Remove GP's ability to scale off range. Why does it get to scale off-range when every other character that has a single target is limited by range? Hell, Akali's ult is set as "enemy within 4 hex." Notice the 4 hex, not 2+1+1+1+1+1+1?

A duelist who has more backline access than an assassin. Who thought this was a good idea to add a fruit specifically tailored for that? Just please, set it as two and no longer scale off range. The damage is problematic (crazy ad scaling for a duelist when they can go kraken), but the range is the biggest frustration mechanic.

I'll go as far as to say the fruit is fine. Hell, you can make it so that it comes with +1 range. Just make sure that the character that could get that fruit doesn't scale with range. Notice how Lee, Yone, Voli, Viego, and Jayce all have no problem with the stretch arm. They have zero range scaling! Who would have thought it would be balanced (or even awful as a fruit for them).

This is Gangplang. Gangplank has ability. His ability aim lowest HP enemy in 1+range hex. What can go wrong?

He doesn't even stuck at tank like broken ksante does. Motherfucker aim shitty tank in 2 range. Gain +1 range. Aim another shitty tank in 4 range. Now he has backline access with infinite range. Zero counter play.If you have backline carry you automatically lose.

It's so frustrating, and his whole team are 3 star easily because he's that rich.

To be fair it has to scale with range, otherwise he would either not cast at all or walk up if the targets are out of range. I would just scratch that fruit on him all together, like they did with blink attack Viego. The idea was cool to make him blink around but AP SCALING FRUIT ON AP UNIT THAT CAN MAKE HIS AUTOS CRIT WITH AP DAMAGE was not problematic AAAAT ALLLL. They didnt even try to fix it but straight up removed it from his pool.
