Teemo; just TEEMO

Who at riot thought it was a good idea to create one of the most annoying champs in existence to the point that somebody will go absolutely berserk because of how much they hate them and will only calm down if the darn champ ragequits/ gets slammed into the ground?

Well, I'm posting this after a game that caused me to get so freakin' aggressive that my sister was berating me for hating teemo. I hate him to the point I will NEVER play as him! So, I'm doing this to vent right now; will somebody just PLEASE give me an explanation as to WHY they thought teemo was a good enough champ concept to make it into the final game? Hey if you remove him, make sure to anounce it.

I like playing as Teemo. }:-) If he's allowed to build up for his late-game, he's a powerhouse with few counters. That said, I'll tell you how you can counter him.

Early-game, you have to keep killing him/out-cs-ing him/pushing him out-of-lane. He has trouble against those who out-level/out-range/out-poke him. Teemo is very weak on sustain, unless he builds heavy AD/lifesteal, but then he has weak mushrooms/Toxic Shot damage.

Late-game, MR mitigates a lot of his damage, and he's very soft and susceptible to quick burst. Lifesteal doesn't help him much with that. CC also does wonders against him.

Oracle's Extract item 2047, Oracle's Lens item 3364, Vision Wards item 2043, and Lightbringer item 3185 are hard counters for Teemo's mushrooms. If you can see them, you can kill/clear them. They also work against his Camouflage passive. AoE abilities can still hit him if he's invisible. For example, in one ARAM match I used Ashe's W (Volley) to kill a Teemo that cloaked and tried to hide from me.

I hope this helps you out a bit. :)
