As a Volibear Main. Should I check out Singed?

SleepyLionCub·Mar 10, 2015·1 votes·620 views

I really think singed could be cool. He seems arguably the tankiest champion in the entire game. Rammus might be a bit tankier, but he is def tankier than nearly everyone else.

Ive been looking for a tanky top laner that i really like. I kinda like Nasus too, but i feel like he actually FALLS OFF late game, since he always gets kited to infinity. With singed. that wouldnt be a problem. and id do good in teamfights either way, with the poison trail.

What do u guys think?

Singed is the ultimate proxy farmer, and will forever outfarm everyone somehow despite never having to autoattack a minion - ever.

Singed is good if you can proxy farm properly. Just note, trying to farm normally is actually quite hard since Singed has a ton of bad matchups in lane.

tbh i never really lied singed only because I would find him useless... all he does is run around with poison that's it... lol

But with Nasus you do a whole lot, it's about stacking with him, the more stacks you make the harder it is to kill nasus because you're too scared to be too near him lol. You can catch ADC's with wither and thats game.

It hardly seems to matter how many stacks i can possibly get with nasus. Its simply too hard to get multiple hits off on any mobile champion.

Between the two playstyle wise, yeah, they play incredibly alike in a sense of a tank that is meant to literally throw the squishies into the team. He is tankier, but his laning phase is weaker due to not really having any real amount of damage and more so a slower, force you to chase him playstyle. He is harder to kite for obvious reasons too.

If you want hyper tanks I have a few suggestions Chogath tons of HP from his ult Singed tons of HP from building mana which comes with one of the highest armor items in the game item 3110 Alistar can reduce all damage taken by 70% for 7 seconds with his ult, basically makes you immortal for 7 seconds where you can usually knock up once or twice. Nautilus has a shield that scales off health and tons of cc Garen his w gives him tons of bonus armor and MR

Already tried cho. He was ok, but I didn't like having no mobility. Made it easy kite him, just like nasus.

Alistair support is weird. I tried him literally once and didn't like him. It was weird because I felt like I couldn't do anything at all but just stand still and watch.

Considering picking up naut. But he actually doesn't seem any tanker than Volibear or nasus anyways.

Like Garen overall honestly. But his ult and lack of real cc makes him unappealing to me. I like tanks that pump out a ton of cc.

I play a bit of Volibear. My main top laner is Renek. I've never (while adequately farmed / won lane which is a given on renek) felt like i didnt do enough damage or wasn't tanky enough.

Singed has very little CC besides his W, and pretty much just some guy who runs around just to annoy the enemy team with his purple fart.

A well stacked Nasus has a lot more uses than Singed does. Use Wither on a hard enemy carry, and watch as their DPS depletes drastically.

He has considerably better cc than Volibear.

And like I said before. Nasus just underperformes to me. It doesn't matter if I slow the adc, my team still dies to it in like 5 seconds rather than 4.
