You can do anything with anybody. Don't limit yourself. You must also keep in mind that there are champions that do certain things far beyond the potential of others...

Which is precisely why Ezreal top's not a very good idea.

Learn the true S3 op, Tryndamere!

if you want to play double AD, which is perfectly viable in this meta if you have the right jungler, then go for it. top 3 ADs top right now are probably kayle, ezreal, and graves. also when built properly ezreal is one of the best lategame carries right now imo, and he CAN stomp a lot of lanes top, the only champs that are really strong vs him are the ones that are good vs range and of course high burst casters, ie riven, lee, vlad, kennen, etc..

also ezreal is a really fun champ so that helps


Thanks to Xiaowiriamu for the sig!

y well... I used to play varus and trist top.
Problem is that you need some1 that can actually tank sth.
so you'll need a jungler like naut and an urgot on bot would be awesome

it's not bad but you can't rly play it that often - even tho ez has arcane shift he can't escape that well
I'd imagine any decent toplaner would stomp him with most champs:
ire, riven, jax, kennen, lee gapclosing champs that is. And since most toplaners have a gapcloser it's kind of difficult - even tho you got the range advantage which makes lasthitting + harassing easier

Quoted:

Then of course this was brought out ages ago.
People have done this with Vayne and Corki ages ago.


Regi got to #1 on Solo queue with top Corki in s1 looool.

Looky here, there is a word called GAP CLOSERS or two words...
Ezreal wanted top and I was Tryndamere. I said alright, I will bot with Lux. We dominated bot lane and Ezreal went 1/10/2.
CC Ezreal down once and/or silence him, he is dead.
There is a reason why Urgot is a good top. He is BULKY, HUGE LOCK ON RANGE, SLOWS, SHIELDS, AWESOME ULT, RIDICULOUS DAMAGE.

Thanks to Xiron and ProAsylum (Ignition) for the amazing signatures!
If I helped out with constructive criticsm, I would appreciate a +rep

The reason Urgot wins top lanes is because landing E can cost your enemy the majority of their HP in damage. The shield and damage debuffer just make him even better in 1v1's.

Then to top it all off, his ulti makes him one of the best gank buddies ever.

urgot is just too strong right now -.-

edit - also yes... there are a lot of tops who **** on ranged. that is the whole reason the old meta shifted into going bot with a support. that doesn't mean that double AD doesn't work with the right comps.


Thanks to Anal Samurai for the sig!
