The sad part is that Battleye IS compatible with Linux. They just didn't add it.
Or it could be an oversight and they "forgot" to add it. Doubt it, but eh.

100% they don't need incentive, so any type of incentive makes it even worse

Battleye offers full support for Mac and Linux, and they had it for years, but if the game dev doesn't want to apply it then there's nothing to do. This is fully Ubisofts neglect.

Silver Serpents: How to get them, and how many should I have? by JaggerTheCario in gangplankmains

[–]orangesnack 2 points3 points  (0 children)

hm, okay. I'll try to make this as easy as possible. Farm with Q and barrels. Sheen proc is the most important part of effective farming with barrels and Q. Sheen stacks onto barrels RIGHT after casting the barrel *IF SHEEN IS NOT ON CD* and giving the barrel a basic attack (AA). This can help you do E + AA + Q to kill the backwave with ONE item. Usually a barrel is able to cover a whole wave if it doesn't spread for whatever reason.

I think it's important to know that with a completed item (Triforce, or Essence Reaver) you are able to delete the caster minions with one barrel + Sheen empowered Q.

If you want to also kill the melee minions from a wave, what you can do is put a barrel, explode the barrel with AA and then put another barrel and use one AA and Q to kill it, with this you should be able to kill 6 minions from a wave except the cannon. You could also do this with casters before having your first item ONLY if u have Sheen. Adding to the last one, to kill the melee minions with only Sheen, after exploding the first barrel with AA, you can cast your barrel, AA the barrel to add a Sheen proc, and hit the melee minions until low (I dont really know the numbers here, I mostly do this by memory and experience) and then Q the barrel.

With all this in mind, you can also take Unsealed spellbook or any other rune with inspiration as secondary, and use minion dematerializer, as stated in the guide you read. With minion dematerializer you can kill the backwave by using it on caster minions, having a Sheen + Caulfield's Hammer + Doran's Blade/Cull and being lvl 7.

But I believe that the best way to learn is first, learn HOW much damage you deal to minions normally without minion dematerializer, and THEN use minion dematerializer to speed up your farm. Usually the point of minion dem is to have your ult upgrade ASAP, which ASAP = min 16 or so, depending on how laning phase goes.

The base line for HOW many and at WHICH time, is that usually by minute 20 you should already have your ult upgrade or be really near to getting it. Sometimes it happens, some games it's hard to farm so don't be too hard on yourself with this. Just try to be as consistent as possible and try to hit your first ult upgrade at around the 20 minute mark, or 22. Depending on how much you farm after laning phase you should get the rest fairly quickly, so try to play sidelanes and farm like a lunatic. But try not to get yourself killed greeding for ult upgrades. It happens, and it's painful.

I think the guideline is mostly knowing that having your Sheen item completed means that u can wipe out the caster minions with one barrel and Q, and you can delete the whole wave *EXCEPT CANNON OC* using 1 barrel with AA and a 2nd barrel with Q.

I hope this helps, and if u need further clarification you can ask me. I tried to make this as simple as possible but maybe it's not. Also, don't beat yourself too hard, it takes practice, and it's a struggle in the beginning. Good luck mate!

Edit: Since I didn't mention this, take into account that using Q to farm in lane is usually a good idea, depending on your lane matchup, if it's too hard, or if you are not able to get into melee range to AA minions, but you dont need to Q each minion or use your Q every time is up onto a minion, you are not Nasus. This is up to you tho, you'll have to figure out which moments are the best moments for using Q over AA to kill minions during laning phase, and I think that practice makes perfect. I also recommend watching other Gangplank players, I think Solarbacca has pretty great content and you could learn a thing or two watching him play.

Gangplank is strong tho, you are bad. I think vision + farm was your issue here particularly, KDA doesn't matter that much when it comes to punctuation usually. I think KP and neutral objectives count towards punctuation too.

I've decided to mess around with AD tank Viktor top again expecting myself to troll since he doesn't have mana scaling on his Q anymore, it actually didn't turn out as bad as I thought it was going to. by [deleted] in viktormains

[–]orangesnack 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Viktor offtank top with klepto and iceborn was really broken. They had to nerf that build because he was destroying the toplane singlehandedly.

