Why is ranged top a thing . I swear everytime i play a bruiser i literally get stomped by a ranged top . I have no fun staying in my lane afking beside my turret . Lets name a few viktor , kennen , cass. Why is this a thing riot ? Why is top role not being addressed ?
Jamaree2 votesBecause without ranged tops, certain champions would run amok up top.

who keeps ranged champions from running amok?
i like that when you have specific melee champions who can counter marksmen on bot lane, marksmen become "literally unplayable", but ranged champions who hard counter melee on top lane are considered the norm.

Other ranged champions, and champions like Irelia who prey on squishy ranged tops.

I mean, the non overloaded ones tend to push out the other melees which in turn needs the ranged ones, like how Darius and Renekton bully out every other melee champion.

Oof, now every ranged top laner loses because ranged champions base stats suck besides like Graves. Ranged top laners only win if they can poke you down while you can't retaliate, they WILL lose in melee range if you can get there.
Nigerian Princé1 votesLMAO , nahhh . Viktor top can literally facetank you and he would take no damage . I'm a singed one trick and i get fuckedd by everyone lol
Bonipherus1 votesonly the new fighters can lane against them because they are that overloaded 
Albus Rumbledore1 votesGotta love dude that first picks singed and then cries cuz he got countered...
Warlord Rhinark1 votesJust do these three things:
Buy 
Buy 
Take Second Wind in the Resolve tree.
There, now nobody can poke you out of lane.
FOR JUSTICE1 votesi mean if you're a bruiser concede the wave until level 3 cause in 99% of trades you cant fight back before then, without cheesing. like you'll win the initial trade but start losing once youre backing off. plus its not a good idea because you might also accidentally push the wave to them, thus denying you more.
therefore, let them slow push the wave into you so you develop the minion wave advantage, and trade then. as long as you quick trade then back off they wont follow due to the fact they will take a bunch of winion aggro. once they burn a spell to begin thinning the wave, proceed to go back in. ezpz escpecially if you start doran + second wind, or take TWT + BD in inspiration, and you can sustain right back up.
