Who Wins
- Pre-6, you lose this lane consistently.
- Teemo's range, W movement speed, and sustained poison damage mean you cannot reliably stick to him or trade favorably, and your Q does not make you untargetable long enough to dodge his full damage pattern.
- Post-6, your R gives you enough sustain to survive extended fights, but Teemo can still kite you with W and his blind on Q still cancels your Q mid-dash if timed correctly, so you are not suddenly dominant.
How to Trade
- Your best trade pattern is to wait for Teemo to push into you, then use your Q to gap-close when he is auto-attacking the wave and committed to a position.
- You want short, all-in bursts using Q into E into autos with R active, never extended trades where his poison stacks and your healing cannot keep pace with his damage.
Wave Control
- Let Teemo push the wave to your tower early and farm safely under it, as fighting him in the open at levels 1-4 is a losing proposition.
- Once you have R and some items, look to freeze near your tower to deny him safe poke range and force him to overextend for CS.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Do not use your Q reactively to dodge his Q blind — Teemo players will bait this by auto-attacking and then immediately casting Q, causing your Q to land into the blind.
- Burning your gap-close on a baited blind leaves you standing in melee range with no escape and full poison ticking.
