I'm starting to give up hope on the fact that Teemo will get any compensation (bug included)

Teemo is still left to rot after the changes which butchered him. Here's why. * /r/leagueoflegends

Really, after all those nerfs, Teemo needs some kind of satisfaction. The Reddit post hasn't been getting much attention. This guy puts up an incredible article about how he still needs work. Please don't half ass Teemo and pass it by like it's okay. There are Teemo mains out there! People who CARE about Teemo! Don't let his reasoning go to waste. Please Please Please PLEASE fix him!( It sounds really pathetic, but coming from a one-trick-pony Teemo player, it's making me frustrated knowing that most of my mechanics are delayed and unable to react quickly.)

As for the bug, The Omega Squad Teemo skin's auto attacks feel very slow compared to different Teemo skins. (e.g. Panda Teemo) They had the same problem for Ezreal's Ultimate Skin as well and Veigar's Final Boss skin too. If you expect to have us buy skins worth 10$ at least make it worth it. Another bug, This may be just observation, but Teemo does NOT actually stealth quicker in the bush. He stealths longer than it would take him.

I main teemo and ill say that he needs something because he has no role. Top lanners will outscale him, mid lanners will out burst him, and ADCs will out range and out dps him. The one strat that i can pull off with him better than any other champ is the split push. However this is not ideal as mid-late game unless you stomp the shit out of you lanner (which wont happen if the jungler is competant) you wont be able to duel most champs thus they can just send someone to stop your push. If they are dumb and send more than one though you can usualy stealth or bait them into your shrooms and buy time for your team. Now this worked a lot better before the shroom duration nerf. But as it is he is super niche and is not viable unless you put a team together around him

I really hope @Riot reads this on their OWN forums. The point that I'm trying to make here is that some "new" things that get worked onto a champion either 1. Have little to no impact. 2. Have too much impact. or the rare one, 3. Fine. It's not that I'm not respecting the new Teemo changes, It's the fact that some of these changes have hurt champions and they aren't really being compensated for it. Some champions they destroyed(e.g Azir , Jax , Cassiopeia ) have been WAITING for their changes. You aren't supposed to keep everyone happy. I understand that. But at least acknowledge that you may have overdone the nerfs and revert some power back.

There's a special place in hell for Teemo mains. Although, being sadists, I doubt they'll mind it much

Cute meme. Teemo main here, tell me about it.

I'm just saying, when you play a champion who's entire kit is based around screwing you over (Q denies farm, E makes all of your auto attacks free, unavoidable poke, W makes it easier to get away with using Q and E, R punches your heathbar in the nads while slowing you massively.), you all seem like sadists to me =/

As for many champions there are weaknesses. Teemo's are easy to point out. Easy to gank. No flash retaliation. Cannot snowball when kept behind. I can name more. You can almost never see anyone in champion select being happy about Teemo being picked. Sure there's pros such as the poke and damage, but he has no hard CC. Other than your shrooms and blind, Teamfights for Teemos are just bad. Especially with these nerfs.

youre a point and click ap stealth assassin, so curb your yammering skull cave before Riot does rework your shit and you have skill shots like everybody else, and cant just sit inside your minion wave laughing and blinding people while we die from poison

I wouldn't be surprised if Riot actually did that. They already ruined mushrooms so why not ruin him in general! Other than that, only that is happening early game. While most champs have dueling potential, Teemo lost his.

You mean the Teemo mains who only enjoys playing him because he gets tons of free pokes on melee champions at top lane?

Doesn't need it. He was oppressive enough in the past. Even Kassadin is still more underrated than the current Teemo. Let's talk about buffing him instead of the S*tanic champ.

Another Champion Riot tried to "Rework" though he's still underrated he has recieved more attention than Teemo has gotten about his nerfs. Other than "free pokes" what else can you see teemo help the team for? Map Control? The bouncing shrooms? Kassadin recently has been changed alongside Teemo in 5.16

Yaaas. Thank you @Riot for at least listening and reverting some power in the PBE. Teemo Noxious Trap (R) [judging by files, ARM time for shrooms reduced to 1 second from 1.5. The in-game tooltip has not been changed.] Noxious Trap (R) recharge time reduced to 34/28/22 from 35/31/27.
