Teemo I can help with you being on the same level of all other champs. That is, all other champs being on same level as you.

Considering that Teemo's blinding dart has an effect on both Lee and Rek'Sai and it does not hinder vision of any champion, we can come to conclusion that it doesn't actually blind his enemies. Rather, it's probably a neurotoxin that disrupts the communication between brain and arms/legs/whatever and makes aiming impossible (which also explains why Graves shoots in random direction when attacking while blinded).

But hey! That's just a theory! A Teemo theory! Thanks for reading!

(And no, it doesn't explain how he can blind robots and rocks)

You don't question the powers of an Arch-Demon. They just happen.

I mean, this is also the game where Vlad is Hemomancer and all about that blood until it comes to Tranfusion. Then suddenly he's Lifeforcemancer and drains the lifeforce of machines and somehow still gets blood. Blood magic, the biggest mystery.

Im pretty sure i read somewhere that that riot said that teemo's dart on lee restores his sight which is so overwhelming for lee that he misses his attacks due to sensory overload.

Sozan51 votes

Uh, that was in non-canon corner of ask rito though (alongside with the origin of Malzahar dagger).

That said - it would be VERY impressive if Teemo could restore sight in eyes that were burned and melted.

But she says that she sees things clearly?

Sexy Jack Rabbit3 votes

I'm pretty sure it's metaphorical. She sees clearly as in sees the truth.

Elikain6 votes

It isn't metaphorical. Canonically, she can sense the world around her because of the Black Ice she uses. Essentially, think of it as a magical sonar of some sorts.

When you think about it, Lissandra isn't really a bad gal. When she says she wants to cover the world in ice, what she really means is that she wants to see the world D':

Lissandra can see thermal body temperatures. That's my thought, like since she's probably the coldest thing existing, she's probably like: "Anything warmer than me must be frozen solid and or corrupted." Also I love this bitch, she's my main and she's a badass old lady. (I'm also not sure if she has feet.)

So she's basically Toph before Taliyah was mentioned. I think she see with the ice right?

Yeah, it's theorized that's why she screams when casting spells. She's basically using Echolocation to decipher her surroundings.

Just to clarify for those who don't know, but while she is indeed blind, her powers as an Iceborn give her a kind of reverse infrared/thermal vision, which is effectively the same thing as infrared/thermal vision.

Y'know, now that I think about it, does Lee Sin use echolocation or is his hearing just really precise?

Livin like Riven7 votes

Probably uses echolocation, since his skill names are Sonic Wave and Resonating Strike.

Well, I mean, his Q is called Resonating Strike so I suppose there's some echolocation involved

Before she became an Iceborn, Lissandra was blinded by an ursine (one of Volibear's people), and when she gained control of Black Ice she created the horns that cover the top part of her face in order to sense her surroundings.

Somebody knows the actual lore behind this? How did se loose/give up her vision?

A urisine blinded her before she became an iceborn.

Too bad the only time this is ever mentioned lore wise is in a random Riot post 1 year after her release.

Seriously how did they miss mentioning this important piece of lore?

GreenLore1 votes

I think its now one of the ingame tips as well.

Junkο1 votes

Ah yeah I forgot those even exist because they very rarely actually work as intended.

So if Lissandra and Lee Sin had dinner...would it be a blind date?
