Need some top laners that can carry low silver to gold. Been looking into Vlad but idk it might be the wrong call.

Lol.... I happen to have 300 games on him this season and he can carry just don't vlad into Riven Swain you can go against swain mid but top is a different story AND Illaoi very good waveclear and we all know vlad doesn't have that amazing waveclear until he gets 2-3 items.

I recommend these guys too Darius Chogath Kled Renekton Yorick

Actually, renekton is legit probably the worst bruiser right now. Especially with triforce sterak's combo this patch being so good. Renekton can't abuse sterak's like other bruisers since everything scales off BONUS ad while sterak's BASE AD has 0 effect on this scaling and only buffs renekton's aa's. That aside, he's still horrible. He has worse base scaling. He doesn't actually really bully anyone until completing cleaver first item. His sustain is easily matched or exceeded by darius, illaoi, yorick, garen. He doesn't get free armor pen (you don't use empowered e; q or w in 99.9% of cases) like other champs. And he can't build full ad like riven and get away with it due to their differences in kit. Riven having much more mobility and more spammable shield compared to renekton's SOLE mobility (his e).

Aatrox (people still say he's shit, but if you know how to play him, he is easily a solid 1v1 champ and not that mechanically intense). Akali (get your gunblade, kill anyone). Chogath Darius Garen Gnar Illaoi (gotta know how to not take stupid trades early and feed an enemy, but she outputs more damage while building full defensive than any other champ. Like frozen gauntlet and sterak's as only "offense" and you can out dps a 3 damage item darius when you use ult. Pantheon (lethality early is completely too good. spears should not do 1/3 of someone's hp when they built early armor). TahmKench Yorick

... I find renekton to be an easy autofill and also beats riven in a 1v1 but heres the thing you say he only wins with a cleaver but that's because the person probably didn't take thunderlords/I prefer fervor since I want to still be able to kill mid/late game (you'll probably say you can still kill without it but it's a lot easier than TL for mid/late.

Unless the enemy has 4 squishies, your lane opponent is hard to reach cuz he's pantheon or jayce or something, and you plan on building a lot of damage, you never go thunderlord's. Fervor is the best option in pretty much every case. It takes all of 10 sec to op.gg someone and see. Early/mid you can 1v1 riven for sure. But by full build, you cannot unless perhaps you build entirely for the 1v1 - making her better in teamfights.

I just checked your OP.GG so you know what you are talking about. I just pick renek as an autofill cause he's very fun xD.

True that - very fun to play champ.

Go for AD over ap as you can splitpush and take objectives by yourself while the boosted noobs chase useless kills. Jax Pantheon Riven Renekton Irelia XinZhao Yasuo MonkeyKing Urgot all can easily win lane and push a lead.

Outplay potential. Like Paladin Of Life champion list for exemple are pretty good. You could add Darius in the list.

Trundle. Pros : easy to learn, can 1v2 if ahead, wins every melee matchup, can do things like this, pushes incredibly fast (Ravenous to clear waves, Triforce to shred towers), most importantly, very easy to CS : level 1, your Q gives you 20 for 8 seconds. When you have the bonus AD from your Q, you can one shot rangeds under tower (tower aa + your aa) instead of (your aa + tower aa + your aa).

Cons : can't snowball as hard against ranged matchups, I'd suggest Yorick if you're familiar with his kit. also mana hungry, you need to learn when to use W and E.
