These are some of the champions I enjoy playing jungle/top lane
.
But I would like to know what I'm getting into before I invest the time to main them. I know they aren't typical otp champs but I enjoy playing them! Are any of these a bad idea to main though? ie poor matchups etc. Some other champs I'm considering are 
. The reason they aren't on the original list is because they just aren't my favorite champions, but if it's really worth it I would main them.
Mysticman892 votesOTP's of pretty much any champion can and have made them work pretty much up to diamond or so, as their raw skill can win them even 'counter' match ups. If your ambitions aren't diamond+, then no matter what you choose, it's going to be viable. Even if your sights are beyond diamond, most champions are still pretty viable (and the ones who aren't currently will in theory eventually be tweaked to be made so). Of the ones you mentioned, garen is the only one that stands out as one known for being poor in high elo (since he just gets kited and can't do much about it), and doesn't have much to offer if he can't get on anyone.
I wouldn't necessarily recommend being a OTP, particularly if you enjoy multiple champions. You can main whoever, but theres no need to go all the way to OTP status and you can still play the others somewhat. If you're having difficulty choosing, it's probably a sign that OTP life isn't for you, and it's really when you play a champion and suddenly feel like you always want to play it and it just comes naturally that OTP life begins, rather than as a conscious decision.

DragonManSquid1 votesThanks in advance for any feedback!
PeanutButterFan1 votesOTP Garen trust me you'll get out of bronze fast.
DragonManSquid1 votesLol, I can't wait to sit in low plat and literally never get out no matter how good I am. Seriously though, I'm not otp'ing to climb.

is a great Jungler atm, he's hard to ward for, has a decent clear, ms boost, and a spook
also, probably wont see any nerfs anytime soon
DragonManSquid1 votesYeah, but this isn't even a main. I only want to play a champion I enjoy.
TheHappyReaperz1 votesYorick and Sion are, in my opinion, some of the best champs in the game. While neither are thought to be very Meta or OP at the moment, each has a unique playstyle, and have a nice bit of personality to go along with it.
DragonManSquid1 votesYeah, I like the fact that I can build Sion however I want. If I couldn't build Garen however I wanted he would be so boring.
Dolasaur1 votesYou said in one reply that you're maining for fun, not to climb. That means that the only bad ones to main are the ones that will make you have less fun. In my opinion, that means no champs that have high ban rates (Rengar) or champs that are going to make your teammates rage (Heimerdinger, support <something nonmeta>).
Seriously, as long as you find them fun, that's all that's important. I really would advise against considering Rengar, though, since his ban rate has been reasonably high since forever.
And maybe not Shen, depending on how sad you are when your team rages at you for not ulting when they want you to (whether or not it was really a mistake).
DragonManSquid1 votesWell it's not fun to play someone countered by everything. I'm playing to have fun, but I'm still playing to win. That's why I would never main Karthus(in addition to the fact that his ult is bull).
midnight oil241 votesHere's my tip: go yorick. He's so fun to play as, and the ghouls are so interesting, as you have to focus around slowly sieging while dealing with fast moving ghouls.
He's really amazing.
