Statement: There is not a single bruiser that can do anything against him in lane.
Fact: Bruisers don't auto win every matchup. VS a teemo, just sit under tower and farm, and wait for him to fuck up and take tower shots or call jg for easy kill. FORCE HIM TO OVEREXTEND AND LIKE ANY RANGED TOP HE WILL LOSE LANE.
-
Statement: His dmg is stupidly high, he's stupidly tanky
Fact: He either has high dmg OR he's stupid tanky, OR something in between. Only when he gets hard fed in lane can both of these be true. A teemo who loses lane loses game.
-
Statement: Stand in melee range, kill a bruiser
Fact: Then just.... don't....? Stay out of his range. Darius' E pull is farther than teemo auto range and about equal with his Q, if you play it right you decimate him. But once again, he has to be on YOUR side of the lane!!! BRUISERS CANT FIGHT TEEMO ON HIS SIDE OF LANE, HE CAN RUN TOO EASY WITH W. Sett's E (thats the pull right? HAven't played him yet) is also longer than Teemo's auto AND Q range.

Statement: MR is the most useless stat in the game
Fact: OK I know you're super tilted right now, but come on... MR is incredibly useful-- just like armor and literally any other stat-- in CERTAIN situations. If you think MR is useless vs teemo, it's probably because you are building the wrong MR item vs him. Adaptive Helm works good, so does HexDrinker if your champ is chill with building that. Get a nullifying orb as well in your runes, works wonders when he walks away thinking poison will kill you.
FINALLY:
Teemo is useless without his Q, ESPECIALLY pre 6. Wait for him to use it on you before a fight, or better yet when he uses it to farm. Then all in him. Pay attention to lane, EVEN WHEN YOU'RE IN BASE, post 6 and watch his shrooms. With practice, you can remember upwards of 10 shroom placements in lane. If you want a counter to teemo, and hate going bruiser into him, I suggest Quinn. Hit teemo with your Q before he hits his, get some poke, and run. He'll get maybe an Auto>Q on you, but he'll be 1/2 HP by the time your blind is over.
Thank you for coming to my ted talk, I really hope I helped you and remember- dont get tilted, get ANGRY and YEARN for the day when you CRUSH THEM!
