Warwick vs Teemo

Updated Jun 4, 2026

Overview

Warwick wants to force extended melee fights to out-sustain and punish Teemo's ranged poke.
Prioritize lane pressure to deny Teemo a safe scaling lane and prevent trap setup control.
This is a snowball matchup where Warwick must use early dueling to prevent Teemo from controlling the lane with poke and traps.

Trading pattern

Take extended trades holding (E) to fear and absorb Teemo's burst, then use (Q) to sustain through poison poke.
Punish Teemo when (Q) is down by engaging all-ins and using (R) to suppress and lock him down.
Avoid short trades where Teemo can blind your autos; instead, force fights into melee range where Warwick excels.

Danger windows

Be cautious when (E) is on cooldown, as Teemo's poke and blind can punish trades more effectively.
Avoid engaging into Teemo's trap-covered zones without vision or sweepers to prevent ganks or slows.
After missing (R), your pick threat drops significantly; play more cautiously until it is available again.

Early game

Use level 1-3 to engage extended trades using (E) to absorb Teemo's initial burst and (Q) to heal through poison damage.
Avoid fighting when (E) is down to prevent being kited or heavily poked.
Track low-health targets with (W) and look for chase opportunities after Teemo missteps or uses (Q).

Power spikes

At level 3, Warwick gains full sustain and fear, enabling stronger extended trades; use this to pressure Teemo early.
At level 6, unlock (R) to force picks or all-ins from a distance; bait Teemo's movement before committing.
Respect Teemo's level 6 trap control with (R); sweep or avoid trapped areas to maintain safe engage paths.

Win conditions

Win lane by out-sustaining Teemo in extended melee fights using (Q) healing and (E) fear to absorb poke.
Use (W) to track and chase low-health Teemo, forcing him into unfavorable all-ins with (R) suppression.
Deny Teemo trap control by sweeping and pressuring early to prevent his side-lane dominance and scaling poke impact.
