Being a solo player sucks and playing Teemo even as a main is beginning to feel bad.

/This is a bit of a rant./

My problem with DQ as a solo player

I have to start off by saying that DQ made playing solo feel awful. I've been getting placed with pre-mades more and more, recently, and you can really feel the coordination when facing a pre-made team.

Whenever I have to face a pre-made team, my team and I can do nothing about their extreme coordination.

• They gank really well compared to us.
• They have better map pressure than us.
• They have a better team comp compared to us.
• They are usually more skilled than us.

And even playing with a random pre-made team of 3 or 4 people feels bad and I end up forgetting my team exists because of these two main things:

• Nobody seems to ping or call when enemies are missing.
• There is usually only coordination on the part of the pre-made team mates.

It would be nice to play with randoms or even just duo queued people because playing with and against "teams" sucks for me as a solo player.

My problem with Teemo.

This is my second account maining this little psychopath and I've found a few major problems with him in general.

• He has good harass early game, but with a passive ability that does absolutely nothing mid to late game because it scales so badly.

• His kit does not fit his lore in any way other than the aforementioned passive ability, which feels like more of an excuse to keep the kit and lore on the same champ. He is supposed to use poison as a main offensive item, yet the only thing he does in game is throw a giant dart or build ad because the poison does absolutely nothing when it counts. "His signature weapon - a blowgun - uses a rare ajunta poison he personally gathers from the jungles of Kumungu." Should that not be his passive instead of stealing the space of an ability?

• His low health seems to be the trade-off for the harass he has, even though other champs, like Gnar have 2 or 300 more base health with even more harass that /doesn't fall off mid to late game /.

• His passive stealth is almost never useful. I've only been able to use it once or twice to do anything of worth. Maybe that's just me, i don't know.

• The only positive thing his ult does is act as a very small ward, and early game alarm with a /slight / slow.

• His q's giant dart blinds enemies when it smacks into them, and his ult slows them when it explodes into a cloud? Kind of backwards, don't you think?

• Riot already said he has been in a bad spot for a while in the mid-season patch. #MakeTeemoSatanAgain

This all being said, I love the little guy, but it's hard to play him since he's been neglected for so long, and there are so many other alternatives like Gnar, and he's too squishy for what little he does, so he's virtually obsolete.
