Old face, new ability

Gangplank will be making his return as a legendary unit in Set 9.5. He has been in many sets prior but never has he made an appearance with this ability. With melee and ranged versatility and tons of damage alongside a captivating ability, he should be an exciting addition to many of your teams!
