks to his bonus gold from runes and Q. He has good map pressure even when behind thanks to his ultimate. Knowing this things focus on tp ganking/roaming to other lanes so you can shut down his team.
This is a skill match up, use your W when he Q's you and try to engage when he mispositions. Focus down the Powder Keg's or try to bait them out. This lane could be very easy or very hard depending on who you're facing.
Later on you can definitely destroy Gangplank if you keep getting rid of his Powder Keg's. During teamfights you need to save your team from dying stupidly to GP's E's. One big Keg and your team will lose a teamfight. Don't walk into the barrels if you have no idea what you're doing! They hurt a lot!
First you need to look at your options: note I'm not telling you to buy this items yet!
- Tabi Ninja
- Tiamat
- Phage
- Sheen
So about Tabi Ninja, I think it's an OK buy. This boots lower his damage from Q and help you with sticking to him thanks to movement speed. I don't like to buy them because it delays your Trinity Force power spike.
Tiamat You will definitely need this to match Gangplank's push from barrels and keep pressure on top lane so you can attend to other fights on the map. Great first buy if you have over 1300 gold (remember to buy control wards :) )
Sheen Good buy especially if you know your damage and manage the Sheen cooldown appropriately you can dish out a lot of damage with it and get a good all-in potential. Good first back buy if you don't have enough gold for Tiamat.
Phage I simply prefer Tiamat/Sheen and have no opinion on first back Phage buy. You need to test it yourself and see how you like it.
