A very concerned Teemo Main's perspective of the new preseason

Alright, I am honestly terrified of this new season. As it looks my favorite champ here, Teemo, is about to be nerfed into oblivion. The red trinket was already troublesome at best for his traps, being that it was a free item that disabled his ult. But now a cheap, permanent ward exists that disables them that can be placed before engaging and remove his ult from the scenario. The new version of Duskblade reveals them outright as well, and several new MR items exist that lower his damage further in already difficult matchups.

There was a great deal of concern for Quicksilver sash and how it disabled several champions ultimates for a somewhat low cost of 1350 gold. Yet we now have items that can do it too one for either free or a low investment that outweighs its costs significantly. The new ghostblade even gives champions a somewhat free partial pantheon passive, which is just brutal to him as well. I have hundreds of games on Teemo, and have always believed he could be played viably, but this upcoming patch has left me legitimately scared for the fate of the champion, especially when he is receiving no compensation for these changes. If anyone else has something to add, especially any other Teemo players, then please do, its looking ridiculously grim right now.

I honestly think that Teemo is getting a rework soon, he needs that VGU...

either way, teemo will be fine, I believe meddler said that the ward doesn't interact with champion's abilities but it does with other wards and probably zz rot

Did not think about this... Damn that's a harsh nerf. In league with the introduction of Sweeper and Scuttle nerfs. Teemo always being hit the unintentional nerfs with no compensation :/
