Which champions are the best at destroying turrets atm?

By that I mean mostly throughout the entire game, not just in lategame with 12k gold worth of items or so.

Typically people refer to ADCs when it comes to this, but that isn't true imo. Champions without attackspeed / AD boost vs turrets (like Kalista, Varus or Quinn) aren't any better at this than a Renekton or Azir.

MasterYi can take down turrets relatively fast in lategame, but his turret destruction speed is still not "that" much better.

My best bet would be champions that can spam abilities to trigger item 3057 when attacking turrets, so Lucian, Ezreal, Nasus, Vi , Udyr, Shyvana should be extremely good at this even at level 6 with just a Sheen and a bit of AD.

Yorick

interesting nobody brought him up yet. when i get control of the lane by level 6 its usually guaranteed turret first blood. hes a god at split pushing and taking turrets.

he has a decently strong early game against a lot of champions too.

far better than nasus, who needs way more time to ramp up.

i also noticed that his maiden and ghouls are incredibly helpful to taking dragons, rift herald and baron. and she teleports and recalls with you as long as shes not stuck in lane push mode.

you can summon her to rush a dragon, recall to base to heal yourself and her up and then tp with her into top lane. for example.

my usual build item 3078 item 3748 and either item 3512 or item 3026 depending on the situation. if the new rift herald becomes a thing, i have to practise soloing the thing on yorick.

if the opportunity ever arises that you have any lane to yourself for a moment, you should be able to push down 2, maybe 3 turrets off of it by the time the enemy team can react.

like imagine a situation where you manage to kill your lane opponent while the enemy jungler is bot lane. or your bot lane gets 5 man ganked and youre alone in top lane.

summon rift herald, summon yoricks maiden and push down everything in that lane within a minute.

An ADC who can do that is Tristana hands down the most fastest at taking turrets and objectives.

I also THINK (don't quote me on this) Tryndamere passive can apply to turrets

I thought that was obvious since he's even played botlane. Ziggs Ziggs

Gangplank Jayce Tryndamere Ziggs Tristana Jinx (Even early games)

Can't think about a jungler who could be able to destroy turret that easily early game. Maybe LeeSin through is AS buff Shyvana Udyr lacks a few dmg. Well except if he goes item 1400 Vi got a aa reste but dunno.

Marksmen are great turret destroyers naturally, fighters who itemize into item 3078 can chunk turrets hard w/ spellblade procs, same with mages who itemize item 3100

Edit: also ziggs because duh.

Ziggs with Lichbane can 2-shot turrets. A hardcore stacked Nasus could theoretically 1-shot turrets aswell
