Teemo vs Gwen

Updated Jun 4, 2026

Overview

Use Teemo's ranged poke and (Q) blind to pressure Gwen and deny her melee trades early.
Control side-lane paths with (R) traps to limit Gwen's mobility and punish her attempts to engage.
Prioritize lane pressure to prevent Gwen from safely stacking (Q) and scaling into extended fights.

Trading pattern

Trade short bursts using (Q) to blind Gwen's autos and (E) poison to chip her down, then back off before she can stack damage.
Punish Gwen when (W) is down by increasing aggression and forcing her to take poke damage.
Use (R) traps to control fight paths and punish Gwen if she tries to chase or escape through trapped areas.

Danger windows

Be cautious when (Q) is down, as Gwen can engage with her melee autos and (E) dash more safely.
Respect Gwen's level 6 (R) slow and multi-cast threat that can turn extended trades lethal.
Avoid standing in trapped areas without vision, as Gwen can capitalize on your limited mobility and all-in potential.

Early game

Abuse Teemo's early high lane pressure by poking Gwen with (E) poison autos and blinding her key auto attacks with (Q).
Place (R) traps in brushes and retreat paths to discourage Gwen's all-ins and ganks before level 6.
Avoid extended trades where Gwen can stack (Q) and use (W) defensively; keep trades short and poke-focused.

Power spikes

At level 6, place (R) traps to control side-lane and retreat paths, increasing pressure and punishing Gwen's limited escape options.
After first damage item, leverage stronger poison trades and (Q) blind timing to force Gwen into unfavorable fights.
Respect Gwen's level 6 spike when she gains (R) slow and chase potential; avoid extended fights inside her (W) mist zone.

Win conditions

Deny Gwen's ability to safely stack (Q) by maintaining lane pressure and using (Q) blind to win short trades.
Control side-lane and river paths with (R) traps to limit Gwen's mobility and jungle gank angles.
Use ranged poke and trap setups to force Gwen into unfavorable fights before she reaches her item spikes and extended skirmish strength.
