Teemo vs Heimerdinger

Updated Jun 4, 2026

Overview

Use Teemo's ranged poke and (Q) blind to pressure Heimerdinger and deny him safe farming under turrets.
Prioritize lane control and trap placement to punish Heimerdinger's turret zones and limit his setup opportunities.

Trading pattern

Trade with repeated poisoned autos and use (Q) to blind Heimerdinger's turret-assisted poke.
Punish Heimerdinger when his (E) stun is on cooldown by stepping forward for short trades.
Use (R) traps to control side paths and retreat routes, forcing Heimerdinger to reposition or lose turret advantage.

Danger windows

Be cautious when Heimerdinger has multiple turrets set and (E) stun ready, as he can punish extended trades heavily.
Avoid engaging when (Q) blind is down, as Heimerdinger's autos and turret damage become more threatening.
Watch for gank vulnerability if you overpush trying to clear turrets; maintain vision and trap coverage.

Early game

Aggressively harass Heimerdinger early before he fully sets up turrets to reduce his zone control.
Use (Q) blind on Heimerdinger's autos to minimize his poke damage during short trades.
Avoid extended fights inside turret zones before level 6 and focus on short trades and trap placement.

Power spikes

At level 6, place (R) traps in brushes and river to control Heimerdinger's turret zones and protect escape paths.
After first damage item, increase short trade frequency using (Q) blind and poison autos to chip Heimerdinger down.
Respect Heimerdinger's level 6 (R) upgrade which enhances his zone control and burst potential; avoid fighting near multiple turrets then.

Win conditions

Win by denying Heimerdinger safe turret setups through aggressive poke and well-placed (R) traps.
Use (Q) blind to negate his auto damage and force him to farm under pressure, limiting his lane control.
Control side-lane paths with traps to restrict Heimerdinger's movement and create safe windows for short trades and chip damage.
