@Riot Future of Teemo?

Hello,

I'm a player who mained Teemo earlier in the season and still chooses him a lot in rotating modes and occasionally in ranked.

I have loads of fun with him going Nashor's into Lich B and whatever feels right after that. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't; I have fun either way. A lot of players have also had success with the tanky atk spd/kite build as I'm sure you know.

However, as everyone knows, for most players Teemo is seen as a troll and/or Satan. Players are typically shocked when Teemo actually does well in a game. He is expected to feed and throw games, and in LCS he is a common hover joke. "As if we'd pick him lol."

Do you have any future plans for hell's favorite Yordle? Maybe a re-work (although I love his current kit)? I honestly don't think he needs buffs, but it would be nice for him to be seen as an actual legitimate choice by more players and even as a niche LCS pick.

I think he needs some serious attention to be considered viable in ranked. He's just so outclassed in every way, and this is coming from a Teemo main.

Even the best Teemo NA player Hikashikun has stated that playing Teemo has become less and less fun for him because of how difficult it is to cope with the imbalance. He's called several times for a Teemo mechanics/stats tweak over the past year or so.

Kinda wish that so people would take me seriously when I say I main him. You know, except the assholes picking him for trolling purposes and any sort of evil nature that does NOT resemble Teemo in any way at all.
