Need to find suitable top lane champions
Hallo! I need assistance in finding champions that are often found in the top lane. I am a Support main that prefers poke-oriented champs like Sona and Karma. I am playing also in the mid lane which I prefer champions with burst damage like Ahri and Lux. Currently, I am using Kayle as my current champion when I am in top lane. I have plans also to try Kennen and Lulu in top lane. Is my selection okay, or do you have any suggested top lane champs that I should try on? Anyway, I play ranked games, and have a significant success.
Mages such as Morgana, Cassiopeia, Annie, Lissandra, Kennen and Vladimir are all playable top and can make the transition into that role easier for you, but I'd encourage you to try some of the tanks / melee bruisers after a while too, just to get used to the difference in playstyle and expand your knowledge as a player. Irelia would probably be a good champion to start with if you're interested in trying that out.
She is very solid on top lane especially if in 1v1 situations and even in 2v2 situations if both teams don't have junglers and even if u are in 1v2 situations you will get your ult early which should help you get at least one of them easily and your jungler can help with the other one
but u will havve issues at mana running out early game. just recall and regenerate it and everything should be okay

And an other viable choise in my opinion is Shen he is easier to learn and hard to feed with and with your ult can help snowball lanes easier. But if you finding sucess with Kayle i think won't give him up.
I personally really like to play champions without mana, so Vladimir fits that perfectly well. He can poke all day long, he is relatively safe due to his pool and his sustain, and he never really has to leave lane unless he wants to or he is getting dominated really hard.
He also has an easy time farming under the turret with his Q, so if your opponent is pushing, you don't lose too much CS.
He also doesn't get played a lot, so people sometimes won't know what to do against him.
The only disadvantage here is that Vladimirs range is not that great. You will get used to that pretty quickly though.
Another really solid pick in my opinion is Kennen. No mana, pokes all day, has a decent escape if things go wrong and is amazing in almost every team comp that you can imagine. Even if you are behind, your ult will still be extremely useful due to the buff it received a few months ago.
