Looking for Ranked Team or Duo Partner
I can play any lane. Can =/= Should, however. This is the order I'm most comfortable with, from most preferred to least: Top/Support/ADC/Jungle/Mid. Mid is terrible for Teemo, so many high-ap burst assassins, he is not meant to be there. Jungle is okay. Without CC there isn't much opportunity for ganking, but he is a beast at counterganks.
My build is shifting into On-Hit. I used to love the glass cannon, full AP life, but with the nerf to AP items... Not worth. Especially considering all the wonderful changes made to On-Hit. Guinsoo's, Gunblade, Lichbane...Oh man, I can't even explain how nice these work together. The thing I have found that is best about this build is that most people build straight up MR vs Teemo, while On-Hit utilizes both stats, with additional damages from passive's/actives. My experience with On-Hit during preseason has been phenomenal.
I am Eastern Standard Time (Pennslyvania), and work weekdays from 8am-4pm. I have Ventrilo/Skype/Curse so I am available on any of those. S4- Plat 4, S5- Gold 1.
Here are some reasons why I would be great for your Ranked Team:
Advantages:
-
I can handle solo lane without help. This means that my gameplay is consistent enough that I do not need assistance from the jungler (Unless it is an easy kill). I have a strong understanding on the flow of the laning phase to know if I need to play aggressively or defensively.
-
**I'm used to being focused. ** Let's face it. Teemo players are always focused, even if they aren't doing good. Playing Teemo has given me a smart sense of positioning and map awareness, otherwise I just wouldn't be doing as good with Teemo as I am.
-
I know how to play vs anyone Playing one champion, you learn to fight against your counters. A lot of my success stems from the fact that someone might choose a counter against me (i.e. Yorick), but have not played that champion often. This is where skill really matters, playing Yorick a couple of times pales in comparison to playing every single game as Teemo. I know each and every one of my counters weaknesses, and how to poke them where it hurts.
-
I realize Teemo's inherent weaknesses and work on compensating for them. Everyone has heard that Teemo's weaknesses really start to shine during teamfights. I work specifically hard on compensating for this by being as available to my team as possible. If I'm carrying, I will do my best to take out the enemy's carries. If I'm not doing as great, Teemo is great for distracting and peeling enemy's off of your carries.
Disadvantages:
-
**Squishy ** Yes, Teemo is squishy. With little room for growth on defensive stats, Teemo is pretty much forced to always go offensive. Not that it's a bad thing, just that top lane usually has a tank or bruiser. I feel like this is not a problem, because almost every single top pick jungler is tanky currently.
-
**No CC ** This is an inherent problem with Teemo's design- the only CC he provides is a slow from his shroom. The way I address this issue is with Hextech Gunblade. The changes to this item are incredible. Full AP Teemo is out of the question, with the AP item nerfs. One thing Teemo is great at is slowing down his opponent, and ensuring he cannot escape, because he will hit into a shroom!
I am a team player with a strong emphasis on flow of the game and understanding when to make calls. But I also know when to listen to my teammates. One thing you should note about me is that my rank is not really an accurate representation. S4 I tried really hard and was very excited to hit Platinum. When S5 came in, Riven was dominating after pre-season. That meant sad times for me, and I stopped playing for most of S5. My rank decayed into Gold 5, then I started playing again, and quickly rose up. My win/loss is not accurate, because when I first started S5 (which Riven was supreme) I lost like...Every single game. My win/loss was around 2-15, then I quit. I came back, and have been kicking major butt, and would have been Platinum this season if I played Ranked more often.
I am looking for a Ranked Team because, frankly, I've never been in one. I believe that if you give me a shot, I can show you what a true Teemo player looks like.
