Lore:
Teemo is a legend among his yordle brothers and sisters in Bandle City. As far as yordles are concerned, there is something just slightly off about him. While Teemo enjoys the companionship of other yordles, he also insists on frequent solo missions in the ongoing defense of Bandle City. Despite his genuinely warm personality, something switches off inside Teemo's mind during combat so that the lives he must end while on patrol do not burden him. Even as a young recruit, the drill instructors and other trainees found it a little disconcerting that, while Teemo was normally charming and kind, he turned deadly serious and highly efficient the minute combat exercises began. Teemo's superiors quickly steered him toward the Scouts of the Mothership, which is one of Bandle City's most distinguished Special Forces unit alongside the Megling Commandos.
While most yordles do not handle solo scouting missions with a great deal of finesse, Teemo is remarkably efficient at them. His record of success in defending Bandle City from infiltrators easily makes him one of the most dangerous yordles alive, though you'd never know it by having a cup of honey mead with him at his favorite inn. Bandle City chose Teemo as their first champion for the League, and he has taken to it like a duck to water. His signature weapon - a blowgun - uses a rare ajunta poison he personally gathers from the jungles of ***ungu. To help cope with his lengthy periods of isolation, Teemo recently struck up a friendship with Tristana, a fellow League champion and fellow member of Bandle City's Special Forces. This connection is healthy for both yordles, though now Valoran's voracious media outlets circulate rumors that the friendship is turning into a romantic relationship. Regardless, Teemo is a crowd favorite in the League of Legends, and a pint-sized foe that many have come to fear.
"Teemo rides a thin line between chipper compatriot and unrepentant killer, but there's no one else I'd rather have as a friend." - Tristana
Quotes:
Upon selection
"Captain Teemo on duty."
Movement/attacking
"Hut two three four."
"I'll scout ahead!"
"On my way."
"Swiftly!"
"That's gotta sting."
"Yes sir!"
Taunt
"Never underestimate the power of the Scout's code."
Joke
"Size doesn't mean everything."
- Really good DPS, especially late game.
- Mushrooms great to ward since Dominion doesn't allow wards
- Mushrooms are great to place at key locations (health, speed buff)
- Really fast between "Move Quick" and Ghost
Cons-
- Really squishy. Keep mobile to avoid getting killed suddenly by high DPS champs.
- You are usually focused in a team fight so be careful. Try attacking from bushes where you're not easily seen
- If the other team had high AD, and high MR you'll have to change it up a bit.

Let me break down each of the masteries.
Defense:













Offense:








To summarize

Toxic Shot While you don't need to max this out asap,
Toxic Shot (E) is still your most important ability, since your damage is going to be coming from your auto-attack and the poison granted by this passive ability.
Blinding Dart Next you should get
Blinding Dart maxed out since, while it doesn't have the same nuking capabilities as a straight AP
Teemo, it's great for countering high AD champions.
Move Quick This ability is not as important once you've taken the first rank in it. Between
Ghost and
Flash you should have enough mobility to either escape, chase down, or get to a capture point quickly. Additionally, you can use the movement pads on the map found at 3 o'clock, 6 o'clock and 9 o'clock on the map. Mobility shouldn't be a problem so
Move Quick isn't as important as your other abilities.
Noxious Trap I'll cover this in it's own chapter.







To summarize -
Spells you must ALWAYS have:

Very useful spells:

Useful spells:


Spells that you can take, but probably shouldn't:




Spells you should NEVER, EVER take:











- Place them all through out the Jungle. This way you can see where the enemy champions are heading. Being able to see someone running for an unprotected Capture Point is so helpful to your team.
- Place at buff pick up areas (Health Pick Up, Speed Buff Pads, and the center Red + Blue buffs). Nothing is more annoying for the opposing team than wanting to get buffed just and getting dotted or slowed.
- Try and place them around your turrets in areas an enemy champion might stop to capture. If they pop a shroom, and are dotted, they won't be able to capture the point until the dot goes away.
- Place them in EVERY bush on the enemies side as much as you can. When you get your two points on your side and start heading over to the opposing side, having champions running away and getting slowed is so useful for your team. Also, you will never be happier than when you're on one side of the map, and an enemy dies to a mushroom you placed at the start of the game.
- It's great for taking out large amounts of minions. If a lane is getting pushed hard, run up and place a shroom right in the middle of the group of minions. The shroom will shortly detonate, and the entire group is now damaged and dotted.
I know I basically just told you to place mushrooms EVERYWHERE, but I can't stress how important these little poisonous bombs are. You illuminate the jungle, plus give your team open opportunities to slay fleeing enemies.
Now, here is how you know you're placing enough mushrooms down on the map. Whenever you have a mushroom, you get a buff. When you cast the spell

Here is a map of the good placement locations:

You should be placing Mushrooms in these areas at all times. Especially in areas that are controlled by your team.
Here are some secondary areas you can also place mushrooms. These are good areas to set up ganks, escapes, etc:

I am always open to suggestions on Mushroom placement, so if you have any constructive feedback, please let me know.

- You are not going to be able to easily kill anyone with this build.
- If you see an undefended tower, go cap it.
- While capturing a point keep an eye on your mini-map. If you see someone coming for you cap the point to neutral and then get out of there.
- It is okay to die while capturing a point to neutral. If you capture the point and in the process pulled one or two players down to stop you, even if you die it's a win. The missing champions allows your team to outnumber the other champs and possibly capture/hold points.
9x Greater Mark of Vitality - Gives you +0.54 health with a max of +9.72 health at level 18.
9x Greater Seal of Defense - Gives you 0.15 armor with a max of +2.7 armor at level 18.
