Possible Teemo Direction

So with the new slew of Yordle lore and the comic of Ziggs/Jinx I tried to think about Teemo's new place in the lore.

In the old lore Teemo was... ambiguous. He was a scout, who would go on long, solitary missions, and was incredibly capable of killing people.

In the new lore, Teemo has yet to be touched, but we can look at the elements around Teemo to maybe get an idea of where he's headed.

  1. We know that Bandle city is not a real place. Whether it exists in another plane of existence or in some sort of magical bubble is yet to be revealed, but Bandle City isn't a physical location that Ezreal could navigate to (or maybe he could, he's probably good at that sort of thing).

  2. We know that Yordles have a weird relationship with humanity, with yordles needing to keep up a glamour or other spell to disguise themselves. The reason being is that humans don't treat yordles all too well.

  3. We know that some yordles like Kled Ziggs Poppy Kennen Heimerdinger exist away from Bandle city, they live among humans due to whatever fascinations they have. Other yordles like Rumble seem to bear a very strong grudge against humanity.

  4. We have an example of a damaged yordle in the form of Veigar, if his story were to keep the same beats when he's updated, he is a yordle who owes his evil disposition to treatment by humans.

So what does this mean for Teemo? Well my idea is that Teemo either directly or indirectly suffered at the hands of humans. Maybe his family was killed or a close friend, or maybe he was almost eaten. But the ensuing trauma has molded him into a killing machine under a happy facade. Perhaps Teemo is staking out his territory in the kumungu, perhaps he's hunting down the humans that wronged him, but I'm sure that whatever he ends up doing will be pretty badass.

I wouldn't mind Teemo just being a psychopathic murderer without any real justification.

Isn't this already Veigar's thing though? His story hook/niche is that he went evil because of the cruelty inflicted upon him by the Noxians. Not saying there can't be similarities, but I think everyone would prefer a Teemo with his own unique story and past.
