At the moment i think Darius, Tryndamere, and Riven are some Top lane terminators, but im curious what other people think and why. Mind sharing some info of your fav top lane champs with me? :) Also, out of summoner 12 summoner 14 summoner 6 summoner 21 summoner 3 which ones are your favorite summoners to bring with your Flash in the top lane? Thanks guys :D

Gnar Nasus Renekton The other top laners in this patch are not beasts but humanoids.

I want to say neither of them.

But if i don't have a choice Tryndamere. Just because he can split push hard and if he gets rolling he can 1v1 almost anyone.

So I was brought down to Bronze I from Gold III this season, it was a pain getting out of bronze but Malphite top did it for me. Had no problems against Jax and Irelia of course. He scaled better late game than Darius, and he can poke Rumble out of lane early and really mess him up. He does poorly against riven early but he becomes unkillable.

Otherwise Swain is very safe and strong, and I haven't used him in a while but Vladimir with item 3116 is a serious threat, better than most with the item.

Nasus is a problem since people are playing more passively allowing him to farm.

as a top nasus main myself, Nasus is strong if you know to freeze a lane and farm near tower. If you push, you are always vulnerable with zero escape other than flash.

Of the three you listed, Darius is good, but falls off a bit late game. his mid game is insane. But you have to know how to work his combo's right for maximum damage on your R

Trynd has an insane late game, but you are pretty item dependent. You have to farm well, and know exactly when your R is up to trade in fights.

Riven can snowball, but in order to be a good riven, you have to know how to hop walls and use your shield at the right times. Watch BoxBox play his riven. it will make you think like you just started playing league.

Just my 2 cents.

Tryndamere and Riven can basically be destroyed by kiting, as well as darius early game, but he gets too tanky to deal with... Swain Fiora Vladimir are all pretty safe and do major damage whenever they want :/ Don't get me wrong, I love tryndamere, and I hate bashing on him...he's just so easy to counter :(

Personally, I would definitely take Darius To the top lane any day. Jayce Is another great top right now i feel. He can get the job done with his poke, and his straight AD/Armour Pen Early game makes him hella Stronk. I also feel like Jax Is definitely coming back into play. I might give up on my normal mid lane and start picking up jax again.
