How to win lane as Lucian against Teemo · 37.5% win rate over 16 Emerald+ games · Updated 2026-07-27
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Even / skill | Even — neither of us has a real Level 1, so I just last-hit and respect that his auto range and poison start matter before mine do. |
| Level 2 | Lucian | My Level 2 Q plus the Lightslinger double-tap is a brutal burst before his E poison is stacking — this is my single best window to chunk him. |
| Level 3 | Teemo | His Q blind comes online and negates my Lightslinger autos while his passive move speed kites me out of W-mark range — the lane flips to him here. |
| Levels 4-5 | Teemo | Stacked E poison plus the blind on a short cooldown out-trades my whole double-shot pattern, and his speed keeps him outside my marksman range. |
| Level 6 | Teemo | The Culling is just damage here — he blinds the setup and shroom-walls the angle, so 6 doesn't give me the lane back. |
| First item | Teemo | His Blackfire Torch / Liandry's into my low base HP makes the poke war lethal before my Lightslinger can answer it. |
| Two+ items | Teemo | He out-scales and out-ranges me with shrooms and splitpush while I'm a weak ADC scaler — I lose the 1v1 and have to group instead. |
Level 1 is a wash — neither of us wants to commit, so last-hit and watch his range. Level 2 is my one real window: Q into the Lightslinger double-shot is a genuine burst before he has E poison stacking, so if he steps up to CS I unload it and back out. But the second he has his Q blind up, my whole kit deflates — a blinded Lightslinger does almost nothing, and my W mark needs me to be in his range to cash the move speed. Don't throw a Q I can't follow up on; trade only on the blind cooldown.
