How to beat Teemo

Common role: Top

A ranged poke lane-bully who blinds attackers and litters the map with mushrooms.

What makes Teemo dangerous

Teemo out-ranges melee tops, blinds them with his Q (making their autos miss) and stacks poison. His ultimate mushrooms zone objectives and jungle paths, and reveal you. He's a lane-phase menace but a small, squishy target in teamfights.

How to play against Teemo

• 1His blind (Q) only stops auto-attacks, not abilities. If you're an ability-based champion, trade with your spells while blinded.
• 2Buy a Control Ward and Oracle Lens to clear his mushrooms around objectives — most of his mid-game power is denying vision and space.
• 3Freeze the wave near your tower to deny his short-range poke, then punish when he steps up to farm.
• 4In teamfights he's tiny and squishy — dive him first. He has no escape besides his passive stealth when standing still.

Weaknesses to exploit

• ✓Extremely squishy — dies to any burst or dive.
• ✓Blind is useless against ability-based damage.
• ✓Falls off relative to scaling carries in the late game.
• ✓Mushrooms are cleared by pink wards and sweepers.

Abilities & how to counter them

What each of Teemo's abilities does — and how to play around it.

• P
  Técnicas de Guerrilha

  Se Teemo permanece imóvel e não faz nada por um curto período, fica Invisível por tempo indefinido. Caso esteja em um arbusto, Teemo pode manter sua Invisibilidade enquanto se move. Ao sair da Invisibilidade, Teemo ativa Elemento-Surpresa, aumentando a própria Velocidade de Ataque por alguns segundos.

  Strong: stealth when standing still lets him ambush and escape. Weak: breaks the moment he moves or is revealed — sweepers and pinks expose him.

• Q
  Dardo Ofuscante

  Obscurece a visão de um inimigo com um poderoso veneno, causando dano e cegueira ao alvo pela duração do efeito.

  Strong: blinds you, making auto-attacks miss — brutal for AD melees. Weak: only affects autos, not abilities — trade with your spells while blinded.

• W
  Mover Depressa

  Teemo corre por aí, aumentando passivamente sua Velocidade de Movimento até ser atingido por um Campeão ou torre inimiga. Ele pode sair em disparada para receber Velocidade de Movimento adicional (que não é interrompida por ataques) por um breve período.

• E
  Tiro Tóxico

  Cada um dos ataques de Teemo envenenará o alvo %i:OnHit% ao contato, causando dano no impacto e a cada segundo seguinte por 4s.

• R
  Armadilha Venenosa

  Teemo arremessa uma armadilha venenosa explosiva usando um dos cogumelos que guardou na mochila. Se um inimigo pisa na armadilha, ela solta uma nuvem venenosa que causa Lentidão e dano ao longo do tempo. Se Teemo arremessar um cogumelo em cima de outro, ele saltará, recebendo alcance adicional.

  Strong: mushrooms zone objectives, reveal you and stack poison. Weak: cleared by Control Wards and Oracle Lens — sweep before you path through.

Itemization

His damage-over-time poison is magic, so early magic resist (Mercury's Treads, a Null-Magic Mantle) is efficient. As a melee, Blade of the Ruined King or lifesteal helps you sustain through poke and out-duel him once you're on him.
