absoluelty no brain cells needed to pick these sion gnar or irelia champs. even tank gangplank works. if you so much as think of playing any bruiser who doesnt have the best engage you literally ask to lose. please riot do somethng with this annoying ass tank meta.
Renaille8 votesIrelia isn't a tank though, and will be squishy as hell during the laning phase.
Goodest Gamer2 votesshe gets triforce and gets full tank after that and will shred anyone. what kind of irelias do you play vs?
Hinro Honato8 votesWell then why aren't you playing them? Seems like a win is very important to you so why are you not using them? Or better yet, why aren't you using champions that excel at killing tanks? vayne does it well and trundle eats tanks quite literally.
Or is counter picking to hard?
Goodest Gamer2 votesbecause i want to use brain cells and win a lane. not just use my champion.
Hinro Honato4 votesUnless you have a special create a champion slot in your game no matter what you play, it's going to be you using a champion. So what champions take brain cells to use? I've heard of a few resources like mana, health, energy, and random red stuff but no mention of brain cells.
And who says you can't play what you want in any lane? Going up against irelias? Well pick different things until you find out how to beat it and then use it whenever you're up against an irelia. This isn't complicated. If you're not willing to put any time into figuring out how to beat something then continue to get pubstomped.
insaiyanbacca1 voteslearn to play trundle he is actually really enjoyable and wrecks tank as well as takes a while to learn
Goodest Gamer1 votescounterpicking irelia by.....?

Shadow Gilgamesh4 votesGood, tank and immobile melee fighters have been complaining for MONTHS about spammy projectile champs top lane, I'm GLAD the meta is shifting away from teams with support as the only tank.
Pirahna2 votesi love the change. I'm so tired of teams being entirely squishy. with sona bot, lissandra top, and shaco jg, i get tired of being an adc or ap assassin without an engage champ. -_-

Same. Tanks are fun to squish tryhard lee sin's and such. My friend's been going god mode with Garen, the tears of tryhards are like a fine wine, and cries of "noob champ" are the sweetest sound.
Variks the Loyal3 votesTop lane is for tanky people.
My only regret is that my Renekton has fallen out of favor. I miss Renekton so bad.
Goodest Gamer1 votestop lane is a lane, its not a designated build path. its not fair that its ignored and considered to be the face tank of every teamfight. i want to be able to do something other than fucking tank for my stubborn adc and the mid.
Variks the Loyal2 votesTop lane will always favor tanky people, because of the nature of the lane. It's farther away from early objectives (Dragon, mid tower, the ADC who you want to get rolling ASAP), so it needs someone who is tanky who can sustain for a long time.
If you want to play non-tanks top, that's fine. Just don't be salty when the nature of the lane (You won't get a lot of jungler support, you almost have to take TP to traverse the map, you're far away from any other teammates) forces you into certain roles. No amount of champion balancing can make any ranged champs (Except tanky ones like Ryze and Gnar, or Utility ones like Lulu) better in top than they would be elsewhere.
Cenobite Azaziel2 votesOlaf. Olaf destroys irelia. You can pick Darius, yorick or jax.
Pirahna2 votesinstead of complaining, break the meta. go mage top, or a ranged ad top. build pen items. if you pick someone out of reach of your opponent that can safely harass and shred, the meta can't beat you. the same meta exists in the jungle and some of support. your team can get its engage from those. there is no rule that says you have to follow the meta. And if your teammates say otherwise, you have a mute button. don't be afraid to use it. :)
Sooko2 votesHmm... Vayne top is hard in what universe?
Do you want me to list all the "healthy" non-tanky champions for top lane?
Goodest Gamer1 voteshiemer? jayce? vayne? vs an irelia or a tank sion late game? ROFL.
Sooko3 voteshiemer? jayce? vayne? vs an irelia or a tank sion late game? ROFL.
Late game, lanes don't exist anymore (especially considering tanks are so good at teamfighting they want to stay together)
And yes Vayne can destroy pretty much any tanky enemy, especially late game
And all three of those champions are super easy to win lane with in the top lane unless they come across a special match-up.

Top lane was meant for tanks/bruisers, what do you mean?
Erockandroll1 votesdid you just call Irelia a Tank?
