Should Teemo's Q still inflict a Blind? Or should it be changed to Nearsight?

Teemo presently is the only one with the Blind crowd control, and its effectiveness is highly questionable except against ADCs and other certain matchups. When it works, it's obnoxious; when it doesn't, it's pretty bad except as a damage source. I question whether keeping in an "autoattacks become useless" crowd control is worth it anymore given that it's now too gimmicky.

But then you look at how Nearsight effects work for Champions like Quinn, Graves and Nocturne, and you wonder whether or not Teemo could put it to good use for juking, baiting enemies into traps, keeping an enemy from seeing a clever mushroom placement, etc.

Food for thought.

Nearsight is an extremely obnoxious crowd control, much more than a blind. I don't want Teemo to get more hate than he already receives because low elo players can't beat him. Also to change it to a nearsight it will probably also be changed to a skillshot, which makes his already lackluster teamfight presence even lworse. I think we should just leave Teemo as he is until they rework him eventually.

I agree that Teemo's Q is too binary. It could be changed to a damage reduction or something to make it more universal..? At least it feels good to blind those adcs and make them do 0 damage (if your q actually has the time to reach them lul)
