First of all, you have to choose the role in which you want to evolve. The choice of champions will be greatly reduced since they are not made to be played in all roles, far from it. There are, of course, intrepid people who exceed these limits, but we strongly advise against indulging in such experiments if you are new to LoL.
The champions to start well in top lane on LoL
In the case of the toplane, the vast majority of them are fighters, or tanks. In short, champions capable of taking maximum damage, while representing a serious danger for the weakest opponents. Like many tanking-oriented characters, these often have controls. They are located at the top of the map and are, in theory, less susceptible to ganks, as they are more resistant.
Briefly, here is the list of champions to get off to a good start in toplane :
If you want additional information, we explain why these champions are, in our opinion and currently, suitable for start as a toplaner on LoL.
The champions to start well in top lane on LoL
Garden
He is THE starting character par excellence for this role. Garden brings together (almost) all the essential qualities of a good toplane champion thanks to a very complete kit. Its simple mechanics make it possible to have a significant impact in the game without deploying treasures of technical mastery.
As for tanking and lane holding, Garen combines the regeneration of his passive with the many defensive statistics of his W. From an offensive point of view, he is not left out, his Q allows you to charge and to silence the enemy and his E provides consistent damage for relatively little effort since it is enough to be close to the enemy. The ultimate is an execution that ignores enemy defenses, a radical solution that completes a very complete kit.
maokai
A kind of tank archetype specialized in controls. maokai has tools that allow him to spend a comfortable lane phase without putting himself in too much danger, but also to be decisive during the teamfight phases. His spells are either targeted or hard to miss, making him a good pick to get into smooth non-target skills.
As Gardenif maokai is also effective, it is also thanks to his passive which heals him and allows him to stay on the lane for a long time. All of his spells offer controls, from slowing his E, to pushing back his Q, to immobilizing his W. Finally, his ultimate, despite its low speed, is one of the best tools of the game to bring mass controls into a team fight. Finally, almost all his ratios evolve with his HP, the more tanky you are, the stronger you are.
Teemo
Although they are not the majority of champions in this role, we find some remote characters among the historical top laners. If you want to embark on this atypical path, Teemo is probably the best way to start. Almost all of its damage is targeted and its many passive effects will allow you to focus on the essential mechanics for ranged characters.
Teemo is the ideal character to get familiar with ambushes, thanks to his passive and his R which allows him to place mushrooms anywhere on the map. His Q gives him a considerable advantage over all basic attacks based champions. Finally, his W makes him a fast champion in all circumstances to easily stay away from enemies.
