How to win lane as Akshan against Teemo · 55.56% win rate over 45 Emerald+ games · Updated 2026-07-27
| 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 lets you arc off a wall to dodge his autos and the poison they carry while chipping — he has no dash to escape the swing. |
| Levels 4-5 | Akshan | Levels 4-5 are your peak laning: Q poke plus the move speed on champion hits lets you stick, and his blind can't stop every trade. |
| 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, his shrooms and Toxic Shot out-grind your burst and zone your camo roams — your lethality falls off, so the long game evens out. |
Level 1 is a coinflip — you have only Q and one passive shot, and his Q blind cancels your autos, so last-hit at Avengerang range and don't step into his auto range to fish a trade. From level 2 your second passive shot tips it: throw Q for the out-and-back damage, weave the double-shot, and bait his blind before you commit. At 3 your Heroic Swing lets you arc off a lane wall to dodge his autos and the Toxic Shot poison they apply while still chipping him — he has no dash, so once you reach him he can't peel you off.
