Who Wins
- You win most 1v1s pre-6 due to your tankiness and Q percent health damage, though Teemo's Q blind can disrupt your trading.
- Post-6 you become significantly stronger as your R provides kill pressure and disengage while Teemo's R doesn't improve his dueling.
How to Trade
- Look for short trades using Q when Teemo steps up to harass, then immediately back off to avoid extended trades where his poison and blind become problematic.
- Your best all-ins come after baiting out his Q blind, then engaging with E against a wall for the stun combo.
Wave Control
- Push early levels to establish priority and prevent Teemo from freely poking you under tower.
- After level 6, maintain slow pushes to build up minion waves that force Teemo to choose between farming safely or roaming, limiting his map impact.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't chase Teemo through his mushroom fields in river or jungle without vision, as the damage and slow will often turn favorable trades against you.
- Avoid using E without wall positioning as Teemo can easily kite you without the stun component.
