Can We Change Teemo Q to Disarm Instead of Blind?

Meep Man··3 votes·678 views

EDIT: For people that don't know, Disarm is a mechanic already in the game that prevents the affected unit from basic attacking. Quinn's Q applies this to minions and monsters hit and Amumu's R roots and disarms enemies hit by it.

Let's be real here, Blind is still, after it's little update, a decently inconsistent effect. There are still some enhanced attack effects that make it through and it still sometimes feels like an attack dealt damage when it shouldn't have. Can we just simplify it down to where Teemo's Q applies Disarm to the target, entirely preventing them from using their basic attack? I see no benefit in having it Blind over Disarm other than maybe having the Ability name make sense.

ok so is voli already charging at you when you go to blind him ?

It doesn't matter if he is or not. Volibear can activate Q while blinded and flip you or you can blind him while he is charging at you with his Q and he will still flip you.

well the reason i asked if voli already casted his Q then the ability is processed before teemos Q ... just like if i was a range champ vs a teemo and i used my attack before teemo Q then my attack command was before your Q therefore i will still land my attack

Then you mean did Volibear begin his Q enhanced basic attack before you blinded him, because Volibear charging at you with his Q on does not mean he has already begun the basic attack.

You pick Teemo into auto attack based champions to counter pick. Also, I'm not here to discuss Teemo's E or R, I just want a better effect for his Q then the inconsistent Blind effect he currently has.

but what if you picked teemo 1st ... it does happen...

Then that's their fault I guess. That doesn't really justify Teemo having an inconsistent mechanic in his kit.

you cant hit anything with autos while blinded by teemo ...

Meep Man2 votes

Certain enhanced basic attack effects will "pierce" through Blind, causing them to hit you. A prime example for this is Volibear flip. Volibear will still flip and displace you if he hits you with his Q enhanced basic attack while blinded.

disarm is a very misleading term

Meep Man2 votes

I am confused. What about disarm is misleading?

the term would lead to think it keeps you from using any abilities on teemo whiled "disarmed "

Meep Man2 votes

But Disarm is already a mechanic in the game and Silence is what prevents you from using abilities. Quinn's Q will disarm enemies and Amumu's R will root and disarm targets hit.

What about No?

How about we just get rid of teemo in general ( sarcasm ). Why does everyone always complain - Shrooms got nerfed ( 10 to 5 min ) ( Oracles which is a free item and costs nothing and can be cast every 30 seconds disables shrooms as you walk through ). Teemo's W is disabled when in combat and does not gain movement speed, Teemo base movement speed has been reduced and can be out chased by many champions that use gap closing spells ( Riven can catch up to a teemo easily, Teemo having swift boots, cloud drake, and leveling w secondary. While Riven has no boots and just using his spell ). Recently Mallet being nerfed to include less damage. Qss takes away the blind. So if your really really bothered by his spells - I just told you every counter to teemo, so now you can use those to beat him and stop being a baby. So how about we just leave teemo with the one ability that he has left that is barely any good and go about your day :)
