Oh and the idiot telling me off was our 'jungle' olaf who died 3 times in like 5m. Before the game seemed to start. Who said Teemo was viable O.O | ||

god he is soooo strong, and it seems if you don't have the perfect hero comp against him you will just outright die. Why does he deal so much damage, so fast, at ridiculous range? I'm sad. edit: I wish there were replays to post so people could tell me what I did wrong, fucking riot. now I'm even sadder. | ||

Play one of the like 20 heroes that can instagib him. The only problem with solo queue is often you can't rely on a teammate to do that. Who do you usually play? | ||

The only problem with solo queue is often you can't rely on a teammate to do that. Who do you usually play? that's easier said than done with a team that protects him, and with his huge range and summoners. Oh, I played vlad, and faced off against him mid, I did okay I guess, I couldn't out harass him since he outranges me, especially after the Q nerf, so I just tried to farm as good as I could. At level 9 I obviously took control of the lane, he was to self confident in his lane control, so I just out harassed him with q and managed to kill him. But didn't matter, he just stream rolled the entire team. He queue up with a taric and they just stuck together from there. our team was a fail comp anyway, but still it was so frustrating not being able to do anything against him. | ||

I don't know, I've never seen a teemo that impressed me, ever. | ||

I'd guess my "smurf" is 18xx ELO (unranked) at this point, so I'm generally against fairly strong competition that are often lvl 30 with full T3 runes. I haven't been playing him as much on my main, but I still win games at a good clip with him. ![]() | ||

He will ghost his way to the enemy golem asap and hide there and wait until the jungler is almost done/done the golem and then insta gib him. He's the only teemo I wouldn't groan at for playing teemo (if I could remember his name). is it lilac? I saw him on stream absolutely raping as teemo | ||

Overall enjoyable game incoming. their team: MLK - 1 kogmaw abuser playing taric, aka EZ mode random plays teemo. dies 9 times and fail-bait teamfights. we end up losing with that team zzzzz.

I can't imagine being ezreal and being able to use arcane shift to get INTO the opponents team and auto attack kogmaw. That's the dumbest thing ever. Same thing with kass, you won't blink into the other team and silence/snare kogmaw. I do agree though that akali is a great counter vs kogmaw. | ||

Also, akali is scary, I find olaf too be pretty scary as well... not too many chars can get back to you if you play it safe even with mediocre tanks | ||
