Aatrox vs Teemo

Updated Jun 4, 2026

Overview

Use high lane pressure to deny Teemo safe farming and force him to last-hit under threat of (Q) sweet spots.
Focus on extended trades where your sustain and (R) healing amplification outlast Teemo's poke and blind.
This is a snowball matchup where you must leverage lane pressure and sustain to punish Teemo's ranged poke and trap control.

Trading pattern

Fish for (Q1) sweet spots and use (E) to reposition for follow-up (Q) casts, extending trades only when (W) blocks Teemo's retreat.
Punish Teemo when he is forced to last-hit inside your (Q) threat or when he walks through your (W) chain.
Avoid trading when (Q) or (E) are on cooldown, as Teemo can safely poke or blind your autos to disengage.

Danger windows

Be cautious when (Q) and (E) are down, as your ability to reposition and threaten sweet spots is reduced.
Avoid extended trades when (R) is unavailable, since Teemo's blind and poke can outlast your sustain.
Watch for Teemo's trap placements in brush and river, which can limit your chase paths and make ganks more dangerous.

Early game

Control the wave near your side to force Teemo into risky last-hits inside your (Q) range.
Avoid short trades after missing (Q1) or (W), as Teemo can punish with blind and poison autos.
Prepare to use (E) for spacing correction and (W) to trap Teemo when he tries to disengage or walk through your chain.

Power spikes

At level 6, use (R) to extend fights with healing and resets; commit only when you have space to fight or force recalls.
First fighter item spike enables stronger repeated (Q) trades; pressure the wave and punish Teemo's inability to disengage cleanly.
Respect Teemo's level 6 trap control and blind timing by sweeping traps before engaging or chasing.

Win conditions

Snowball lane pressure by landing repeated (Q) sweet spots and trapping Teemo with (W) to force recalls or kills.
Use (R) windows to convert close trades into kills and establish side-lane pressure.
Deny Teemo safe farming by controlling wave position and punishing his attempts to last-hit under poke and traps.
