Teemo Hate

Drumkicker··7 votes·1,855 views

It's well known throughout the community, in every elo 85.9% of summoners hate Teemo. If Teemo is on the winning team he gets no credit for the win even if he carries there is just silence. If Teemo is on the losing team everyone will rage at Teemo because it's his fault bot lane fed 10 kills before the 20 min mark. Everyone hates Teemo, even his own team in every circumstance.

Some people like myself love the fuck out of Teemo. I've played over 1000 games with Teemo and I don't regret a single one. I don't regret a single second I've sat stealthed in the enemy jg with my shroom trap ready. I don't regret getting camped the fuck out by every other enemy jungler. I don't regret the time spent deciding which skin was best for a particular game.

The only thing I regret about Teemo is how much everyone hates him and how his own team loves to try to tilt him and blame him for everything. I report and get reported 300% more often when I play Teemo. My account I played 1000 Teemo games on is permanently banned.

Riot: Please fix the fucked up Teemo dynamic. Something needs to change to make him seem less "troll". There is too much hate for such a fun (and insanely cute) champ to play. Please give him a blessing, a slight rework that will put him in a more healthy place ie your own team doesnt ban him when you show champ pref.

Every time I hear someone say Teemo is useless, "Teemo is having a hard time", etc I die a little inside. According to champion.gg he has a 52% win rate, so clearly Teemo is as garbage as everyone says...

And I've even seen him played in LCS a few times. He wins almost every time.

It's usually kinda a joke pick in LCS unfortunately. The crowd loves it though hehe. TSM played him recently vs NRG and C9 picked him in 2014.

Teemo is a healthy champion, not because he's not annoying, but because he's balanced

That literally made no sense.

Teemo is a balanced champion, that better?

Leblancs Boob1 votes

Okay. And how does that make him healthy in any sense of the word?

Well the same can bbe said abut yasuo right now, people hate him even more than teeto atm.

His entire identity is built around being a dick to play with at this point, they can't change it. It'd be like removing Singed's gas.

Drumkicker1 votes

I understand what you mean, he needs to retain his identity, but there must be something they can change (perhaps with his w) that could make him a healthier champion.

WOOO someone else understands. I hate it so much when in champ select my team sees I want teemo, asks me to change him and when I say that im a really good teemo player and have an easy match vs the Yi top lane, and they ban him -_-

This doesn't surprise me to be honest. He is fast and hard to chase due to his blind, slow on shrooms, and MS on his W, and he is very skilled at destroying the necessary early game of early scaling champs like Riven, Yas(if your decent at him because this isn't as easy), and Darius. He can easily one shot the high damage dealers like LB and any ADC in the game right now and you cant roam through the JG for fear of stepping on a shroom and having to back because you went from 2k health to 300 health. Gosh I love playing Teemo

Teemo is particularly strong when there's a yi jungle and something like garen or trundle etc top. Yi gank is a double kill xD.

yea but that lil rat isnt any good vs Lissandra

Drumkicker1 votes

Yup, he's def hard to play against champs with gap close/hard cc....but strong vs a few that have that like Irelia

Tattersall2 votes

(Imo) At this point, all the talk of Teemo being obscenely op isn't true, but it's perpetuated through memes. I can think of maybe ONE time that I was stomped by a Teemo, and that's it. He's not too difficult to counter, but people never forget the one or two times they were stomped by a Teemo because the internet is always reminding them.

tl;dr: Teemo hate is perpetuated through cultural lore and not reality.

oSEXYPLATYPUSo1 votes

oh my stance on teemo ... official stance .... fuk that rat bastard LMAO

but really i had a game where i need to be a tank and engage for team comp we had and i knew i was vs Teemo top but i was like fuk it lets go rock solid Malphite and he was doing his lil Teemo thing of hiding in bush and auto attacking and blinding me he got a good lil cs lead but never killed me then my jungler comes im lvl 6 guess what ROCK SMASH LIL RAT and all he did was cry in game how i have no skill blah blah blah he kept flashing his mastery icon he didnt know i was lvl 6 also mastery Malphite i played safe took cs i could i went 2-1-1 he was 0-5-3 his team ff at 20 but he said i couldnt win 1 vs 1 i was bad ect ect.

Drumkicker1 votes

I'm not surprised at all that this is how the match up went. Malphite is pretty every in almost every match up before he has 6 (particularly bad against teemo before 6) and teemo is weak against gap closers xD. I think a smart Teemo can win the matchup if he builds the right stuff, but malphite's utility is undeniable. He's going to be a tough fight for teemo even if malphite gets crushed early on.

Malfini1 votes

Because... His play style is intimidating.

Players do not buy Oracle Alteration.

Teemo has a hard time participating on team fights. If he does participate though, he becomes the primary target.

Drumkicker2 votes

In gold usually people spam pink wards and oracle to find the shrooms if I build some ap. It happened sometimes in silver. Almost never in bronze games. It's been a long time since I played in bronze though. This is maybe a primary reason he isn't viable in organized play, because any player can counter his ult with oracle and pinks. If you want to trade with Teemo after level 9 as a champ like riven or darius then pop oracle and bust a move...

darkestkhan2 votes

They do spam vision wards and alterations in some games were I go full ad [with 60% crit chance]... Yeah, that 450dmg shroom is so scary when compared against my 700dmg aa.

They won't change him, he's already extremely profitable as a "troll champ" why bother changing him

Not necessarily a troll champ. His mechanics is roaming the rift, a scout; just as his title is. If you have played other games that uses scouting as a role, then scouts do not engage on a disadvantageous situations. Only engaged for a few moments, aka poking, then move on to the next target.

On team fights, scouts are on the rear much like those squishy support. But the difference between a genuine support champ and Teemo is... Teemo needs to be mobile or continuously moving, even during team fights, to avoid getting picked on while supports can just stay on one place.

maybe the Teemo is his win rate? #1 top laner 55.70% win rate

tuck feemo

VivaLaKitten1 votes

a rework is completely unnecessary he's fine the way he is not too strong, not too weak you would have had to do something worthy of a ban to be banned . - .

Leblancs Boob1 votes

Maybe you don't hate Teemo.... because you're the one playing him....

Pheobos1 votes

I feel like if anything they would need to look at his Q to make him feel less frustrating/troll-ish. a lock-on blind is one of the single most frustrating things to play against as a mele toplaner. Besides that, it has like a 70%ap scaling which i find insane for a lock-on.

Dr Poro1 votes

The hatred towards Teemo is mostly iconic and just for fun. When they blame you for shit that's obviously not your fault, 9/10 times it just started as a joke. Don't get mad at this and just play along. Say something like "cause I'm satan" and your team will have a good time instead of a flame war.

Drumkicker1 votes

no the hate, blame, reports etc,,, are real. trust me.
