How about we nerf Teleport or remove it completely?

Juice··1 votes·1,383 views

Now that 3-4 teleports are mandatory per game, how about we nerf this overpowered summoner spell?

Teleport is just a cop out for bad players.

I kill someone in lane using my ignite, and am forced to go back and when I return I am faced with a built up minion wave and my opponent being a level higher than me despite me killing him ? Great job riot.

I see why it's necessary though, with jungle being as broken as it is if you die once you run risk of losing 3-4 plates or even entire tower.

So first let's nerf jungle and then nerf teleport so that laners don't have to worry about dying and losing the tower from a single gank if they were ahead the entire laning phase up until that point.

Flash used on 10 players a game... should we nerf or remove that?

Stop expecting to win lane off one kill. Your ignite will be back up in 3 minutes... Just kill them again then.

I don't expect to win lane off one kill. I expect to be ahead off of kill though, not behind.

You come back to the lane with an extra 300g of items, maybe 500g. You started the game ahead by taking a micro summoner spell over a macro summoner spell. Now you're still ahead because your extra items outweigh the opponent's extra exp. You get the opportunity to cement that lead in 180 seconds.

It’s easy to win lane off of one kill especially when you play Darius who can poke under tower and has good sustain

I normally only see one tp per game and it has a 6 minute cd

I just checked your match history, and no matter who you play you ALWAYS run ignite unless you're playing JG. If TP is so overpowered, why don't you give it a shot? I personally think ignite and tp are on fairly even terms.

You think wrong. TP is just worse because soloQ players can't be expected to use it correctly

So, you complain that someone gets back to lane using a summoner with a 5 minute cooldown, while your ignite only has a 2 minute cooldown and can get you easy kills XD seems like you are like an ignite Darius player XD

Excuse me? If the kills were "easy" then everyone would run ignite instead of teleport. There's a reason why teleport is the meta spell hint : It's strictly better than Ignite and overpowered.

Which is why 3-6 players have this in every pro game.

So you needed your lower cooldown ignite to kill them in the first place? You are utilizing your summoner spell, yet complain about someone else utilizing theirs when in the end you came out on top due to your point and click damage advantage..

You got 300 kill gold (over 2 minion waves worth of gold) which you could have at the very least used to buy boots and get back to lane sooner , now deal with the consequences , your ignite will be off cooldown long before their teleport is, so how is this a bad scenario, repeat the process as soon as your ignite is off cooldown and you`ve won fairly hard...provided that you cs between ignites and trades.

I'm going to be completely honest.

there are only 5 spells that I think should exist in this game.

Ignite, Flash, Heal, Ghost, Cleanse.

Literally it.

just remove teleport, it's so anti-skill that it shouldn't exist on principle anymore.

At least teleport has an opportunity cost attached to it, unlike ignite.

why don't the pros take ignite to top lane? taking ignite itself is an opportunity cost

btw I been saying this for months but the boards hates me. you outplayed your opponent and killed them? don't worry it actually counts for nothing cause they'll just teleport back and catch the big creep wave they were supposed to lose. matter of fact, you now lose for killing them at the moment you did cause they'll just freeze the lane and have a lvl lead on you, all because they got outplayed. why am I being penalised for outplaying my opponent?

remove fucking teleport this has been going on for years, the most blatant skill bandage in the game outside of malphite, janna, nunu, rammus and jinx.

5 minutes cooldowns means it will used twice in a normal laning phase.

Top laners generally take this which is healthy for the role as both laners taking ignite is always a feast or famine lane while teleport can help with mistakes.

Scaling mid laners to it for a safer laning phase.

But I’m sure you play champions generally designed to win there lane and snowball.

What is the problem with teleport exactly ?
