So, I played against a Teemo today...

This is not a QQ thread (ok maybe a little) as I won the game and even got a penta in it but still... (Sion penta op. Squash half of them with the ult. Teemo at first. Damn that felt good...). But whya do we even have that champion? He does not win games. He does not contribute anything relevant to the mid and lategame and all he does is ruining someones lane phase...

While he was COMPLETLY irrelevant in mid and lategame the early game was absolute hell. I was playing as Sion and usually I'm completly fine with ranged champs at top. They are so squishy that my Q shreds them to pieces once I catch them. But even with that the Teemo was so fucking annoying to play against.

Well, i wouldn't be complaining here if the Teemo did anything spectacular or proved his superior skill to win the early lane. No. Rightclick, sometimes a Q and even more rightclick. That dude was so bad, he NEVER used his passive even ONCE, and yet he could put up so much pressure. There shouldn't be champion in the game that can be played with so little skill but be so annoying.

I kinda felt bad for his team, because I knew, even if this teemo gets fed as fuck, their team would be playing 4vs5 later, mostly because there is nothing teemo can do. And the recent changes on PBE do not change that. You can get fed with almost every champ apart from Bard and they will hit like a truck. Even Soraka. Ever seen full hp soraka heals? Those things make your team immortal. Teemo on the other hand? Well... nothing.

Teemo is literally the answer to the questions:" how does range vs. melee work? And why is it percieved so toxic sometimes?".

We really need a rework here.

The best idea would be to make him all about manually triggered traps that need him to be close to work. He's supposed to be a guerillia fighter, not a blowdart-dispenser...
