Teemo debuted as one of the original champions in Riot Games' League of Legends, which launched in 2009, and quickly became one of its most recognisable mascots. The cheerful scout is known for his high pitched voice lines, his blowgun, and his Noxious Trap mushrooms that can kill enemies long after he has left the lane. That mix of cute design and infuriating gameplay turned Teemo into a lasting meme in the community, and short clips of his song are still shared in edits, montages and soundboards whenever a sneaky Teemo play appears online.
