Fuck Teemo.
On Topic: Back when Teemo was retardedly OP with his shrooms doing 90% hp with 3 items I abused him for free wins. Not as much as you probably play him considering I still hate him with a passion.
In my experience of playing him though.
Teemo is and incredibly uncompetitive champion. he's easy to learn, hard to master, and people underestimate him all the time, but we dont' see him in pro play at all and for good reason. He plainly stinks.
Wrong, insanely easy to learn. Insanely easy to master. Nobody underestimates him. They hate him for the plain fact he's insanely annoying and unfun to play against or with. He doesn't stink. He has his own playstyle that you just need to figure out
Teemo lacks the ability to survive sustained damage, he also currently lacks the ability to trade with any of the sustained damage dealers baring those that rely on auto attacks. (which are primarly adcs)
Play him AD or Tanky AP you'll win sustained fights or play him as squishy AP he has quite a few ways to be played. He has to have some weaknesses so you're not gonna get all his capabilities in a single package.
Teemo lacks the ability to burst down all but the most fragile of burst champs, to whit they could easily build any hp and survive his sustain and burst and burst him down.
By fragile you mean mid laners and adc's and the really squishy supports, yes? Those are the only ones you SHOULD be bursting down. Mid/late game if you're not insanely fed you have 0 reason to be bursting down a tank/bruiser. It just makes 0 sense.
Teemo lacks any CC that matters beyond blind against AA champs...
Those mushrooms are a pretty fking annoying form of CC..Especially with vision being as lack luster as it use to be before the changes.
In short, teemo is the sort of champ that can only do well if he's the last pick against a team of people that can't rock his world (hence part of his pick rate)
Wrong again. You can pick him first. Win or lose your lane he still becomes insanely useful mid-late game. He's a scout. After laning you should be doing just that "I'll scout ahead" You scout out the enemies jungle. Clear their wards and place your mushrooms. You make sure that if the enemy makes a move you know about it and relay that information to your team (In other words if they go for raptors your mushroom should be there meaning you gave them the vision on it) His damage from the shrooms are just a bonus. When you have a team who hates to fking ward then there you are. Taking it all into your hands. You don't play him as an assassin/Mage/dps w/e he's a scout. So do just that. Scout.
please fix him, undo his nerf, redo him, whatever... he's a fun champ that deserves to be fun while being competitive.
Fuck. Teemo.
