His mega form is what you want
Since he becomes melee, he can't poke you or destroy your tentacles, so yeah. Aim for that
Beware though, he still can kill you depending on his runes
Jax
Weak early game against heavy damage dealers/tanks grants you the upper hand in lane phase.
Full build trades however...
Morgana
Her spell shield can actually block your E for some reason
So yeah, wait for it to fade or bait it out, and target someone else.
Also her CCs are annoying
Renekton
Annoyance
He can out-lane bully you, and has a more consistent way to poke and run to safety(especially when around minions)
Bait him into your tentacles, and smack his soul to oblivion
Darius
Either he land his skills or you land yours
Skill based lane phase
Vladimir
If it's a ranged champion, you're in for a surprise.
Annoying to deal with, but you should be able to sustain yourself against his basic combos.
Bait his blood pool if you want to guarantee trades
Akali
Pretty "Meh"
Unless you let her use her combo on you.
In any case, she needs to be close, Landing your E near tentacles/with ultimate up is vital to win trades. Without them don't even bother
Garen
Legit cancer to deal with
He somehow outdamages you in quick trades, and can take your combo thanks to his passive armor.
His silence and movespeed also prevent you from landing your tentacles
Overall, avoid being hit by his Q, because his execution can ruin your fights.
Kayle
As retarded as Tryndamere, but hers last less
To compensate that, she fights from afar, and can run faster from your ultimate range
Teemo
Filthy rat
Avoid being near him, since all decent Teemos will zone you away from anything
If he is your foe, rush merc threads
Fiora
Probably your hardest counter in top lane
She is too fast for you to effectively combo her, and her sustain is too annoying to deal with
Play safe and smart, and punish her pressure if possible. Trades shoudn't be that hard if you know what she can do(as a champion and as a player)
Caitlyn
Late game she is incredibly annoying to deal with as an Illaoi
She is one of the best champions to kite you to death, thanks to her massive range.
Still not worse than Vayne though
Twitch
Ultimate range is disgusting
Ask for assassins to deal with him
Tristana
Same as Twitch, just worse thanks to her ultimate
Vayne
If for some reason someone grabs her top, don't leave turret range unless you can burst her with a full combo(passive tentacles or ultimate, whatever)
Probably only matchup I would actually ask a gank for
Tryndamere
Give up hope
Either bait his ultimate, or sit under turret and ask for ganks
Either way, he will still outdamage you late game, and if your team doesn't have a consistent way to shut him down or lock him in one place, he will shred your armor like it's nothing
Somehow worse than Fiora
