The unspoken rules of Top Lane

Gentleman Gems·2/1/2018, 3:45:45 AM·79 votes·5,265 views
  1. Don't pick singed first, pick him last, because if you pick him first your enemy will go into a range champion.
  2. If you pick and ADC top lane against a melee Top laner, you're an asshole; Unless it's against Darius, then you're masochist.
  3. Never underestimate the power of the scouts code
  4. If you're enemy steals your top laner from you, Go full AD Justice Man to properly punish
  5. If your opponent is playing Illoai, get an orange and pray.
  6. Don't tower dive rock monsters, or crazy dino riding yordles.
  7. Ham is the preferred meat of crazy dino riding yordles .
  8. If Yorick is missing, check your other lanes.
  9. If Darius is close enough to dunk you, he'e close enough to dunk you.
  10. Don't harras susan, she will bite back, and it will hurt.

16: if your lane opponent picks an aggressive fighter that you wanted to play simply play tahm kench and punish them if they do anything that remotely seems interactive.

19: If they are pushing, expect your jungler to go bot. If you are pushing expect a 3 man gank with nothing gained by your team except frustration.

once all these code of honor conditions have been fulfilled, no other laners shall rotate to top. let the top laners duke it out, for honor.

Did you mean "sadist" instead of masochist at number two OP? O_O

Sadist is the type that likes to bully others to some degree, masochist is the one that enjoys being bullied to a degree.

And i ask because as far as i know Darius is pretty terrible against ranged picks, so picking one into him could be considered sadistic.

And for my personal rule following the others in this thread x)

##18 : If enemy picks lee or another early game jungler, towerhug for all you are worth, least you become worth nothing x)

#9 is amazing.

#20: If you get auto-filled Top, take someone with a global ult (Shen, Karth, GP) and whatever you do, just don't feed.
