Are you serious? I had not one, but TWO players flame the hell out of me for picking Teemo into Xin. It was dead ass obvious Xin was top and Teemo counters the living shit out of him. On top of that, they had a vayne AD so I would have been invaluable late game. I swear, gold is just polished bronze sometimes....

To be fair, Teemo is just super unpopular to have on one's team these days in general. Lane counters aside, having a Teemo on your team, to many, means that you'll be teamfighting 4v5 a lot.

But that's just my cursory explanation. I don't believe in flaming people for their champ picks, especially when in your case it was absolutely calculated and probably beneficial.

I would flame you for owning teemo in general.

I don't like playing with Teemo's because he is so reliant on winning lane. If Teemo loses lane, he becomes absolutely useless until 35min+ when his shrooms start doing late game damage. Until then, there's not much you can do since Teemo provides no utility. I'd so much rather have an 0/5/0 Galio over an 0/5/0 Teemo.

Because there's a lot of players who buy a boost to gold for rewards and then try to play anyway. Feelsbadman.

That's what you get for playing teemo. noone fucking likes you, makes it that much more fun to use the lvl 7 emote.

I mean i don't play in gold but i think it's the fact that it's where more people who play FOTM champs are. Most people will then know teemo isn't that good metawise AND aren't willing to play with something offmeta.

though idk why they're crying lmao Xin is just as thrash. Like teemo vs xin is rlly whoever of the 2 gets fed destroys everyone, the other one's just useless but atleast teemo can switch over to tank/slow build.

Flaming by itself is bad and should not a be a thing but i kinda understand the issue. Xin Zhao is maybe autoattack reliant, but unlike teemo, he can build tanky and still remain a threat and useful. Teemo on other hand have 2 option: AP, or On-Hit. If teemo don't build up anything to do damage he is literally useless.. Xin can still do good damage regardless. AP you end pretty squishy and magic resist counter you pretty much, and on-hit, you need to remain in AA range and sometime it mean death if they have strong crowd control and engage on you. And like someone stated, having Teemo is a burden nowaday because most of the time, it end being a 4vs5 for the Teemo team because they barely ever move from their lane...
