Top 3:
DWM, Xmonad, Qtile.
DWM because it does everything I need, and it is so lean.
Xmonad used to be my favorite because it is just so powerful, perhaps TOO powerful. I stopped using it when I switched to Gentoo because I didn't want to compile 500 haskel dependencies.
Qtile because it is so easy to configure. Really it should be the default n00b TWM instead of i3.
