Top lane is the least fun role

Remember when top lane was a skill orientated lane, even with the big 4 (Renekton, Riven, Nasus, Darius)? Those were the good times where player's mechanic and knowledge mattered and where early, mid and late game were divided into balanced portions allowing all types of champs to shine. Fast forward it now where even if there's a skill difference, most toplane matchups are impossible to win due to how few viable pick exists. What used to be bruiser lane is now an infestation of tanks, and marksmen. Want to play Jax, RIven, Irelia top? You can't because the moment you do, they will choose Ornn, Illaoi, or Maokai. Play a them? Then they will pick Jayce or Gnar or even Corki denying you all chances of counterplay. Need help from jungler? Your jungler won't give a single fuck because bot lane is all that matters. When you win your lane, and your bot lane loses, you would lose the game. When you lose the lane and your bot wins the game for you, it doesn't feel like a win because your contribution meant absolutely nothing. At least with mid lane, mages/assassins do provide some sort merit to their team like a hyper scaling veigar or a utility bot like Orianna/Anivia, or even a decently set up Kat/Ekko. You can't do that as a traditional top laner. When was the last time you saw someone like Riven/GP/Garen hard carry a game? Season 4?

I had a game last season where I was playing mid, with my top laner either a GP or Garen against a Draven counter pick. It was no surprise that the Draven was winning top lane. When my top lane ask for jungle ganks, the response was "ur lane doesn't matter". The Draven eventually got one kill and snowballed out of control because he was not a traditional top laner, and it was in the ardent censor meta.

Riot should enforce a meta if they have to like how they forced junglers to take smite and build jungle item. (For you new bloods, there was a time where jungling could be cloth + 5 pots or dorans or heart of gold instead of madreds and you still won't be considered a troll).
