Top 7 toplane champions that will dominate meta at League of Legends Worlds 2022
On September 21, 2022, the League of Legends Worlds 2022 will begin. Though there is still one more incoming patch, Riot Games is leaning towards the idea that they should not shift the meta too much, instead tuning potentially overtly powerful champions.
The current League of Legends meta and the meta from the playoffs should remain in place for the next few weeks until the Worlds 2022 begins.
The top lane is a unique role in League of Legends, filled with a variety of classes of champions. Tanks, bruisers, ranged carries, and split push champs are a class of champions that can be expected to be picked in pro play.
The top lane pick is often saved for the final pick in professional drafts. This role has the most complex counters in the game, meaning a massive draft advantage could be gained.
Let's get into some of the most likely champions to be picked either blindly or as a counter.

Since his release in League of Legends Season 7, Ornn has been a solid top lane pick. Most recently, he was crowned the most blindable top laner in the current meta.
His ability to build items while in lane allows him to get the tools he needs to deal with any counter-pick. Ornn is content with losing lane, knowing he can upgrade his teammates' items in the late game while providing the most crowd control.
Aatrox is another champion that can be blinded since he has multiple itemization options and a constant ability to outplay opponents. He does well surviving ganks with his ultimate and can scrim with the best champs in the game.
If the recent playoffs are any indication, Aatrox will be one of the most popular picks at the Worlds 2022.
