If Youre Thinking About Main Top

Run. Leave. Dont do it! Youre going to waste your time maining the most useless lane untill you get to challenger tier. This lane is legit terrible, you get only 1 champ to get fed off of, junglers camp you for some reason, you have less roaming pressure, late game youre almost always useless, you have to split all the time in order to do anything, lastly it doesnt matter how fed you get if any other lane gets fed.

Main Adc/Mid/Jungle. Trust me, you dont want to main top lane.

Bot lane youre relevant 24/7 of the game, you do tons of damage, win lane = win game 90% of the time, double the kills, and more dragons due to being next to it.

Mid you have so much roaming potential, lot more carry potential, more damage than top laners, better wards to support team, and you can assist bot/jungle whenever they need it.

Jungle you can actually gank lanes and counter jungle. You dont have to worry about someone missing their smite on baron/dragon, dont have to worry about the jungler diving a tower at lvl 4 with no armor giving the enemy a free kill, and you can shut down enemy jungle from ganking any lanes if youre good enough.

TLDR;

Top lane has no impact other than to sit down, eat your doritos and split all game. If you group then youll lose slowly but surely. Only way you win as a top laner is if you get fed hard in top lane, which only happens in lower elos, then roam the rest of game. Roaming in higher elo wont work as much beens people tend to know youre roaming unless theyre legit just bad.

Being top lane in this game is like being a librarian in an anime. You might have super cool powers, but you'll be spending most of your time standing behind a counter while the world spins around you.

Exactly how it is.

Top lane is a load of bullshit.

I went 326 games of Riven this season and came out with a 44% WR. Got stuck at Silver 2.

Went back to my ADC role and got to Gold 5 (84LP right now) after a week of games...

My 44% WR on Riven feels bad but I felt everything what the OP said.

I could win my lane, crush it, then become irrelevant if the game went on for too long. Now with the rune changes and lack of level 1 CDR, riven feels even more gimped.

I can carry the game as elise, Evelynn, Ahri, Vayne, Cait, Janna, Ornn support, etc,.....but not Riven.

This is totally wrong.

Top lane isn't in a good position right now but what you just said is made up.

My bad, please explain with logic what is wrong level 23 who clearly mains top lane and has made it past silver 100% guarantee. Please tell me?

Top lane isnt the most impactful role but it always felt like home.

Some people like the independence of top lane. They enjoy not depending on the others to handle their lane(minus gank campers) and do it all by themselves!

How to play top lane:

Step 1. Lock in Maokai or Cho'gath

Step 2. Farm farm farm (your opponent can't stop you since you can't die and neither can they, woo tanks)

Step 2.5. All your other lanes lose and you lose the game (skip this if your team isn't braindead)

Step 3. Proceed to out DPS their entire team because you're an unkillable behemoth who's stacking resistances and HP.

Step 4. Win the game because you're nye unkillable and you one shot/chain CC their ADC/main carry.
