Teemo Rework?

IMHO, Teemo should be near, or at the top of the list for reworks. After the river crab and mushroom ratio nerf, Teemo feels unplayable in ranked. He was mainly played for his shrooms. He is not tanky enough, and he does not have enough mobility or long enough auto attack range to be played as an assassin properly. His kit is out dated and needs some love. Feedback please?

He can't be reworked, that's the thing. He's reached hardcore meme status. If Riot could maintain his identity while also making him viable, he'd be monstrous. https://youtu.be/bjE4gjK9NEE?t=6m28s

I recall talk about such things. They want to preserve his Identity as, "Being Satan."

His Passive is worthless, I would swap it out with his toxic shot. making it an active component in his kit. But that might make him too much like Twitch. I think he should have more scouting tools, to better match his title as "The Swift Scout."

At the moment, his kit his strong, balanced as a Gorilla tactics champion. The problem is, Gorilla tactics arn't really robust enough to make them competitive in league. He gets trounced in lane, too weak to Jungle. About the only way you can play him is as a support.

Best thing they can do is do what they did with Nidalee and make him a jungler.

He is too gimmicky right now, all he does is go top and stomp 99% of toplaners early game due to the nature of his kit. He doesn't really fit in any other lanes, and he is still a pretty shitty toplaner as it is, and they can't outright buff him because his kit makes for a toxic laning phase.

So lets give him the Nidalee treatment and make him go jungle! That way people don't have to deal with his gimmicky and toxic kit in lane, and jungle duty fits him anyways. One of his strengths is jungle control with shrooms, let's play on that. He is the swift SCOUT, he should be roaming around anyway, not sitting in lane making some poor guy miserable.

please list what makes him bad cuz hes basically a marksmen assassin so hes not ment to be tanky he does have a speed up and a blind and poison plus a smart teemo can litter a lane full of shrooms and he has a longer range than graves and lucian so please what makes him bad and what would you do to change him cuz as it is you really seem like a guy who just cant play teemo as for his kit being outdated i also disagree by a long shot its still viable and still fits especially when you compair him to the other yordles

Teemo has good solid kit. He isn't OP at all. Annoying, yes, OP, no.
