My main issue with top lane Sejuani is that she is a worse Malphite there. Malph is a good counter to some top champions (Riven and Irelia are the two most popular that he does well against) at all stages in the game. He has comparable amounts of CC to Sejuani, but he has a much much better laning fase. He is worse at ganking than Sej is, so Sej is probably a better tank initiator to pick for the jungle, but he definitely is a much better laner than Sej.

Also, in my experience, Sejuani has the same issues as top lane Singed (bad 1v1 and zero poke) while having atrocious waveclear, which is Singed's only good point (outside of following up ganks, which Sej does too). And Singed is not that popular anymore for a reason...

And yes, unless you go like full armor rune page (in which case, let me present you a champion you might preferr: Rammus) Sej gets maimed by jungle monsters in her first clear and that makes her extremely weak against any sort of invade. Lee kills Sejuani at red 100% of the time if he comes from his red. No flashing will save Sej.
