Very easy lane and easy to kill generally. The only reason you would die against talon is if you were overconfident and he went all in with ignite.
Annie
If you lose against Annie.....Log out you're done.
Azir
Not the hardest matchup but surely very hard because of his laser attacks. Remember that if he puts two soldiers and attacks your barrel it does not tick to one, it's gone.
Kalista
If Kalista knows what she's doing and she has HoB just don't even try...
Draven
Similarly to kalista a very hard matchup.
Darius
It's usually an even matchup but he is countered by ignite which gives you an edge
Aatrox
Pretty much even but can get hard if he kills you early. Just go executioner's calling and you should be fine.
Akali
Pretty easy to kill early but after a few items she can kill you off guard. But not even since if you're aware of her strengths and weaknesses you will dominate her
Ahri
pretty squishy but don't let your guard down and sit on a barrel before getting lvl 7.
Camille
Typical skill matchup, take grasp.
Cho'Gath
Same as Camille but quite harder to handle.
Gangplank
uhhhh
Dr. Mundo
He can be annoying, I mean I guess you get a taste of your own medicine, still a quite easy lane and no you are not forced to go ignite just take executioner's calling.
Fiora
You can bully her on lane since your Q has a higher range than hers. The only reason you would die to Fiora is probably being too cocky or not worrying enough about her all in and parry.
Fizz
pretty hard actually since he's a very annoying assassin that gets in your *** *** in.....YEP
Garen
Pretty much a skill matchup, play around his cooldowns and dont go in melee trades when his E is up.
Yasuo
Nothing much to be said about this matchup. Even though he has mobility he is still quite squishy and can get poked by your Q a lot despite his passive and W.
Gwen
Quite a hustle to beat for sure. Her W is the biggest problem for you since if you're not fighting in melee range (which you should be doing) it's hard to get to her. And if she has W your ult is useless on her
Gnar
Just poke his normal form and don't go into Mega Gnar unless you know you can kill him. Pretty easy.
Aurelion Sol
If Aurelion knows what he's doing it's a skill matchup. If the Aurelion is GogliMata well....
Heimerdinger
very squishy just be really aggressive and you should come out on top since your W is a life saver. take Fleet
Illaoi
A skill matchup. Quite fun in my opinion and if you dodge her E engage cause she is pretty much useless without her E.
Irelia
Definitely a hard matchup. Don't let yourself be surrounded by your minions. Do lots of poking with grasp as always.
Jax
If you can space well then he should be no problem. Just go grasp and avoid long trades when he hits lvl 6.
Jayce
A beginner Jayce is no threat, but a good Jayce (very rare) is a big threat.
Karma
Not hard just annoying.
Kassadin
A very easy matchup, he is squishy and cant really do much against your poke with Q and barrels.
Katarina
you kill her easy early but when she gets some items better watch out
Kayle
Go ignite and poke. Very easy but when she gets that level 16 just run and think later
Kennen
Pretty squishy and weak against you since your W exists.
Nasus
Poke him and zone him. He's hopeless until he stacks which you shouldn't let happen
Zed
If you know your barrel combos and placements well then he is no threat. If not he can be quite hard later in the game.
Nocturne
Countered by ignite. Pro tip, you can use your W to get his ult blindness away.
Teemo
Just go second wind and revitalize and you outheal his Q while he suffers to do anything against your Q and barrels
Wukong
Not really major but not really even ether.
Renekton
Really just another skill matchup.
Sion
Go divine instead of trinity force and you will end up a little bit stronger in all stages of the game if played correctly.
Pantheon
Not a threat at all. Just sit under a barrel and watch him be slowly picked off by your glorious pirate kit
Urgot
Pretty much even. If they have healing in their team you can go for serpent's fang and chempunk. You can W his ult when he is dragging you to his "inevitable" death. That's better!
Trundle
Pretty easy just don't get cornered and you outdamage him most of the time.
Ornn
Pretty easy. Literally Malphite with more utility but less damage on lane.
Poppy
A weird matchup. Quite easy but still not a joke.
Tryndamere
Quite hard but if both play correctly you have a slight edge with ignite.
Maokai
Just too easy, he literally can't do **** to you
Skarner
A very, very easy matchup. Just don't get caught under his turret!
