Zaahen vs Teemo Counter Pick

Blinding Dart accounts for this figure by itself. Zaahen deals his damage through auto attacks: The Darkin Glaive alters his next attack, and Cultivation of War builds stacks from attacks and abilities that connect, so a blind shuts all of it off while it lasts. Across more than 750 games on patch 16.13.1, he wins 42.9% of the time.

• Range: 500 against 175, which lets Teemo farm and poke from beyond anything Zaahen can punish without spending Aureate Rush.
• Damage type: mixed, with physical attacks paired with the magic damage over time of Toxic Shot, so no single defensive stat covers the whole trade.
• Escape: Move Quick provides passive move speed until a champion or turret strikes Teemo, along with an active sprint. His 330 base speed trails Zaahen’s 345 only on paper.

Teemo is fragile in practice: 615 health and 24 armor at level 1, then 2,383 health with 100.5 armor at level 18. A single landed Dreaded Return should decide the exchange, backed by 63 attack damage and glaive healing. The catch is that he arrives with abilities still ready. Noxious Trap covers approach routes, and Guerrilla Warfare keeps a stationary Teemo hidden, so brush becomes a threat instead of cover. Ward control matters more in this fight than any item choice.
