Everything that is wrong with the toplane
-
Ranged champions just strictly surpassed their melee counterparts. They seem to do everything better aside from maybe taking damage, which they can completely avoid using their natural range advange and good positioning. Remmember a couple of seasons back when
was basically a troll level pick that almost guaranteed loss after 30 minutes? Yet now he is probably more useful than 80% of melee top laners. -
There is no reward what so ever for playing melee champion in top lane. Low map presence, aside from situational teleport play, that may or may not work, counterpicks and jungle camps that you have to deal with. Surely after all this early bullshit toplaners will have godlike mid to lategame? No not really. Unless your playing
, that has insane waveclear and teamfighting presence or
, that after a certain point will need 2 people to hold him, and will instantly take your base, if you leave him alone for 2 seconds, your influence on the game might aswell be non existant. -
Back in season 3 people complained how useless, supports were and how unfun was to play as one. Well thats basically top laners right now. I mained top majority of season 7, and I get autofilled maybe once every month or something. Noone wants to play in this hell hole of a lane.
