I wish Teemo W could get looked at, everything else works fine but "Move Quick" is lackluster

You never see any real use out of the "spell" seeing as, for most of the game at least, it's just a 10% MS increase that stays up until you're damaged by a champion/turret, only ever jumping up to 20% for a brief 3 seconds when you activate it. A pitiful value like that is nothing when the game is so chock full of mobility and better speed boosts tacked onto other abilities that accomplish much more than Move-Quick ever will.

You can't kite enemies with Movespeed alone unless it's a constant long-lasting/refreshing amount or if you have a low CD Mobility/Stealth mechanic. So really what is the point of Move-quick as it currently is when you'll never invest in it at all after the 1st point until level 14?

If Teemo got buffed the world would scream in rage and agony. Meanwhile, other champions can have 99 dashes, heals, escapes, self-resurrections, etc. I wish Teemo had something other than that thing.

His W is part of what makes his melee matchups so good. You're undervaluing how powerful a free always-up passive is, and the ability to consistently skirt just outside of someones range and dodge their attempts to engage on you. Maybe it's not perfect, but honestly it's one of the main reasons I enjoy playing the champ.

It's not free and its incredibly easy to disable.

All you need to do is take the smallest bit of damage and you're slow, and mind you the active does not refresh the passive either, it just gives a 3 second "burst" that doubles the value.

lets not forget jhin who crits every single shot late game and is running at mach 5 when he crits.

Jhin you can deal with, his DPS is so low that he's a gimp ADC.

Better off troll picking him in the Jungle or something lol

I love teemo's W. I max it after my E. Literally I'm quick as it is and with the ms increase rune, I can kite easily or escape dangerous situations.

Especially in unfavorable matchups.

Almost every champ has an ability that they 1 point until level 14. General mobility creep is a problem though, it's why they added the band-aid of grounding since it's what makes some otherwise weak kits work.

Mobility was the treatment to how overpowered range as a stat is.

I was around when that was the case, when mobility abilities were mainly for melee to escape or close in. Now mobility is really just as much of an issue as power creep. There is really no justification for something like Kaisa having a LeeSin Q on steroids or some of the many other flagrant disregards for balance in favor of flashy plays.
