What are the optimal 2-3 top laners to play to have no bad matchups?

Everyone has bad match ups. If you mean who can you first/blind pick without too much worry...I’d say Ornn and Morde are still firmly in that spot. It’s early to say but Urgot buffs may bring him back. My go to blind pick has been Mundo. Just fucking turtle shell early and become classic unkillable Mundo mid-late game

I agree, ornn and mord are pretty safe blind picks

Good blind picks:

Sett (he does decently against melees and can survive against ranged)

Aatrox (he has the tools to farm safely and waveclear even in tough situations)

Jayce, Quinn (only pick them if you're duo queuing with a jungler as they can be camped pretty easily and become pretty useless if they fall behind)

As a Yorick main I would say Yorick but he has bad matchups so my post is kinda moot. Just ban Trynd and if they pick Jax dodge. LMAO. The thing many people do not realize is how good Yorick is into all ranged mage and adc top matchups. He stomps mages its awesome.

Quinn, Trundle, Morde is my current go to.

Trundle is usually who I play. Goes well into nearly every matchup.

Quinn is great vs bruisers, and can wreck squishies.

Morde I rarely play, but when I do it's because my team needs AP.

Renekton's my go-to typically as he has the capability of fighting nearly anyone in lane, things only become hairy vs certain comps.

Sett is easily my favorite blind pick otherwise since he can just hold out bad lanes and decimate good matchups, on top of being a destructive teamfighter with the right engage.

Mordekaiser is just behind him, as he doesn't have a straight engage like Sett, but he can hold lane really well and punishes quite hard. I like him for melting enemy comps and his ult is a fantastic tool at turning the tide of battle.

Aatrox sett irelia

Obviously these champs have “counters” but their counters aren’t like fiora vs kennen counters where you just don’t get to play the game. The worst match ups they have are 40%-60% counters which is to say, they lose it, but if you are a bit better than the enemy counter you can win it fairly easily.

She’s my second most played in grandmasters so should I play her more to find out or? She’s not hard countered but any of those champs lol. She beats most tanks atm, has a skill mu into Darius jax and riven and is 40-60 with fiora. She’s just a hard champ people who aren’t as comfortable with her as they could be make her look weaker than she is.
