It depends if you're looking at lane only or fullgame usefulness. I've got my *** kicked enough times by Garen who then proceeded to fail in every TF. And I've won my lanes bigtime vs Tryndamere who then carried his team to victory...

But I would go with Olaf, Cho, Tryndamere, Shen or Yorick. But personally I enjoy Renekton the most, he just synergises so well with jungle ganks because of his speed and stun.

Poppy is the new OP top laner. So much free armor and so hard nuking power. And if played aggressively early, she beats Olaf.

Evelynn has always been #1 top pick. Nobody plays her because the opponents always ragequit.

I just got into Riven solo top and i must say i'm surprised how good she is. Strong early game, can poke, 2 soft cc/interupts to help out/escape ganks. Mid game she is strong in ganking and can demolish minion waves so easily to make pushing harder. Late game in a good situation she gets so strong and has such short cooldowns that it's not even funny. I mean who doesn't love a 0.5 sec mini stun every 4.5 seconds :D. Perfect to counter channeling spells. As far as others go i think shen is pretty good, but udyr imo is very hard to counter.

When poppy combos you, you're lucky to get one reckless in. She activates w and is off before retaliation. Just going w to run in and q you hits harder than reckless I think too. How to counter that?

You can sustain off creeps though so poppy have to be aggressive to make it work.

If you for some reason want to follow my ranked journey to gold, you can do it Here.

I am against asking for rep, only rep me if you think I contributed well or said something wise.
