Attrition-and-map build: Teemo does not win because he has a clean all-in, but because he imposes a permanent tax on enemy movement. The premium build reinforces that identity of intelligent harassment, traps that close the map, and repeated small trades that make every objective harder to contest.
Three builds, one right answer per draft. The advisor reads the five enemies (and your allies) and names who triggers what — the same rule as the Draft MVP sheet and Ask Nexus.
Best Teemo build (Baron Lane): Liandry's Torment › Nashor's Tooth › Rabadon's Deathcap › Riftmaker › Void Staff, boots Boots of Mana, keystone Fleet Footwork. Three variants and when to pick each are below.
Standard build maximizing damage output. Use on neutral matchups or when ahead.
15,300 total cost
Nothing dominates on the other side: the standard build maximizes your damage.
Open this draft in the tool →Magic penetration build targeting enemy resistances. Pick this if the enemy stacks magic resist.
15,300 total costDefensive build adding survivability. Pick this against high enemy damage or when behind.
14,600 total cost -700g
Scores out of 10: where this champion sits against the whole roster, phase by phase. The strip shows its own power ramp level by level — it does not compare across champions.
Your hardest matchups in this role, and the item from your situational list that answers each one.

Same advisor in the Draft (the MVP sheet applies it to your real draft) and in Ask Nexus, which explains the choice. On counters pages: the variant to take against each counter-pick.
