Playing as Teemo
Tips to maximize your impact
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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 Vayne
How to counter and exploit weaknesses
- Don't fight with your back to a wall
Don't stand with your back to a wall against her: Condemn (E) knocks you back, and if you hit terrain, you're stunned.
- Short, repeated trades
Take short, repeated trades: she's fragile, and on the third consecutive hit on you, Silver Bolts (W) adds true damage based on your max health.
- Don't feed her kills during her ult
During Final Hour (R), back off rather than risk your life: each champion she kills after damaging them extends the effect.
