Teemo is banned in about 18.0% of games at this tier, one figure for the whole champion since bans happen before roles are picked. What ban rate measures.
Teemo's Top win rate is 1.6 percentage points above an even 50% — Should I Dodge's win-probability model varies by about 4.8 percentage points of standard deviation from lobby to lobby across all ranks, purely from which champions get drawn, so this gap is smaller than that noise, not solid evidence the champion is unusually strong or weak right now.
Teemo is tracked in 3 roles at this tier scope; the per-tier, threat, and counters reporting below all use its highest-pick-rate role, Top — its numbers in Jungle (1.5% pick rate) and Support (1.4% pick rate) stay visible in the table above but aren't carried into the rest of this page.

Our Read on Teemo
Reading the Numbers
Teemo is the sort of champion whose reputation outruns his power. As a top laner he plays a game of attrition and irritation: Blinding Dart makes your basic attacks miss, Toxic Shot poisons everything he hits, and a mushroom field turns your jungle into a place you must think about. A figure alone cannot describe how annoying that is to face, and his results swing with how well the opposing team adjusts. When you see him locked in, assume that whoever picked him wants to control space on the map, not win fights directly.
When a Teammate Locks Teemo
With a Teemo on your team, ask him to turn his mushrooms into map control. Noxious Trap places a stealthed mushroom that can last for minutes, reveals the area around it, and slows and poisons any enemy who triggers it, and only champion basic attacks can kill one. That is ideal before an objective fight or around a flank route. His Blinding Dart is a real answer to a melee carry, because a blinded target misses basic attacks. He also turns invisible if he stands still, so he is excellent at ambushes.
When the Enemy Has Teemo
Blindness is the part that costs you the most if you rely on basic attacks. A dart makes your next attacks miss for a few seconds, so if you are a marksman or a fighter, step out of its range, or answer him with abilities. Do not walk blindly through brush or near objectives, because a mushroom you cannot see will slow you and reveal you to the whole team. Only champion basic attacks clear them, so assign someone to sweep in front of the group. His own damage output is gentle, and patience nearly always beats him.
