Teemo is unstoppable in ARAM after item removal
Just when everyone thought that Teemo wasn’t the worst champion to face in League of Legends, Riot Games has made him impossible to deal with.
Teemo’s reign of terror is back in full, thanks to the removal Oracle’s Extract from ARAM in patch 10.23. Oracle’s Extract granted true sight and obscured vision of hidden enemy units for five minutes. It allowed players to detect Teemo’s mushrooms on the map and move around safely.
After the removal of Oracle’s Extract, the game introduced a new mechanic where Siege Minions grant vision as they move through the map. The Siege Minion works like a moving Oracle’s Extracts. The problem is that, like any other minion, it can be killed. Teams depend on the minions for vision, which becomes a problem once Teemo hits level six and starts filling the map with mushrooms.
While Teemo is the most notorious beneficiary of this change, it’s not the only favored champion. Jhin, Shaco, and Nidalee are also reaping the benefits from the Oracle’s Extract removal. These are champions that can set invisible traps on the map. To make things worse, it’s possible to get all four of these champions on the same team.
Despite the complaints, Riot is not considering going back on this change, so players must get used to it.
It feels like playing against Teemo in the ARAM mode is just mission impossible. Teams must play a defensive style and wait for the Siege Minion, or they could also ignore the mushrooms and march head first into battle.
For teams with a Teemo on their ranks, there are some tricks to make his presence even more annoying.
Pick up the Minion Dematerializer rune
In ARAM, it’s not all about the damage, picking defensive options might be better in the long run. Minion Dematerializer is part of the Inspiration rune tree and it allows players to execute minions. Using this rune to target the Siege Minions from the enemy team will frustrate the opponents quickly.
Place the mushrooms in the bottom side of the map
The turrets in the Howling Abyss are placed in the middle of the lane, so minions are forced to detour. Unless minions are following a target, they tend to walk towards the top side of the map. Placing mushrooms in the bottom side puts them just out of range of vision.

Why is Teemo hated?
Teemo is notably the most hated champion in League of Legends. Teemo is often associated with toxic players and trolls. As an opponent, Teemo is hard to counter.
