A Top Laner is a player in the game of League of Legends who primarily occupies the top lane on the map. This role typically involves controlling a single lane, focusing on farming minions, and gaining experience and gold to become stronger. Top Laners often choose champions that can withstand damage and engage in fights, making them crucial for team battles. In addition to farming, Top Laners are responsible for creating pressure on the map. They can help their team by roaming to other lanes or participating in objectives like Dragon or Baron Nashor. Their performance can significantly influence the outcome of the game, as they often serve as the frontline during team fights.