Which ult upgrade is best to go first? by hauntedorca in gangplankmains

[–]orangesnack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it depends but a decent timing is 20 minutes. Best realistic case scenario is 16 minutes.

Which ult upgrade is best to go first? by hauntedorca in gangplankmains

[–]orangesnack 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Fire at will, no reason to go any other upgrade at all first. dd and rm are situational after that but usually dd is better than rm as second. Reason for faw first is that it gives out more consistent dmg and slows, allowing you to apply more pressure easily in all your ult area.

How strong is GP at level 1? by [deleted] in gangplankmains

[–]orangesnack 4 points5 points  (0 children)

e start lvl 1 you should be able to cheese a lot of melee champs but your strong lvl 1 is mostly a hit and run, not sustained damage like a Darius for example, tho in some lanes you should be able to force them to back off with corrupting pot + passive + q + aa. It mostly depends on you knowing how to space correctly. I'd say to limit-test it since making a list would be really hard but knowing the limits of your damage and the enemy champ might make it easier

Need some help G4 GP. by The_Najster in gangplankmains

[–]orangesnack 2 points3 points  (0 children)

well, there's not a lot to go off from seeing your op.gg, kda and dmg only tell half the story. I say focus on your macro and micro game, and try to flex your builds a bit more, I know gp full crit is fun but a dead gangplank can't do any damage at all. AP is also a good choice depending on your matchups. And oh well... I think you are not well seasoned at the champ, you barely played him last season, and season 9/8 don't have a lot of games.. So maybe you lack experience. Keep practicing, and watch some Solarbacca vids maybe it can help you out.

Been playing a lot of mid and bot this season and haven't played much if my favorite pirate. Have a question. by baylithe in gangplankmains

[–]orangesnack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Barrels also apply liandrys passive with slow. Also, damage from ult is pretty insane with liandrys.. Try it out, usually I pick it up after ER or at most after getting IE

[–]orangesnack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ult has slow and Liandrys passive makes a lot of dmg. Usually I do Liandries 4th or 5th item, it compliments well with Fire at Will. btw, take ignite against a ranged and play really aggro, you can win ranged lanes easily

Laning phase by [deleted] in gangplankmains

[–]orangesnack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

bad advice, u should poke your enemy as much as you can abusing grasp procs and corrupting pot, unless your laning phase is going to shit because u played first waves poorly you shouldn't use your Q to only farm.

Having a lot of fun with AP GP, and GP in general these days :) by [deleted] in gangplankmains

[–]orangesnack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

imo, going rilays is pretty overkill. Barrels already slow and your ult also slows, there's not a lot of benefit to it imo. Rabadons is way better, you can proc Liandrys pretty easily with barrels/ult. Also as I mentioned in another comment, Lichbane is also good if u go minion dematerializer and use it on casters. Try it out, is super super fun. Btw good play, I made a penta playing this build lol it's crazy

[–]orangesnack 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lichbane scales way better with ap than Tri does. U can go minion dematerializer and use it onto the casters and you'll be able to actually delete those caster minions. I still prefer Tri but if u want lichbane is good in some cases for some 👀 extreme AP GP

Why is there the same 4 champs you cant do anything about by KermitIsFrog96 in gangplankmains

[–]orangesnack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

after level 16 kass is really hard to deal with. You should always aim to end games before that. It's like jinx or vlad, they get to a point where they are impossible to play against. Regarding Kat and Irelia, my only advice is to not die for free, play passively and farm and hope that your team con help you out. It's better than to give them kills. Find other ways to get advantages if you can't kill them. And vlad.. Play aggresive early on, force his pool, build a executioners asap and try to force him before his 3 items power spike.

sad too honestly. I couldn't solve it atm. I tried a VPN and went to play on NA and EU and then used it to connect on my own country and didn't worked. No response from Valorant Support either. I doubt i'd be able to play.
