Looking for top laners to play

tank top laners which are meta are limited to renek, maokai, and gnar.

the others like gragas, alistar, irelia later on in the match, mundo and nasus are close behind.

others like rammus, chogath, shen, singed, shyvana are really behind right now and wouldn't be recommended, but still possible.

i wouldn't know much about AP top, but its apparently good against immobile top laners and can shut them down and get ahead easily.

Swain. Another range who counters melee's, you can build tanky swain, do damage, sustain, and stay in a long time. As long as they don't grab an exhaust and they're not extremely aggressive early game, it'll be a lane.
