Poke mirror with a trump card — your swing creates angles his kit can't answer.
Track: Teemo's Q — Blinding Dart (7s cooldown). Blinds your autos — trade with spells while it is up.
Read from Akshan's seat: which stage windows this plan plays for against Teemo.
This is Akshan's own plan; across 626 pooled games the lane is leaning Teemo.
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Even / skill | Level 1 is even — you both have one ability, and his Q blind cancels your single passive shot, so just last-hit at Avengerang range and don't trade. |
| Level 2 | Akshan | Your second passive shot comes online at 2 and out-damages his Q poke — bait the blind, then auto and double-shot while it is down. |
| Level 3 | Akshan | Heroic Swing at 3 needs a wall to hook and 18s to return, and Blinding Dart erases every shot you fire mid-arc — swing once the dart is spent. |
| Levels 4-5 | Akshan | Levels 4-5 are a stand-off: Blinding Dart is 7s flat at every rank, so he re-blinds twice per Heroic Swing — trade only in the gaps. |
| Level 6 | Akshan | R (Comeuppance) executes off his missing HP — once your Q poke has him low, no dash or shield means he cannot break the locked-on channel. |
| First item | Akshan | Your Youmuu's lethality spike plus the 0.5s E reset on a takedown snowballs the lane — every all-in is lethal on a squishy Teemo. |
| Two+ items | Even / skill | Late, shrooms strip the brush and terrain Going Rogue needs for camouflage and Toxic Shot out-grinds your burst — the long game is his. |
Level 1 is a coinflip — you have only Q and one passive shot, and Blinding Dart cancels your autos, so last-hit at Avengerang range and don't step in to fish a trade. From level 2 your second passive shot tips it, but only in the 7s gaps: throw Q for the out-and-back damage, which the blind cannot touch, then weave the double-shot once the dart is spent. At 3 Heroic Swing arcs off a lane wall, but the shots it fires are blindable too — swing to close or to leave, never to poke into an available dart.
