who does he lose to in lane

I can't answer that question without making DanGR mad at me .

Super heavy sustainers like WW/Udyr/Irelia can beat him, but it tends to become just a freefarm lane and not a real counter.

EDIT: @ above poster, Yorrick ***** teemo six ways from sunday and obliterates ranged champions on average because his poke/sustain is utterly ********.

 

[fkacyan]

I can see early bursters beating him very early before he has access to all three ghouls. Once he has those he's not dying unless he is literally under your tower, and once he gets tear he's never leaving lane.

Ranged champions can ALWAYS safely last hit against him. In order to push them out of lane he makes himself VERY easy to gank, and with no escapes at that.

I still think a good teemo (see: starting with 24+ AP lv 1) would push him out. Mainly because blinding dart outranges everything yorick has.

EDIT: Is yorick even seeing tournament play? There isn't really much argument for him being overpowered if he isn't.

 

[JTB]

ranged champions cant safely last hit against yorick, what are you talking about

 

[Arcansi]

I mean if he walks into range you have an optional potshot on him (longer ranges) and then can back up and be safe while he is overextended.

Unless you've pushed towards his tower, in which case you move towards the brush.

 

[Mogwai]

Teemo with 24 AP is a bad build and blinding dart doesn't do enough damage to make yorick sad and yorick's W definitely is as long range as blinding dart if not further and leads into guaranteed E.

whatever, regarding tourney play, I dunno why he sees very little play. I know that I'm over the top with how strong I say he is, but he's still pretty absurd and my best explanation is that people don't practice him because he's mind-numbingly boring and makes the game less fun for everyone involved.

 

[MacD]

i remember rainman played him a lot for while

was there any reason he stopped?

As you can see, the spells ranges are nowhere CLOSE to the same.

teemo w/ 24 ap start is good to push people out of lane early, and that's what it does.

w/ 24 AP dart will deal around 90 damage to most champions level one, and be safe from harass. And from 2 on his poison does a ton to your already weakened hero too.

This explanation is horrible. You think old TF was fun to play and made the game fun for everyone involved?

Also, fun is subjective.

wow lol, this might be the worst post in the history of the thread

so

which champions do you think are underrated/underused

 

[UTDZac]

so

Eve, Garen, Yi

 

[JTB]

orianna is pretty underused imo

 

[Arcansi]

Eve, Garen, Yi

Wait, how do you judge bad?

@UTD: Eve was actually nerfed with the sole purpose of making her unusuable until the stealth rework (and it succeeded.)

Yi has the same problems, he was just never nerfed.

 

[Deleted member]

he judges bad based on sheer *********** level/ delusion

 

[DMG]

You know ranged champs get **** on by Yorick right? You lose the spell war because he builds for endless spell usage, you lose the sustain war EVEN if you sac damage and go straight up lifesteal early level, you also lose the damage war in sustained engages and in poking, etc

You wanna play Teemo vs my Yorick? 24 AP, won't do anything but the regular Yorick build and strategies. Let's go



Blinding Dart doesn't have 1500 range or whatever your link said. Range: 680 There we go

You also have to factor in that the range on Yorick W extends outside the official circle because the attack is an AoE circle. Kinda like Gragas barrel hits past the edge of the circle indicator. The range difference is tiny enough that even if Teemo can use Q first, he can't use Q AND get away safely. Even starting boots. Q cast time is enough for W to land and trade with you, which is a favorable spot for Yorick to be in since he's not gonna get ***** as hard as you for using spells early on (and he will also be able to heal up your damage while your 24 AP does.... well nothing)

so

a lot of heroes are underused

but the most underused IMO (at 1600 elo) are

amumu
poppy
singed
swain
tryndamere
veigar
volibear
xerath

seriously dude, i could have spent my whole afternoon writing those last 3 posts you made, and i wouldn't have even begun to reach the surface in your deep, deep ocean of wrong and gay

 

[PhantomX]

People don't play Yorick anymore because you just counterpick Trundle and have your jungler camp the bottom two lanes since Yorick can't do jack **** to Trundle. They will probably never kill each other, but now you have a monster troll with huge disruption potential who can prevent Yorick from reaching your carry and/or make him really squishy via ult.

But really you just pick a break even lane and make your jungler kill bot/mid enough that Yorick has nothing to ult. I agree though; hands down worst thing in this game. Can't even have fun with a Yorick in the game.

 

[DMG]

Oh you can have fun with Yorick in the game. 1 out of 10 people will.

 

[@TKbreezy]

maybe that 1500 was missle speed instead of range? that would be some broken *** range on blinding dart if that was it. lol

 

[DMG]

Baron is now blinded from behind red buff!

 

[@TKbreezy]

Oh so here's a good question now that we talking about the jungler.
when Mid has a bad matchup am I supposed to just camp their lane?

am I supposed to camp whatever lane has the worse matchhup in between clearing?

I feel like whenever I camp a lane I'm losing a lot of time/exp whilst accomplishing nothing gankwise.

yesterday during one of my ranked games I level 2 ganked this Leblanc with Riven (our mid was malzahar) and we got her down to like 50 health and burned her flash.

so i left to go get Wolves/Wraiths and some how this malzahar still ends up giving up first blood. was that technically my fault?

 

[fkacyan]

There really isn't a whole lot of exposition needed on why Teemo gets ***** by Yorick. The reason is simple:

Blind Dart doesn't prevent spells from landing, and the ghouls chase him down.

EDIT: 1500 range LMAO I want to play THAT teemo

No, move on. You burned flash and she presumably had to go back. You left to jungle and not waste more time, since if she has to go back that's free time you can do other **** before you would have to "camp" mid anyways.

At that point I'd go jungle and assuming Malz is ahead EXP wise, ask him when he's gonna hit level 6 precisely so you can go there and maybe kill her before she gets 6 or right when that's about to go down. After that, better go help some other lanes lol

 

[Player-3]

new shen makes remade GP look like a baby

 

[Wave⁂]

Could someone explain to me this magical 24 AP Teemo thing? Is it 24 AP from masteries and runes, or is it from Amplifying Tome? Or both?

was that technically my fault?

It's always the jungler's fault

 

[DMG]

Think about rune/mastery combinations without AP Tome

cmon now if someone was gonna go AP teemo, why spend your first item on that without having AP runes?!?!?

 

[fkacyan]

AP reds / yellows / blues / quints

BEST TEEMO

 

[falln]

afk for 5 minutes planting shroom paradise around baron is best teemo

 

[fkacyan]

If you got shroom problems I feel bad for you son, got 99 problems but facechecks aint one

 

[Player-3]

afk for 5 minutes planting easter egg paradise around baron is best teemo

oh god!

[PhantomX]

Teemo lays eggs.

Gonna have to pick up Shen probably. Seems like he will be pretty good as either top (easier sustain with Q change) or in particular as jungle.

 

[Player-3]

Px, he's king of top now lol

 

[voorhese]

Do you guys think it is fair to assume that if your opponents get a 4-1 surrender vote and someone says "really?" as their /all thing instead of like GG, then they are not happy with the vote?

cuz i just got reported cuz i pointed out to the person who said "really" that losing bot like 87-175 cs makes it so you can't really be surprised that your team surrender voted.

 

[Dojo]

Some people generally have a hard time accepting they failed, in which case he did fail that game. That report shouldn't do anything unless you were overly douche about it.
