How to win lane as Teemo against Gragas · 49.32% win rate (444 Emerald+ games, lolalytics, sampled July 2026) · Matchup data reviewed on patch 26.15
Build MR — blind his autos, shroom his E-Q.
Track: Gragas's E — Body Slam (14–12s cooldown). His engage. Blind + kite it.
Read from Teemo's seat: which stage windows this plan plays for against Gragas.
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Gragas | Gragas's passive is Happy Hour — a small heal every time he casts, not barrel stacks — but his AP base damage still beats your bare poison, so hold max auto range at level 1. |
| Level 2 | Even / skill | Body Slam is online but Blinding Dart cancels the Drunken Rage auto that follows the dash — neither of you has a clean kill window, so small poke trades split the advantage. |
| Level 3 | Gragas | His full AP kit is live at level 3 and Body Slam at this rank deals enough burst to trade through a single blind — he holds the commit advantage if you misposition, which tips this stage his way. |
| Levels 4-5 | Teemo | Q is only rank 2-3 but Body Slam is still 13 seconds, so you always hold two blinds per dash — blind the Drunken Rage auto and walk the DoT stack out of his range. |
| Level 6 | Teemo | Shrooms on both river entries and tribush make every Body Slam commit potentially lethal for him — your first-use Noxious Trap placement turns his preferred engage path into a minefield. |
| First item | Teemo | Nashor's Tooth on-hit venom stacks every blinded Gragas auto window — your damage finally exceeds his W damage-reduction and you can dictate every short trade in this window. |
| Two+ items | Gragas | Full AP Gragas out-sustains your DoT on Happy Hour heals alone and can Explosive Cask you into his team for a one-shot — shift to shroom-warded splitpush rather than looking for solo kills. |
Gragas owns level 1 cleanly — Happy Hour heals him a little on every cast, his AP base damage is ahead of your bare poison, and he can Body Slam forward if you stand too close to last-hit. Keep auto-attack range, don't step past the minion line, and accept that this is a farm-and-identify minute, not a poke minute. At level 2 it genuinely splits: Blinding Dart erases the Drunken Rage auto he wants after Body Slam, and that drink has a one-second wind-up you can see and answer. Bait him to walk into your range without barreling, blind the instant he commits, and walk the poison out — never let him get a clean E-in-then-auto pattern because his AP damage is already live.
