The difference if is you want a melee with nice scalings on all skills, who is very mobile with 4 little dashes, and one of the strongest top laners in the game (as long as you play agressive), or an AP caster who has not very good AP scalings, but makes up for that with a triple dash and a charm. It should be noted that she can also be played AD (she has a higher range and attack speed than Graves, a hard cc and a triple dash), but I'd not recommend that in solo queue because not everyone knows it.
