Playing as Teemo

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Save your dart for auto attackers

    Save Blinding Dart (Q) for the champion who relies on autos, right as they start a trade: blinded, they miss their autos.

  2. Ambush while invisible

    Stand still for a moment to turn invisible with Guerrilla Warfare (passive), then strike first: when you leave invisibility, you gain attack speed.

  3. Save Move Quick to escape a gank

    Save the Move Quick (W) sprint to escape a gank: you have no dash, and its bonus isn't lost when you get hit.

  4. Place your mushrooms on busy paths

    Place Noxious Trap (R) on busy paths: jungle entrances, around dragon and Baron, river brushes. Stealthed, it slows and reveals the enemy who steps on it.

Playing against Darius

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Short trades

    Take a short trade, then back off: each of his hits applies a Hemorrhage (passive) stack, and at five stacks he gains a massive AD bonus.

  2. Leave his blade or hug him

    Step out of range or stick to him when he casts Decimate (Q): only the blade, at the edge, heals him and applies Hemorrhage (passive).

  3. Boots early

    Buy your boots early: before he hits level 6, Apprehend (E) is his only spell to get back on you, on a 26 to 16 second cooldown.

  4. Respect his level 6

    Once he hits level 6, don't let him put five Hemorrhage (passive) stacks on you: Noxian Guillotine (R) gains true damage with each stack.
