How to win lane as Teemo against Vladimir · 50.91% win rate over 823 Emerald+ games · Updated 2026-07-27
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Even / skill | Level 1 Vladimir only has Transfusion Q — it costs his own health to cast, so trade auto-poke for auto-poke in the health-cost window before his heal resolves and bank minuscule but real HP leads. |
| Level 2 | Teemo | Blinding Shot at level 2 deletes his entire auto-trade window — fire it the instant he walks up, and your E poison ticks through a trade where his autos do literally zero damage. |
| Level 3 | Teemo | Full kit online: Q-blind into auto-E-auto with W escape ready punishes any Sanguine Pool cooldown and builds a meaningful HP lead while he cannot retaliate cleanly. |
| Levels 4-5 | Even / skill | Pre-Liandry's Vladimir out-heals your DoT in extended trades, so keep exchanges short — poke and retreat on Sanguine Pool's 26-second timer rather than committing to a full pattern. |
| Level 6 | Even / skill | His Hemoplague ult is now online and changes every all-in calculation — shroom the map and use your level 6 to make roaming and dives costly, not to duel him after R is available. |
| First item | Teemo | Liandry's DoT cuts through Crimson Rush healing and your shrooms wall off his side of the lane: force all-ins strictly on Sanguine Pool's downtime — his cooldown is your kill window. |
| Two+ items | Vladimir | Two-item Vladimir heals faster than you poison him, Zhonya's or Cosmic Drive covers his pool gap, and Hemoplague bursts you before W gets you out — split-push in a shroom-warded lane and let your team fight his R elsewhere. |
At level 1 Vladimir's only tool is his Q Transfusion — it heals him and pokes, but it costs health, so auto-poke him back during the health-cost window before the heal resolves. The moment you hit level 2, every time he walks up to Q you hit Blinding Shot first: his autos miss, your E poison ticks, and his heal barely covers the exchange deficit. The critical rule these three levels is to never commit your Q while his Sanguine Pool is available — he simply pools through it, you waste the blind, and he wins the trade free. Bank small leads, keep the wave slightly toward your side, and let his weak level 1-3 health-cost pattern bleed him into a freeze you can exploit.