Vladimir
It's vlad.
Kled
Even. Just make sure you dismount him early and you should be fine
Riven
Quite hard but still a skill matchup don't ever underestimate her
Ryze
Quite terrifying but you can maybe survive if you play passively after his lvl 6.
Lucian
just no. His passive is too much to handle.
Lee Sin
Hard if lee is good. Easy if lee is bad. Depends on Lee Sin player skill.
Mordekaiser
Just be aware of his Q and stay away from his passive and you win 99% of the time. W to exit his stoopid ult
Shen
He can't kill you just take grasp and poke and save W for the taunt.
Sylas
You don't need ignite but understanding to not go all in unless you are sure of killing him (be aware of that W it's nasty!).
Quinn
Just take ignite and all in every time you are able to, you are just too much for her.
Tahm Kench
He has a lot of sustain and a good way to engage, Go grasp and poke the living hell out of him and if you remain careful you should turn out just fine.
Soraka
I know Soraka doesn't really work on top anymore but I'll put her in anyways. Not that easy in the beginning but once you're lvl 7 she's done
Diana
It's not even close. The captain is far superior.
Syndra
Just get Mercury's Treads and you win against her 99% of the time.
Singed
One of the easiest matchups I can think of.
Rammus
whenever he tries to approach your ***, just keg him in HIS ***, poke with your Q, when taunted just W and you're good. Just don't prioritize trading with your melee after he gets bramble vest
Swain
I guess you can find him on the midlane recently. But don't worry since gangplank destroys this crow with his chad kegs. You are in full control of the lane. W when stunned and poke that's it.
Shaco
A lot of people fear shaco but the truth is that he is just a squishy toy for gangplank to play with unless the shaco is pink ward you will destroy him and avenge every moment of suffering this champion has brought upon your comrades!
Vayne
Although she is very squishy she is still ranged toplane and can control you more than you can her. unless you are level 7 don't bother placing your kegs on the lane. Farm a lot and hit as much Qs with Grasp as you possibly can.
Malphite
Yes he has his passive and can be pretty annoying but same as fiora your Q outranges his. Just poke him, sit on barrels and the matchup is surprisingly easy.
Neeko
The matchup is quite weird honestly. She is very squishy but gets the wave cleared really fast and her all in can be pretty terrifying. I suggest sitting on a barrel and staying safe and maybe even take ignite.
Qiyana
Pretty much even if you maneuver your kegs well. Her all in is stronger than yours but who says you should let her do that? W THE GOAT
Orianna
You might want to go for that serpent's fang and mercury's treads since your Q isn't that scary to her.
Sett
Should've been even but Riot loves sett so much now we all have to suffer. You can kill him before his lvl 6 but be careful after.
Twisted Fate
His fate will for sure be twisted. Bully him with your Q and when you get that lvl 7..... "Tell them to bring me my money"
Yorick
Even as far as I know. Get those Qs with Grasp like always avoid getting hit with his E and you should be fine.
Yone
A bit harder than Yasuo but still really easy just don't trade when he is in his E, poke him constantly and you are fine like wine.
Vel'Koz
Before level 7 you are inferior mostly but after level 7 you should be able to zone him and hit him with your kegs easily and do much more damage with spellblade.
Malzahar
Even though you get out of his ult it's hard to poke him with your Q because of his passive and it's generally hard to get to him. I suggest playing more passively before level 7
Rengar
Squishy but dangerous, it's a battle of who will one shot first.
Akshan
No actual sustain, barrels hit him like a truck and when they do all in and he is done for.
Cassiopeia
Really squishy and you can cleanse her ult, One all in and she is finished just stay alert she can put out great damage herself after a few components.
Jarvan IV
His ult and your ult and barrels go perfectly together.
Malzahar
His ult is a good setup for your barrels
Amumu
Very good synergy with his ult
Rell
great cc, Rell and Gangplank work great together.
Skarner
Very nice lockdown from his ult and E
Gnar
If gnar gets a good ult it's perfect for you but that doesn't always happen sadly
Lillia
Just great man. The combo makes me shed a tear.
Veigar
Lock up with his E? Bellissimo.
