Why the hell Teemo is still hated nowadays?

War.War never changes.

Because they have more counterplay?

Shrooms. Are. The. Worst. Regardless of how powerful Teemo actually is, I hate seeing him in game, on either team.

Because Quinn and Graves don't scatter mushrooms around the map that cause you to yell 'Son of a bitch!' at the screen every time you step on one.

Because TEEMO IS SATAN LMAO >_< XDDDD

As a teemo main i can confirm nothing makes a team tilt more than a teemo that does well. I played a graves top and proceeded to show him who was the dead man walking

Uh. Base AP scaling on auto attacks probably.

It's the shrooms I can't really do anything about that are frustrating.

The blind is annoying (as in quinn/graves versions), but they're anticipated (and in the latter cases can be dodged). Shrooms on the other hand can be widely spread out, and relatively quickly replaced. One can try to use a sweeper/pinks to deal with them, but by using them on the shrooms then you can't also deny vision with them, and once again, the shrooms are widely spread out and easy to replace, so even sweeping an area doesn't mean there isn't a shroom right around the corner.

What's more, even knowing where the shrooms are is of limited help for the majority of champs, since the only counterplay is "don't walk here", which repidly becomes impractical as the number of shrooms accumulates. Champs with shields or who can spawn minions (eg yorick) can clear them, but most champs have their hands tied between giving up vision or just being zoned.

...I don't actually hate teemo as much as it probably sounds like.

Because he pokes you down from range with poison and stops your attempts to fight back with blinds while having more move speed than you which allows him to enter and leave engagements with relative impunity. Also when he hits 6 you are walking on eggshells as shrooms will take a sizeable portion of your hp.

Not saying Teemo is op or anything, but he is undoubtedly an annoying lane opponent whose specialty is whittling you down from range while avoiding direct confrontation, and he is good at what he does.

His entire kit involves lack of interaction and discourages teamwork Teemo's entire kit is designed to make him untouchable in lane. Once laning is over his teamfight potential becomes almost nonexistent, so he's reduced to being a weak version of the Techies from Dota. Bottom line, he pisses off both his team and the enemy team. tl;dr Teemo is bad

Who? I thought it was Lulu top all day.
