Is Teemo Support Really Just Troll?

I know he has a tendency to snatch kills but it doesnt change the benefits he brings to an adc. Basically all the reasons that top didnt get ganked when teemo was there is now sent to bot. The same is true for enemy bot and more. The supp cant wonder randomly for fear of the dark lords shrooms to ward. He can screw w/ the enemy adc with the blinds as well. wait for them to come in to last hit and pop em. you win a trade and deny farm. and while your torturing this poor team no one dares interfere for fear of being caught in a minefield and quite possibly killed, unsure if they could even escape sometimes if your smart about your shroom placement. All this while your adc is having a delightful minion feast, w/ not a care for the outside map.

To sum it up. Anything teemo fails to provide that a traditional support could is made up for with the absolutely disgusting zoning he forces on the enemy team. plus if you even get a few kills and assists one or two items is enough to make this possible and basically claim some jg along with a lane.

Um...no? Teemo's been considered a Support since Season 3.

It's pretty troll and good supports will punish it but if you are having fun doing it and winning, go for it

No, Teemo is a yordle, Trundle is a troll. There is a big difference. :)

I think Teemo might work fine as support, but I am an ARAM only player, so what do I know?

Nothing troll about it. you can play any champ in any position.

Teemo can provide meaningful things as a support, but it is different than what most traditional supports would provide (cc, healing, shielding).

If you're giving it your best effort to win then it's not trolling. Teemo can be strong if played well into certain situations from the support position as well, but in several other circumstances he will struggle if he does not play a matchup all that well.
