(Correct me if I'm wrong guys) but I think Doran's shield is better when you can fight
equalliy and seek for trades/fights. Cloth armor start is to outsustain the enemy.

I wouldn't go Doran's Shield against AD top laners ( Cloth Armor gives more pots and is way safer). You could consider shield if you take Teleport and/or are up against someone who doesn't deal much physical damage outside autoattacks or doesn't have a great all-in.
Doran's Shield is a fairly cost-efficient item for early survivability but it doesn't give enough sustain to warrant starting with imo unless you're not too worried about getting harassed out of lane.

Thanks to The_Nameless_Bard for the sig!
Take Doran's Shield or Doran's Blade if you play an aggressive champions that will trade a lot.
like Jax, Renekton, Darius.
If you are an underdog take Cloth Armor with x 3 healing potion.
like Dr. Mundo, Urgot, Singed.

I new here and doesn't really know how to code yet ..
Just wanna ask you a newbie question ..
When is the time that you would go for a Dorans Shield rather than a Cloth Armor against an AD Top ?
