How to win lane as Olaf against Teemo · 58.48% win rate over 1,927 Emerald+ games · Updated 2026-07-27
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Olaf | You win first contact — Q-slow into an auto, and your passive attack speed ramps as you take his poke while his blind only delays your autos, not your E. |
| Level 2 | Olaf | At 2 you add E for a guaranteed true-damage burst through his blind that his poke can't answer. |
| Level 3 | Olaf | Q-slow into E true damage takes half his bar, and picking the axe back up refunds the Q to re-slow him before he kites. |
| Levels 4-5 | Olaf | You out-trade his poke with W-omnivamp healing the poison while your slows keep him pinned in E range. |
| Level 6 | Olaf | Ragnarok makes you unstoppable with no CC to peel you, and he has no dash — Q, E, and W run him down for the kill. |
| First item | Olaf | Your bruiser-core spike is your most oppressive lane window; keep forcing the all-in on his blind timer. |
| Two+ items | Even / skill | He out-scales the duel's relevance — shrooms zone objectives and he splitpushes safely, so close the game before two items. |
Teemo's blind (Q) only kills your autos — it does nothing to your E, which is point-blank guaranteed true damage. So the early game is about landing your own Q first: throw the axe to slow him, walk up, and E him for a true-damage chunk he can't poke back through. His passive move speed lets him kite, but a stuck Q-slow pins him in E range. Don't waste E chasing if your Q misses, and accept a little poison damage — your passive ramps your attack speed as he chips you, so you only get scarier.
