The new Commando GP skin is awesome and makes me play better.

The new items make GP a terror. When I had 4 items built I was able to clear a minion wave in less than 2 seconds, without using my ult. I just played a 1v5, the first time I have touched GP in 6 months, and I broke my record for the time taken to win the game.

I want to dust GP off in a game when Leisher needs a bread from ADC, I don't care if he isn't ranged.

I actually think jungle is a better spot for him. I honestly think you'll get shredded as a primarily melee ADC in bot.

GP is a better top lane champ than bottom, in my opinion.

Meaning, I think you can play him without changing/messing up the team dynamic.

I wasn't ripping you. I was merely pointing out that nobody plays a melee ADC in bot.

You'd be going against a ranged ADC and a support that is either ranged or a tank with stuns. You'd get massacred. Anyone on our team would get massacred playing a melee champ bot or mid for that matter.

My Junglin GP:

I got the farming down, and I gank when an opportunity arises.

My trouble is when I am getting counter jungled. What do other junglers do? Just suck and die? I don't want to just suck and die when getting counter jungled, I want a plan.

So let's think of a plan.

My first thought is... if they are counter jungling hard, then lots of wards. BUT... if I am spending all my money on wards, I would need my peeps to respond when they are in our jungle, so the wards actually pay off in kills. If the wards are just letting us see how our jungle is getting owned, then that is a waste of money.

When I am counter jungling, it fails when the other team reacts and kills me. Which usually happens. Our reactions do not result in kills. The fact that it happens so infrequently means we don't have much practice dealing with it. But off the top of my head, I think and immediate, swift reaction is what is needed. If someone says "they are here", mid and the outer lane react immediately. Your turret's getting hit? Too bad. React. You are hitting their tower? Too bad, react. You are about to score a kill on an enemy, well, score it. Because that is a good thing. But our reactions need to be swift and with full force. If he escapes and gets away with it, he'll be back.
