Teemo Q rework

So, a lot of people think Teemo 's Q, Blinding Dart, is a toxic abilty.

I was thinking...

Q- Paralyzing Narcotic/Dart Teemo coats a dart in a delayed paralyzing toxin. The target affected will be rooted for .5/.75./1/1.25/1.5 seconds (2?) seconds after being struck.

It probably would deal less damage, maybe lower the AP scaling?

I think this would be an interesting mechanic, especially for Teemo . After being rooted, Teemo could place a shroom under them and have it go off.

The change could make him more useful against mages but Teemo 's main role is too be an extreme lane bully. Since most top laners are AD scalers the instant blind is better for him. Another one of Teemo 's main roles is to kite people, mainly into ambushes or shrooms. Paralysis would dissuade Teemo 's role as a kiter by either making people believe that Teemo already got away (and stop chasing) or smash him with a gap closer (the blind is better against the initial burst of some gap closers like Jax 's). While the idea of a paralysis is interesting, I think it would undermine Teemo 's role in top lane too much.

Of course, if this change would go through, it'd be a skill shot, correct?

Actually his E is the toxic ability. Wheyyyyyy

Interesting suggestion, though I'm not convinced this would "fix" Teemo. Sure it would help him against non-auto attack champions but his kit is still a bit... basic.

Why not change his Q to a straight-line piercing skillshot.


Blinding Dart RANGE: 725 COST: 60 / 70 / 80 / 90 / 100 MANA COOLDOWN: 8

ACTIVE: Teemo shoots a piercing dart in a straight line at the enemy, stunning the first enemy hit for .5 seconds. The dart can hit one more target. All targets hit are dealt magic damage and blinded for a short duration. MAGIC DAMAGE: 100 / 140 / 180 / 220 / 260 (+ 80% AP) BLIND DURATION: 1 / 1.25 / 1.5 / 1.75 / 2 Blinding Dart resets Teemo's autoattack timer.


This would make laning far more interesting for Teemo, and would also allow him to scale better into teamfights as he can hit 2 targets with a good Q.
