Why are people complaining about top laners?

Why would you complain about Poppy Darius and Jayce being broken, when junglers clearly have the most influence on games right now. Even if Darius goes 5/0 in lane it still won't matter if the enemy Vi Hecarim Ivern has ganked bot lane 6 times, got first blood tower and 3 infernal drakes. Of all the lanes, you choose one that can only influence the map every 5 minutes unless you're some bullshit like Gangplank Pantheon ?? Really gameplay boards?

"Even if Darius goes 5/0 in lane"

Well of course, if the bot lane has basic knowledge of not sitting next to Darius at melee range

is that why you dont mention poppy and jayce also going 5/0? because they can def catch the adc unlike darius

If balance was decided by a perspective of "why worry about this lane's balance because this other lane has issues", the game would be a lot shittier.

I think part of that is that a) defensive/hybrid builds tend to have better dueling power than glass cannon builds. and b) the fact that top lane is an island means that they will spend more time farming lane, giving them more gold and XP.

so Classically speaking, if Our top laner pulls ahead of their opponent, they will be ahead of all opponents on the enemy team.
