Can Teemo please not be allowed in ranked.

He is useless and only drags a team down. Hes a complete troll champion who offers nothing besides early cheese, but een then other champions do it better. Teemo is nothing but a detriment to the team hes on and practically turns the game into a 4v5. Please make him unavailable for ranked play.

Should we also make Yorick, Morde and Gallio unallowed too?

/s

I'm trying to remain polite, but you, dear sir, are a meta sheep. Let people play what they want. If they think they can do better on Teemo than on Ekko, because they know their champ, you're probably better letting them play Teemo...

NO lol I'm not a meta sheep, I really don't care who they play, except teemo. Too many times my games have been lost because my top decided to pick him and feed, it's absurd. He offers nothing, he's without a doubt one of the most useless champions.

Teemo is sure NOT a troll champ, and any one that took him and fed in your games is also being a troll, unless they actually are that bad. You are being a meta sheep. Teemo can be mega useful especially if he gets fed. Great zoning potential with shrooms, one of the best split pushing games, etc.

i think you are just a biased hater. It's like my hate for Zed, but at least I know he can bring some things to the table, and not every Zed player will be awful either.

I'm not a meta sheep. Teemo can not be useful, he's awful. He brings nothing, absolutely nothing. Besides annoyance for both sides.

I checked your lolking to see what your super useful mains are.

And I hate to break it down to you, but as of 6.13 average Teemo wins way more games than average Fiora, and even more than average Sion.

Weiner the Pooh1 votes

Win rate means nothing to be honest.

Fiora is by far a more difficult champion than Teemo, so naturally she is going to have a lower win rate. Secondly, Fiora brings a far more potent split push threat and a guaranteed way to break through tanky characters while also being able to catch out targets extremely efficiently.

Sion has ridiculous engage, peel and presence in a fight with his cc and overall meatshieldiness as well as peel and to some degree disengage. He can lockdown most targets and keep others out of a fight. And seriously, saying Sion isn't useful is such a joke, he brings so much.

All Teemo does is bring early cheese and slight map control, very very slight. Especially pre 6 he's ultra vulnerable to ganks and can't really assist his jungles in ganks either. Teemo tp ganks are awful, Teemo team fight presence is awful, his dueling potential post 15-20 minutes is awful he's just awful. He's a noob trap that doesn't belong in ranked. Picking him is just asking your team to hate and if you don't go off you're less than useless. All he is is a global taunt.

Hold up, you started out saying he basically made the game a 4v5, a situation that's difficult to win, yet his win rate means nothing? Fiora keeps it a 5v5, but looses to a 4v5-ish team?

Sorry, but if Teemo was worthless his win rate would show it. Either his "very very slight" map control is far more important than you realize or you've just had bad Teemos on your team.

If winning a game as Teemo is easier than winning it as Fiora, he clearly is not useless.

SnugglePuggle943 votes

Yup. It's confirmed. Just a biased hater.

Again, Teemo is more useful than you think.

Weiner the Pooh1 votes

But he's not. He's really really not.

SnugglePuggle941 votes

He is. He really really is.

He isn't a meta sheep, just a troll lol.

Weiner the Pooh1 votes

No, I'm really just sick of losing games because of Teemo. There is nothing I can do when my team locks him in. It's a guaranteed loss.

zlumpy1 votes

Do what I do. If it really annoys me I dodge. I dodge Zed, most teemo games (based on team comp), and again just really really bad team comps.

I'm not playing a game where my team is almost all squishy single target champs into like 4 or 5 massive aoe ult champs. They could be the best players in the world at those champs but I would still dodge because it won't be fun for me.

And you know what? The only person punished for my choice is me in those scenarios.

Yeah, though his point is not wrong in that Riot has made it clear they don't want teemo to be a strong champion.

FiddlesOnTheRoof1 votes

Galio is actually a very strong champion. Morde is also capable of being highly effective. Teemo and yorick are garbage and should be disabled in ranked

DeathBurst1 votes

Spoiler: I play Morde. I play Garen, too. And I've got the same kind of stupid remarks for both, "noob champ", "useless", etc. So I don't play Teemo, but I'm pretty sure a good Teemo can bring a lot to his team, just like every champ. Maybe not in Diamond or Challenger, but anything below that, you can play basically anything, and player skills are far more important than champion objective power levels. Because no one is able to play at the maximum objective power level of a champ below Diamond.

(OK, mayyyybe Yorick is an exception, because he's broken to the point of not being included in the free rotation ever. But even that, I'm not 100% convinced.)

He is the best splitpusher in the game. Better than Nasus and Trynd because of shrooms.

zlumpy1 votes

Soon to be replaced with Ryze :P.

Also TF is pretty damn awesome at split pushing.

Look how useless he is.

Splitpush teemo carries the game with 2 feeders against a fed Vayne.

Teemo carries the game against fed Taliyah with lost bot lane and lost mid lane with enemy udyr camp on top lane

Please tell me something honestly. Do You Really Think Riot Will Even Consider This?

Weiner the Pooh1 votes

No but its nice to hope.

MissFishbones1 votes

I duo with a guy i met on league a few months ago and he mains teemo. He never feeds, always wins lane and when he doesnt feel like he's doing good in lane he just farms until he gets strong enough. He has different masteries for different enemies, different builds and reactions. I cant tell you how many times he killed people just by putting his shrooms in the perfect places. He also protects us from the adc by blinding their autos.

A good teemo can bring a lot to the team: annoyance for the other team, poison, blind and shroom.

Just because you came across some feeders doesnt mean that the problem is with the champion itself. I can proudly say that teemo carried my friend out of bronze

Colgate Gator1 votes

Teemo can be useful, and as far as I know he isn't in an utterly horrible place ATM with the itemization and buffs he has had. His whole game is to shut down the enemy top laner and map control though, you can't really play in the same way as you would a normal laner.

Insert comment about the challenger Jungle Teemo main whose name I don't remember

bad idea.

Dumb request

Silly Neeko1 votes

To think, Teemo has slows with shrooms that he can use relatively safely most of the time, damage from those shrooms, not to mention it works amazing with Liandries Torment for tanks. He has a blind that stops all auto attacks, he can literally just pop out of nowhere to turn a potential 1v1 into a 2v1 shutting off the enemy auto attacks (which pretty much cuts adc's into nothing for as long as they are blinded)..... and has massive movement speed from his W passive, and then activate it for more to get you out of a fight if needed.

People have complained more about Bards being horrible or Nami in lower elo, or pretty much any squishy support. Bards for always ultiing horribly or trolling, or those squishy supports for not being "played correctly" either too aggressive or not aggressive enough.

You are really just upset by newbies or trolls playing Teemo. You can argue all you want but you have no basis of truth about how "useless" Teemo is. Play against a real Teemo and you will dread the day you played that game.

Enjoy your Teemo hating, but love him or hate him, you still think about him.
