It hasn't even been that long since players realized how good the defense tree is for laning in top lane and they're already trying to fuck around with it. Riot jumps the gun way too much way too fast.



I think thats okay in this case. Once you fell behind especially in the early levels. You can find yourself at a two level disadvantage and no fucking chance to come back. The enemy just stalls the wave near his tower when you try to kill creeps.
You are going to die.


Minion masteries only matter for stalling if you push so hard that there's an extra large creep wave they need to tank. Otherwise they only need to hold off 2-4 minions briefly, and then simply exercise patience. Minion masteries save them maybe 24 health off the initial stall, after which inertia handles the rest.

Focusing on minion masteries in an attempt to fix the snowball issues top lane is like worrying about the price of gas when you chose to drive a stretch Hummer to work.


I feel a lot of the snowball is just on the denying of experience. Levels are just so powerful that it's hard to come back from a one or two level down considering you lost the foothold to begin with. I'd definitely want the catch up rate to be better, it would definitely help teams that are behind in general. Top lane isn't the only lane guilty of this, it's just the little island that people never go to.

After all those nerfs on minion damage to champions we're starting to backtrack now.

All it does is get me to the main screen but I can't click on anything, I have 0RP/IP and then a box pops up and says 'an unexpected error has occurred/'
Can't do shit.

soul shroud is bad and WoTA will be bought from the mid/top player and is expensive for a support

I agree. Rincent has been using reduced minion damage on kayle for quite a while now.

if you're talking about an aura item that you can buy as a support for your caster, it's definitely wota. the aura stacks with your mid's wota, which adds a ton of survivability for them. doesn't hurt you either, if you're a support that can output sustained damage (sona, soraka)

Spellvamp definitely does not benefit Sona/Soraka. Too little damage, plus it's reduced due to multitarget.

When I have an Attack Champion in toplane => Zeke
When I have an AP Champion in toplane => ??? because he will buy wota two with mid wota. We already have 2 WotA. 3rd does not make sense because the aura ist wasted.

WoTA costs only 400 more than zekes, if your jungler gets oracles you get your wota. If your issue is that the top/mid buy it, then even if they make a new AP aura item, the mid/top will most likely buy it.

Locket, shurelyas, soul shroud(if poking a lot for example), aegis, and zekes is still good because your carry does all the damage late.

WotA isn't so great anymore (for the carrier) that every single AP should buy it. If you have double AP and enough gold to buy an aura item for them on the support, tell your APs to get more "selfish" items (Cap, Hourglass, DFG...) because you'll be getting WotA.

Most of the time you should be more worried about buffing your ranged AD though.
If you have a good reason to disagree with the above, please tell me. Thank you.
