Teemo Champion Abilities

Guerrilla Warfare

If Teemo stands still and takes no actions for 1.5 seconds, he becomes stealthed indefinitely. After leaving stealth, Teemo gains the Element of Surprise, increasing his attack speed by 20 / 40 / 60 / 80% for 5 seconds.

In addition, moving inside brush for 1.5 seconds also allows Teemo to become stealthed. P

Blinding Dart

Teemo shoots a dart at the target enemy, dealing them 80 / 125 / 170 / 215 / 260 (+80% of ability power) magic damage and blinding them for a short duration, causing all their attacks to miss for 2.0 / 2.25 / 2.5 / 2.75 / 3 seconds. The blind duration is doubled against minions and monsters. Q

Move Quick

Passive: Grants 12 / 16 / 20 / 24 / 28% increased movement speed until struck by a champion or turret. The passive is restored 5 seconds (static cooldown) after last being struck by a champion or turret.

Active: For 3 seconds, Teemo gains double his passive movement speed and will not lose it even if he is hit. W

Toxic Shot

Passive: Each time Teemo attacks an enemy, he will poison the target, dealing 9 / 23 / 37 / 51 / 65 (+30% of ability power) magic damage on hit and 6 / 12 / 18 / 24 / 30 (+10% of ability power) each second for 4 seconds. The duration of this poison will be refreshed with every subsequent attack, but the damage does not stack.

The total damage is increased by 145% against monsters. E

Noxious Trap

Teemo places a trap which stealths and arms in 1 second. It detonates if an enemy steps on it, dealing 200 / 325 / 450 (+55% of ability power) magic damage by poisoning nearby enemies, applying a 30 / 40 / 50% slow and revealing them for 4 seconds. The traps last 5 minutes. Teemo will store one every 35 / 30 / 25 seconds, and can have a maximum of 3 / 4 / 5 stocked up. Each cast requires and uses a trap. After death, Teemo respawns with 2 mushrooms.

Casting traps on existing Noxious Traps causes them to bounce 3 / 4 / 5 Teemos further in the direction they were originally tossed. R

Teemo Tips and Tricks

When ganking a lane, approach from behind the enemy champion to increase your chances of securing a kill. Avoid using your W until after you’ve been spotted to maximize its effectiveness. Place as many Mushrooms around the map as possible to provide vision and damage enemies who walk into them. You can go invisible near your Mushrooms and attack enemies who step on them for an easy kill.
