Why is teemo permabanned in this game mode but picks like OFA brand can still exist? I just want to know the reasoning why. Teemo is not as strong as he used to be in this current season :/ He's annoying, but not nearly as good in one for all as before.
Handy Sandy 22 votesBecause a lot of people are too lazy to get a 
and brand is a lesser known champion that uses mainly skillshots for damage.
Devotìon9 votesBut brand synergizes with himself TOO well, and the mage update pushed him over the scale for this game mode.
Auz the Ripper7 votesBut unlike teemo, at least one Brand has to be present to kill you. Teemos doesn't; at level 6 they can have between 50 and 83 mushrooms. At level 16 they can have between 75 and 125 mushrooms.
Owyn10 votesbut unlike teemo you can't simply disable brand with 
Wheatloaf2 votesThe Teemos are still there, though. If it was just the shrooms, sweeper would shut them right down, but the Teemos aren't going to sit and twiddle their thumbs while you clear their stuff out.
LXII4 votesAnd when the 5 Teemos meet the 5 Brands that just disabled their minefield?
all 5 Brands press R, all 5 Teemos die immediately.
Bagguette11 votes"Skill shots"
Qiy4na3 voteshonestly he only has 1
Cosnirak2 votesIf by 1 you mean 2, sure.
Qiy4na2 voteshis pillar of flame is hardly a skillshot
Cosnirak1 votesClearly you people have never played Brand. It's not that easy to land, in part because it's pretty slow, in part because it's shorter range than you think (the slowness allows for that cast and walk away that makes it look like it's long range).
FantasySniper1 votesOk, so his pillar of flame is technically a skillshot.
That's like comparing a javelin to a grenade launcher.

It Hertz When IP2 votesMainly skillshots? He has two, one of which is a large AoE that it is really hard to miss with.
Jet Sett17 votesFriggin 
Is allowed, Teemo is HARDLY toxic enough to justify a perma ban. Ban Illaoi and Gnar too since they synergize incredibly hard with themselves, seriously, Gnar's can proc their max health damage off of each other, but the minefield you can sweep away is too broken?
Wind Whistler2 votesFriggin
Lol. Someone finally realizes how absurd Gnar is in OFA. Honestly though, there's A LOT more wrong with Gnar than just Hyper.
LemurMonster6 votesThis is why I have yet to play this mode since like the 3rd time I came out. Until they undo this I wont play it. Are people that lazy to get a item that truly make his ulti useless!? yes.. yes they are..
Even in Poro King. people just straight out refuse to buy a 
Even when I tell them to get one.. None never did.. after I kept telling them to buy it more than 3 times.. I lost like 5 games because of this.. & yeah I always the one to get it.
Riot... stop putting me with people this dense please... It's because of people like this.. This is the reason why Teemo Shroom damage is so bad among other things wrong with him.
SanKakU1 votesIf you feel like the damage is bad, you have one of 2 options, build more AP than you're building now, or build AD and take advantage of the movement speed slow. Perhaps use your passive for more attack speed.
GrReaper964 votesNow imagine a map with 5 40% cdr teemos and 100 mushrooms
aspects14 votes45% cdr
LXII8 votesNow imagine if there was a single item that rendered all of them useless for like 10 seconds at a time. Imagine that it's free. Then imagine your whole team can get them!
Leetri3 votesTeemo can place them faster than you can sweep them with that 60 second CD.
LXII8 votesWait, you mean you'd have to buy a pink ward every now and then? Or god forbid his ult actually goes off for once! You can't use oracle's to stop a Brand ult once, let alone every 60 seconds, seems fair enough to me.
Blakiepug2 votesTeemo can place them faster than you can sweep them with that 60 second CD.
Umm... Build MR. And the Oracle Alteration disables the shrooms it doesn't just reveal them so you could use it like all the professional Teemo hunters do to just run through the shrooms as if they weren't there.
Adriqnohee2 votesIf you time it right in the team fight phase and when going for objectives your team can use it for 50 seconds non stop giving it only a 10 seconds coolddown.
Meta Phyton1 votesyou didn't think before you wrote that comment. you're talking about an intricate, coordinated level of teamwork requiring trust, esteem, and friendliness ... from the LoL playerbase.
LXII2 votesGenerally you would be right, but most of the people in OFA (from my experience) are partied up, so it wouldn't be too tall of an order.
DeathToEcchi4 votesJust wait til you play against 5 Zilean with max cdr...
Friendly Ram2 votesDid that last ofa. Unfortunately ran into 5 yis. I hate his blink.
DeathToEcchi1 votesYah, when I got to play him it was against Akali. My team surrendered even though we were ahead 5 turrets and had one of the inhibs exposed.
Gora T2 votesLast time my team didn't know how to play him , all game they were toxic towards me for choosing him.
MLDzXnRRR3 votesYesterday I played 
vs 
. The game was something like 0/10 in 5 minutes and they opened mid.
SociopathFriend1 votesOh man- I remember Zyra the last time this mode came around- you had a veritable forest popping up under their turret and hell no they were not going to be anywhere near the creep wave.
Owyn3 votesI wanted to play teemo but I can't [zombie-nunu-bummed]
SlyTactician 3 votesTeemo's ult has already been limited in URF (only 20 shrooms on the map at all times) while his shroom duration timers even have been reduced down to 5 minutes since last year in regular game modes while oracles can even disarm his shrooms as well completely.
Champs like Heimer, Zilean, Zyra, etc are much more anti-fun in this mode than Teemo really when it comes to One for All at this point of time. Brand's new ult pretty much just screams team fights and 5 Brands altogether is a nightmare.
LXII2 votesEspecially Heimer. At least the others have to be higher than level 1 to push your inhibitor turrets. lol
warpenguin5553 votesI agree, Brand should be permabanned as well as and 
ReZisT Lust2 votesBrands skill shots Ex5 lol then Rx5
Vistrall2 votesI was Karthus lol... go buy your Zhonyas and suck it up :)
Devotìon1 votesyeah, hard to buy zhonya's as a draven and explain to your teamates why you were building ap for the first ten minutes of the game.
Yordleassault2 votesGonna just leave this here: http://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/gameplay-balance/quahVEEW-teemo-karthus-and-one-for-all-petition
invisiblecat12 votesTeemo and Karthus are always banned by Riot, because people are too lazy to get sweeping lense, and refuse to just buy a spectral cowl
SociopathFriend1 votesThe Karthus one is fair- Karthus one for all is so mind-numbingly dumb. Especially if the enemy team picks Karthus- then it's just double-ace every teamfight.
Gora T2 votes
FantasySniper1 votesMeanwhile 
Princess Pusheen1 votesThe strange thing is, I couldn't pick him whenever I went to play one for all.. Then we made a 5 premade group and suddenly Teemo was there between the champs!!! So if you're premade 5, you can play with him, there's no permaban, but I don't know why Riot did this, unlogical...
