in challenger, i see some people playing teemo ad with botrk and tank build, and some other play teemo ap.
But what's better ? i guess if pro play both, teemo is perfeclty viable in both way. but really ? it sound strange that there is no consensus on teemo :(
AD is a better split push build as you use the shrooms mostly for slow and focus on beating down towers and just kiting enemies, so the AD helps a ton.
AP gives better damage on his abilities, and can be great for objective control and discouraging the enemy chasing your team if you lose a team fight. Shrooms do tons of damage so getting them set up on escape paths and setting them up around stuff like baron or dragon in the areas the enemy will want to come through to stop you is how you make or break the game as AP teemo.
The highest win-rate in plat and above for teemo has this build:
Runes are:
Marks: Magic Pen Seals: Armor Glyphs: Scaling AP Quints: AP

This is my youtube channel, im diamond, i was diamond 1 in season 4 and i only play teemo, watch a video it'll show you how to play teemo properly. :)
AP. Always AP.
He only scales with AP, but is completely auto-attack reliant, which is why you see items like BotRK built on him.
It's nice to go hybrid, because it's hard to itemize against.
Tank build is kind of stupid, seeing as how he doesn't have the CC or engage to warrant doing it.
AD with a couple tank items is better for split pushing and teamfighting. AP is more for the annoyance of high damage map control and threat of assassinating carries.
Teemo can be built as AP or AD, but you'll probably have more success with a magic penetration+CDR+AP build like 13ennetto posted. Teemo has a strong landing phase against some champions, but he's not the strongest champion for a 1v1 (or team fight) in the late game (though he can assassinate lone ADCs because of his blind). You want your mushrooms to do the heavy lifting for you as Teemo.
To paraphrase a certain splashing pokemon, Teemo can build anything/go anywhere and still make your life a living hell. So rather than builds, I'd suggest looking for your inner demon.
It depends entirely on what you want. If you need AD sustained dmg, teemo can do that.
If you want more burst, and you want his shrooms to do actual damage, then AP is better.
