@70.30.70.63 Wow, I don't even know what to sat. That post is flawed in so many ways... You're probably one of those guys who just wants to play solo lanes all day because it's 1 vs 1 and blames the jungler after losing.

Top lane mechanics are COMPLETELY different from mid lane mechanics. Mid lane is essentially about power farming and roaming while top lane is focused on trading and zoning. Elise is stupidly broken in top lane because she pokes like a Yorick and brawls like an Irelia. There is no other champion at the moment who can zone like Elise while simultaneously having kill potential over 95% of the matchups. Why would anyone put Elise mid when she's not a proper mage? Her AP scalings are terrible and there's not much point focusing on AP besides building a Rylai's and magic penetration items. Lane bullies like Elise and Rumble excel at top lane and there's a ton of reasons why you don't see them in mid lane at all. But sure, go ahead and send your mid laner top just to deal with her. What could possibly go wrong with having Lux, Twisted Fate or Ahri top. I'm sure they wouldn't be free food for junglers, lmao. Not to mention they'd still lose to Elise because their turrets isn't 5 steps behind them.

Learn to think or something.
