Dont you just love when you pick your bruiser top and enemy picks an ADC top
And just get kitted all game and out CSd and out scaled thanks to the enemy having klepto and by the time team fights start he has 3 items when you barely can afford

Nobody likes being counterpicked in any role. That's not unique to toplane ;)
i picked maokai top and the enemy went lucian top
he was gold 2 im silver 3 currently i went 3-1-4 won lane and dominated him
I used to play top lane.
I quit because top lane is all about the counter pick game and hoping that your rando jungle helps you out when and if the enemy overextends, which they will always fucking try to do, and most your jungles will avoid your lane like the plague while issuing you instruction on how to play your goddamn lane whenever you ask for assistance.
Don't you love when you pick a champion that is easily counterpicked before the enemy has chosen their champion. Then the enemy gets half a brain and actually counterpicks you instead of counterpicking himself?
I only play Top, sometimes jgl... And yea, first picking a Champ like Darius, Tryndamere or Olaf almost guarantees that you‘ll have to lane against a Jayce OTP, or some metaslave that just picks ranged champs top because it‘s pretty decent rn. Is it just me or don‘t you say any melee champs (ecxept Riven) Top nowadays?
