Cho'Gath vs Teemo

Updated Jun 3, 2026

Overview

Prioritize stable farming and passive sustain to outlast Teemo's poke and scale into a durable front line.
Manage lane pressure carefully to avoid giving Teemo free ranged poke and trap control while setting up for scaling through (R) stacks.

Trading pattern

Fish for (Q) knockups on minion last-hits and follow with (W) silence only when Teemo commits to trade.
Avoid long trades when (Q) or (W) are down to prevent being kited or poked down.
Punish Teemo's predictable movement and cooldown windows by landing (Q) and chaining (W) to disrupt his autos.

Danger windows

Be cautious when (Q) is missed, as your engage threat significantly drops and Teemo can trade more aggressively.
Respect (Q) blind and trap zones which can negate your auto damage and limit your mobility.
Avoid extended trades before your first tank item and (R) stacks when you are more vulnerable to poke and kiting.

Early game

Focus on last-hitting safely to avoid Teemo's poke and wait for predictable minion movement to land (Q).
Avoid extended early trades before level 6 when you lack tank items and (R) execute power.
Use passive sustain to survive poke and maintain lane presence without overcommitting.

Power spikes

At level 6, use (R) to execute low-health targets or secure objectives, increasing your durability and threat.
After stacking multiple (R), become a tanky front line forcing enemies to respect your zone control with (Q) and (W).
Respect Teemo's level 6 trap control and poison autos by sweeping traps before engaging or chasing.

Win conditions

Control space with (Q) and (W) to limit Teemo's poke and force him into unfavorable trades.
Sustain through poke with passive healing and scale by stacking (R) to become a durable front line and objective threat.
Use your crowd control and execute to secure kills or objectives, denying Teemo safe scaling and map control.
