Top Laners

I don't really know who to play top lane as my only top lane champ right now is and he's not very good (in the games that I have played). I am level 21 so would prefer easier champs but the price doesn't matter and if they are OP I wouldn't mind to learn them :D It would also be very helpful if you could give me some tips and tricks or link a guide/build that you find helpful as I can't really tell if guides are bull crap or not :P

EDIT: please try to include any tips/tricks but thanks for your guys' input! :D EDIT2: So i would prefer if you guys could reply to each other so i can find an overall best instead of lots of random ones :D Sion and Darius have the most recommendations (2) so it will probably be between them or a newcomer ... p.s my thing isn't broken anymore so that's a plus!

You guys aren't making a decision so i made a poll :P

Sion is pretty fun to play, although he has low mana early.

Sion is good. I'd also recommend Poppy (really cheap too).

I really have found that no one champ is OP.. If you are level 21 and learning the game try out some easy champs with good balance like Poppy, Trundle, jax, irelia, Gnar. YOu might like one of those.

Yasuo

People on the boards tell me Yasuo is really easy to play and OP, try out him.

Play Malphite :)

If you like Garen, but don't want to play Garen, I would suggest trying Darius. He's far stronger right now, fills a very similar niche to Garen, and has a similar playstyle.

That type of playstyle is a little on the weak side right now, but if you practice at it you'll be able to make it work regardless, just as people who have played for years can.

Darius and Garen are both Juggernauts dairus it a little harder but he's also a lot stronger right now

I recommend you get aboard the Swain Train. Get RoA right away, Liandrys & RoA. Get a lot of AP. Try to get the blue buff as much as possible. If you are feeling rather like being a total tool, get the gunblade too for even more healing.
