Ham is button mashing basically, you go all in, mashing every button and hopefully win that's what it pretty much is.

l2p is, Learn to Play, it's never used outside of trying to insult others so you don't need to know this word.

f2p means Free to Play, referring to the business model similar to LoL. Many free to play titles are also "pay to win", so sometimes f2p has negative meanings associated with it but ain't that bad. LoL isn't pay to win per se, just "pay for convenience" in a rather mild form.

HAM = Hard as a Motherf Teemo er, usually used to describe when someone plays very aggressive.

l2p = Learn 2 Play

f2p = I'm guessing free 2 play? As in league is f2p.

I'm confused if Teemo is the expletive here (Mother Teemo-er) or the thing that covers the expletive (i.e., Motherf****er) but either way I approve

Guess Teemo is the first champ I think of when I think profanity, since's the spawn of satan's hairy Teemo hole and I absolutely loath him as a champion :D

But to answer your question, its a bit of both.

I've never really understood the hate against Teemo. Other than being an easy target; but of all the 100+ Champions he isn't my biggest problem.

In terms of design, I think Vayne has the most flawed kit design, and I feel that Tryndamere is among the most frustrating to play against.

I don't know, I like Vayne . But Teemo as a champion with annoying early-game harass to play against and his god-awful game ruining late game to have on your team, I hate playing with him on either side. Not because he's easy or hard to kill or a problem for me to beat, I just hate him as himself.

Also, typically Teemo players are cocky, childish and very one-for-all.

Ya, "Going Ham" implies going all out, not caring about the consequences when you try something in game. Ex. towerdiving someone is often referred to as 'going ham' because is a very easy to screw up play.
