So I've noticed that no matter how much I kill Singed in a top lane, he manages to bounce back because of the nature of his poison. It helps him farm really well even under the turret and dissuades engagement on him.

Generally I really loathe seeing Singed in toplane, so I'd like some tips on how to deal with Singed. Maybe matchups or just ways to move about that can help against laning with Singed.

As somebody who plays a fair amount of Singed:

Vlad, Rumble, and Teemo all do really well vs him. Vlad has the range advantage and out-sustains Singed. Rumble can keep Singed from engaging if you place your harpoons well and his shield mitigates most of the poison's damage, while his flamethrower means he can trade with Singed while chasing him. Teemo's sustained damage is greater than singed, and his kit allows Teemo to kite singed.

Overall, the best way to deal with him is to deny him farm. I was in a match a while ago vs Rumble, and he let me push up and farm. While I couldn't kill him, he didn't even try to kill me, and the game ended up with the enemy team failing to kill me 3v1 and surrendering shortly after. Harass or engage him constantly when he goes for farm, while keeping singed out of melee if possible so he can't e+q you. Your goal should be to force him to base constantly to heal, and the moment he leaves push up the lane as hard as you can so he loses the xp from your creeps.

If he's under tower, DON'T go for a kill, because he'll either run away or kite you around tower. Just continue to harass him so that he can't safely farm. Keep wards down and watch for enemy ganks, and you should be able to shut him down pretty effectively.

All this said, Singed either outright beats or forces a lot of champs into farm lanes, which is almost always in his favor. If it comes down to getting counter picked, beg for ganks and hope for the best.

well the first question should be what do you main? because each person has a different strat against him but what the person said above is mostly correct.

I find that a good way to deal with high tenacity champions during fights is to have knockbacks on your team.

HARD cc in late game, and anyone with a good ranged attack or a lot of CC or good poking.

also if your gonna gank singed, make sure you never follow him under turret or even follow him for to long. there is a reason why they made a T-shirt advising people not to chase him. also, at low levels he can't spam flip or he runs oom and can't farm with his Q, so forcing him to flip twice, while seeming dumb, will burn all his mana.

Well typically I play Jayce, Pantheon, Jarvan, Malphite, Wukong and sometimes Zed top. Most often whenever I pick Pantheon, I run into a Singed. Now its not that Pantheon has trouble killing Singed, the trouble is that he seems to somehow be able to bounce back no matter how much I throw at him. I'm also a player who is really cautious about the jungle ganks, so most often I won't go ham unless I'm positive the jungler can't get to me easily.

Nidalee. She's faster than him, can avoid all of his skills, and has more damage.

Every time someone picks Singed I pick Nidalee or Teemo.

Ignore him and his poison trails.

Proceed to farm.
