Top lane is a mess

Top lane is in a terrible spot right now. There’s champs like Riven who dominate everything in the role and as champions and then there’s champs like aatrox who can do seemingly nothing special in the role. Can we get more consistency in the lane? I’d love to have a more diverse group of top laners that I could play besides 3-4 picks being insanely strong then the rest being under performing. My suggestion is to change conquerer or remove it in favor of fervor of battle or a different rune that would help more than just a handful of AD casters but the whole of Top lane duelists, and change tank items so that they can scale better into the late game so they can match with their opposing laners.

So as a fellow top lane main I'm gonna give you some advice. Never ever believe top lane will be perfect. There's are around 50+ champions that can play top lane. There will always be a very powerful must ban top laner, right now it's riven, awhile ago Garen was what you didn't want to play against, now he's fine. Top laners itemization is also super wide, armor, health, magic resist, damage, a hybrid of two or more. Conqeror is in a fine place for me right now, reason being I think the champions that can use it were severely narrowed. Like now, tryndamere would rather take lethal tempo, Yasuo isn't amazing with conqeror right now, and neither is camille. Riven is good because of conqueror and not the other way around, it simply works well with her. This doesn't feel like a top lane rant, it feels like a riven/conqueror rant
