Was reading about the new Teemo in the PBE notes and it was all good up until I read to the very end. Trap duration lowered to 5 minutes from 10 minutes. If you're not going to lower the cost for the shrooms it does not justify the 50% duration nerf. Anyways, whoever thought of the duration nerf should be shot.
Should have just left Teemo the way it was.
Teemo will continue to be trash.
You guys are forgetting about his Shroom Duration, it's been nerf by 50%. THis is fucking stupid.
Champions that are rarely played and have a reputation of being toxic are a pretty good candidate for a rework imo. His rework is looking pretty scary so far.
Its not a rework but its not just balance changes a rework to me is creating or defining a champions identity into something it wasent before. Teemo is still Teemo. What they have done is kinda like what they did with Singed in giving him a little more interaction with his abilities. i would call it a tune up
I'd be fine with his shrooms being 10 minutes so long as he can only have a set number out.
While this nerf was harsh I still think its better than when he was able to just litter the entire top lane and jungles with Shrooms for almost the whole game, with the only way to counter that being pink wards (which you can only have one of and can be destroyed by Teemo) or Sweeping Lens (which covers a limited area, has a limited duration, and has a much longer cooldown than Teemo's Shrooms.)
Yup, this is a bad Teemo nerf. Sigh, people down vote when they disagree instead of looking at the quality of the comment.
Upvote Ipav and reply to Phreak.
