How the top lane is playing these days

[quote=Luther3000]I was just following my standard builds, though. Top lane is all about counterbuilding. If you had gone an AD champion, I would have rushed Wriggles and Ninja Tabi and probably a Chain Vest too. In fact I would have preferred that since Wriggles gives me even more sustain. Generally I would build a Giant's Belt on Gangplank and go Atma's into Warmogs. But I knew that was a very bad idea since Warwick's Q is % health based. I also don't usually build a Wit's End on lane Udyr, at least not that early.[/quote]

[quote=DuffTime]atmoggs GP over rated regardless :P It's not necessary, just one option. Critplank is just as viable, only forgotten.[/quote]

[quote=Luther3000]Imo not really, GP's Q alone isn't a good enough reason to build him squishy. His autoattacks are melee and you'll get killed if you try to go full squishyplank. I like going for Trinity Force if I'm ahead and/or don't feel like I really need to be tanky, though.[/quote]

[quote=DuffTime]I've played GP for eternities. You can build him with whatever Damage to Tanky ratio you want/need.[/quote]

[quote=Luther3000]Yee but I think if you try building say, IE + PD Gangplank without getting any health or resistances at all you're generally going to get destroyed by a competent enemy team. Might well work if you're way ahead or they somehow don't focus you, but otherwise I don't think so.[/quote]

[quote=DuffTime]Positioning is important on any squishy~[/quote]

[quote=Luther3000]Positioning is a lot easier when your attacks have 550-650 range than it is when your attacks have 125 range.[/quote]

[quote=Pølsemanden]Critplank is just as(if not more) viable as atmogs GP. U just need 1-2 items totally scaling through defence.[/quote]

[quote=DuffTime]It's stronger WAYYYY earlier too. That's the strength of it really. Atmogg's GP is better deep end game.[/quote]

[quote=Vapora Dark][quote=DuffTime] Well that's fuckin ironic, if a guy comes well prepared WW loses for free! *Shrug If you want my outlook on the subject, check my runepages. [/quote] You can see the enemy team has both a Warwick and a Gangplank, but you can't see which has smite. Who's solo top? And in the case that it's WW, what are the chances of him following my Q spamminig playstyle? ;) Just u wait. One day I'll be 10k Elo and you'll all be watching my streams as I play an invincible WW. >:) Also, critplank 4 life. Way better than tankplank. Killing tanks in 2 auto attacks ftw![/quote]
