Let Me Know if Someone Steps on My Mushroom

When playing as Teemo, an important part of what makes it fun is to watch enemies slowly and hopelessly walk around after they step on a mushroom know when enemies step on mushrooms and play around with the vision information / hp drop created by that.

Although Aery / Comet kinda serves as an indicator when mushrooms activate, when they go on CD I can't really tell if someone stepped on my mushroom. I guess pro players could look at the mini map every 0.5 second and instantly tell if a mushroom exploded, but for us mortals, a sound indicator (could be just the same mushroom exploding sound) when enemy far away activates my mushroom would be really helpful. On top of that, a direction indicator would even be better.

If I know exactly when and where enemies step on mushrooms, I can ping them so that my teammates can engage utilising the slow / damage. They'll also know where that enemy is and play around that information. It'll also make my Teemo experience more satisfying because I can more frequently watch people suffer.

Finally, I would really love a "mushroom count" in Teemo's ultimate tooltip that tells you how many mushroom have you planted, how many were stepped on and how much damage that has dealt. Again, would help make the Teemo experience more satisfying.

Thanks for reading and feel free to leave comments Teemo

Perhaps a little red arrow around Teemo's hitbox that appears and points in the direction of an activated Mushroom. Arrow kinda like how Zed's shadow indicator works.

You'll know when you hear "You have slain an enemy!" without knowing where or how it happened lol

Its always funny getting those free kills out of nowhere.

I was a Teemo one trick for a while. I am lvl7 mastery with about 200k xp on Teemo. I think you should hear a shroom explode no matter where you/they are on the map. It is fun being an awful piece of shit and watching the enemy slowly die from poison HEHEHE Teemo item 3151 item 3165 item 3135 item 3089 item 3020 item 3092

You used to have DFT as the indicator for it, but now...you no longer have that.

Would be a nice QOL buff.

What mushroom?

Unless they changed them to no longer give a small area of vision I feel like this would only digress from a competitive game even more than league is by making everything handed to you. To get better at the game you need good map awareness, and managing your mushrooms is part of that point, so I have to disagree with you.

Why not just have the game autoping the minimap every time an enemy shows vision on a ward? Would be a more extreme idea though.

Every time someone steps on a mushroom it should give us true sight of Teemo, and the option to fast travel to that little shit lipped mofugger so that we can sever him in half.

Having the old DFT indicator be used would be nice. One of the things I did like about it was the fact that it let me know if I landed an ability.

if you really have problems with that and love teemo then get omega squad.

I would say an audio que from teemo i.e him saying something like how lux sometimes says "gotcha!" from time to time when you snare someone. (Not sure why I can't hear this all the time)

if you take aery like you're supposed to, you'll see aery fly out to whomever steps on your shroom

No, Teemo players don't deserve to have fun or get satisfaction from playing.

I'm not sure that a global indicator is needed though. Cause even if you got the notice that one's been stepped on, you still HAVE to look at the map anyway to figure out which one it was, and then hope it wasn't a minion. And then get super annoyed when you're actively using them in lane and hearing the ping every time it goes off.

Besides, someone stepping on a mushroom isn't that big of a playmaker to need to be able to coordinate a team around knowing when one has been triggered.

I do think it would be neat to have the stats in the ult though, showing how many you've planted total, and how many have been triggered by champions, as well as an indicator on the buff bar showing how many traps you have active.

I'd go for the mushroom count, but doesn't he have quotes for whenever someone eats a mushroom?

SSJTribe4/27/2018, 5:21:24 PM1 votes

I dunno if you have the Omega Squad Teemo skin, but he has voicelines for people hitting his shrooms, such as

Teemo'd. I'm everywhere.

Might be worth looking into.

Usually when someone finds one of my mushrooms, I just let them Know that I was wondering where I put that shroom.

They don't take kindly to that most of the time though..[zombie-nunu-bummed]
