That term Nooblord, is that a new thing people just started calling each other or has it been around for awhile? I've only heard it from a friend for the last week and I thought it was just a thing he made up.

Yeah Jax and Riven are sadly very hairy top lane choices not so much because the champs are bad they are very good but more because the players aren't very good.

I think they suffer the same problem. If the enemy is naturally tanky and is building armor and damage they can't take them in lane with just damage and no armor. This is doubled if they fall behind in farm. I was playing against a Riven as a Rumble in lane and ya know. Having seen a thousand RIven's before I knew how to juke the stun and get out of range of the dash.

And I would just pick away at her with flame spitter and harpoons anytime she got in range. When she would dive me it would be a distaster. No damage despite having brutalizer (I had a fully stacked Seeker's armguard with around 90 armor at that point) and some dorans and she would hurt me but not as badly as I would hurt her. I did so much damage that would have been prevented had she worn a hexdrinker.

She would have defeated me at least once if she had the sense in her head to counter build me.

I think that's what messes them up really. They don't know who they are facing in lane and they just build straight damage and get irrelevant real quick.
