Top Lane Woes

Wørkshop Shaco·10/22/2014, 5:17:49 AM·1 votes·974 views

I'm new to ranked and I was put in the Silver V Division after my 10 matches.

I like playing a tanky top such as Dr. Mundo. However, I keep getting bad match ups such as ranged and I have zero kill potential as Mundo.

So I went to support. I have lost so many games it isn't even funny.

I need a tanky top that actually has decent kill potential.

Any thoughts? Thank you!

Ryze. Top lane, tanky, burst, screws up 90% of the top laners.

Maokai has good kill potential?

I actually have hin locked already and tried him in the jungle a few times.

Will give him another try!

Garen, Cho'gath, Nasus, Nautilus when built with a little AP (similar to cho) is very dangerous I find, Renekton, Shen, Singed, Volibear.

I'll second Ryze as a tanky top with kill potential.

Ryze is exactly what you're looking for.

Don't forget the get the utility mastery tree and the TP. Gank bot lane for profit/contest dragon. Rush tear and try to start the combo with E , since it removes MR. You can rush glacial shroud if you're losing lane VS AD or go for ROA.

Q (mid air and press R)+E+W+Q is the best possible burst scenario

zac

olaf

lissandra

jayce

kayle

Maokai. Really anyone can be tanky depending how you build them.

maximum mana, maxim mana HP regen, mana regen, mobility , spell vamp. Put 4 in offensive tree and you start with 10% CD. With some runes his Q is now his auto attack and stacking tear gets quicker. Plus the mastery that gives you gold on hit and you'll get rich in the top lane.
