Teemo Should Be Reworked As a Jungler

HIKASHIKUN··9 votes·768 views

I think it's pretty interesting I find more success with Teemo as a Jungler rather than a Top/Mid role - it's been that way for the last three years but there's some pretty big barriers that prevents most folks from even trying it:

  1. You need a specific set of runes to do the jungle clear
  2. You need to be able to kite jungle camps really well
  3. There's other, easier champions to play

Yeah, I visit sometimes to read posts about Teemo. It's amusing to see the types of discussions that appear here to say the least :P

I've been streaming quite often this season actually. I post weekly VODs of my ranked adventures on YouTube too. Got a lot of support lately with donations of a brand new streaming equipment, computer parts, and of course $$ C:

It does make sense. I'd imagine he'd fit a counter jungle playstyle very well with his thematic.

I hate counter jungling with a fury though, so I'm surprised I agree with this.

teemos poison doesnt stack, which means no matter how many times you hit someone, if hes already poisoned, you only do the damage of your original autoattack. therefore devourer isnt effective on teemo and you should stick with runic echoes, especially since nashors tooth is good on him and thats more than sufficient attack speed for even jungle teemo. its hard to believe you're master and seemingly "endorsing" jungle teemo, but then again you only won your last 2 ranked games of it, but both were with runic echoes so not that surprising i guess. good luck making it meta Teemo

You do realise he's the best jungle Teemo in the world right now, right? And he has been playing him in the jungle for quite a while now? Besides he already has a runic echoes build in his guide. And he plays both builds properly.

Also he already popularized it, among Teemo mains at least.

i dunno what deep dank subreddit you're browsing to say its "popular" among anyone. you're saying hes the best jungle teemo in the world, and if jungle teemo is a thing, then surely he'd have at least a winrate of over 50%, from these 3 accounts its definitely 50% or less. but i dont care about winrates and subreddits, if he was surely the BEST jungle teemo in the world, he'd know the poison doesnt stack, and therefore, dare i state the obvious, devourer on teemo is awful. there cannot be a more obvious way to prove that someone is not the best at a league role. i, as of right now, am officially a better teemo jungler than him. any singular bad decisions i make can be cancelled out by my better, more efficient build on jungle teemo. the only thing he'll have the upper hand in, is if he has secret kiting exploits with jungle creeps that nobody knows about, if theres none of that, i can go tell bengi or peanut about teemo jungle and they can go play a single game better than your prophet has on 290 games of teemo

Stop talking shit when you are an ignorant fool. On-hit Teemo is, and has been popular since season 2. And since you are a dumbfuck I guess I need to tell you that devourer synergizes with on-hit builds. Besides it still procs the on-hit E damage. Saying that your build is better is bullshit because he does build runic echoes too. And you have the guts to say that you are better than him; this only proves that you are a retarded scumbag. You are lame. He is the 4th best Teemo player on lolskill. If what you say is true then use your build and get a better rank than him. Don't pull out random bullshit out of your butthole and puke it here. You are laughable.

I think Devourer still makes more sense as Teemo doesn't really want to 1v1 early on. His style of jungling would definitely be focused on vision and objective control and working to counterjungle instead of direct pressure (also his lack of effective cc in a gank would make him less useful.
