So, what are some toplaners that can carry?

Blitzidious··1 votes·486 views

Besides Fiora, and a few others, such as Darius(Already own him). I'd like to know, because, at this rate, I probably won't get a single win for the next two weeks. Quite a bold statement, I know. But, with the rate in which I'm getting paired up with, needless to say, braindead players(not meant as an insult), I doubt I'm going to get anything close to a win without taking things into my own hands. I heard Gnar could work for what I'm striving for, but, who else? Besides cheese tactics like Quinn top, or Vayne top. I've been considering saving up for Illaoi, but I know I'll hate myself for choosing her, as she's a champion I strongly dislike. I feel disgusting for even considering putting people through that. :p (Jokes, ya know?)

I naturally look for Champions that have a decent amount of utility, and don't need to snowball to be effective later on. Probably asking for too much there, but, if anyone knows what could fit, please inform me.

Juggernauts and high damage champions (Riven, Olaf damage build, etc.) mainly. There are a few tanks that can "carry" if they get ahead, but it's less so actual carrying, more just being a big wall that makes it hard for the enemy team to do anything. My fave for that last qualification is Nautilus. If you get the chance to build a RoA and an Abyssal Scepter, you can usually take out enemy carries with your ult and hook.

I'll probably pick up Nautilus. I love tanky champs, especially when they have a crap ton of CC.

Shen through global presence early and mid game. Good peel and decent damage late game.

-Straight Carries- Trynd via split push. Pantheon via map presence. Quinn via damage/team fight/split. Gangplank via damage/team fight/split. Xin Zhao better in Jg but has strong carry potential. Wukong teamfight, picks, damage, splits.

These are your top lane carries that are hard carries. That does mean they do need to snowball and they need farm/kills to carry. You cannot top lane carry without getting the resources you need to do that.

On the flip side, I would check your stance towards your teams. They might not be the best, but statistically, they are comparable to you. Here are some other champs that can help enable your team.

-High Utility Picks- Malphite - His ult makes it really obvious when it is time to fight. Has good utility. Rumble - Ults are game changers. Not as good now due to less dragon contests/more turret emphasis. Wukong- Listed above but he is also a great initiator if your team lacks one.

What actually matters most is just learning and mastering one or two champions. Try to get 80% of your games on your main champion. Learn one champion really well and you will climb.

I usually go with initiators, peelers(poppy and such), It's just that recently I've gotten a large amount of teams that don't work together, I can try all I want, I can put those cutesy smiley faces after every message, I can be supportive, even when they're twenty cs behind, and gave their snowbally laner three kills(happens frequently. :C) Now, if my post came off as me saying "It's all my teams fault that I keep losing", than I should've clarified that this is not the case, I blame myself more than my team for, like, everything. Even things that are out of my control. I second guess myself too much. Like, I was pushing top, my team was at drag, with a ward placed. Everything looked fine, but I considered teleporting in as soon as I see an enemy, I didn't of course, as the tower was low, and I thought, "They don't need me there, they got it secured." Of course, I wasn't wrong about the secured dragon, but three of the enemy team went in and took out our adc and midlaner, I was just stuck in the thought, 'Great job fucktard, if you would've when down there, there'd be a chance of them living. This was one of my Swain games, can't recall if we won that or not, but I know that I hated myself for the rest of that match. :p

My three mains, or, my best three, Swain, Pantheon, and Singed. I'm also decent at Garen, but, who isn't?
