That all depends on who the top is. Plenty of tops actually do have ranged moves or CC to use to punish you for walking up to the minion swarm (After all you have to use E on a target in order for the attack to go off) Yorick and Vladimir comes to mind. So does Pantheon who sort of has a stronger dueling kit. Renekton. Jax. Irelia. I'm not saying you can't beat these guys ever. You'd just have the odd stacked against you.

You will run out of mana really quickily if you harass with E. The shield gets better with the over all health you have acquired. But like I said. Armor is the better choice. 3000 health, 190 armor and 150 magic resistance would be enough tankiness to carry a team although It never hurts to consider something really shreddy or sticky like Black Cleaver or Frozen Mallet.
