Statistical Matchup Analysis

With 3.7% popularity, Teemo constantly encounters meta-dominant Ambessa (4.7%, 10th place out of 62 Top champions). Understanding how to play against this popular champion becomes essential for consistent Teemo performance in the current patch. Meta strength confirmed: Teemo's superior tier rating (A vs B) translates into a solid 53.9% matchup win rate. This performance explains why Teemo ranks 26th in win rate among Top champions. Optimize for consistency: Dark Harvest paired with Cheap Shot (64.4% win rate, 6.2% popularity) provides the stats you need, while the item sequence Nashor's Tooth > Liandry's Torment > Shadowflame with Sorcerer's Shoes delivers 70%+ win rate against Ambessa.

Lane dominance: Teemo not only wins the matchup but crushes CS (7.11/min vs 6.89 for Ambessa). This 0.22 CS/min advantage generates significant gold leads that compound your already favorable position. Complete superiority: Teemo dominates both win rate (53.9%) and damage output (963 vs 844/min, 2nd among Top). The 119 damage/min difference creates massive snowball potential. Intriguing anomaly: Teemo wins the matchup (53.9%) despite a lower KDA (1.70 vs 1.90). This suggests you win through macro influence and clutch plays in key moments rather than consistent individual performance.

How to Beat Ambessa as Teemo (Top)

The Teemo versus Ambessa matchup in the top lane is favorable with proper positioning. Use your statistical advantage and prevent the opponent from realizing their potential.

The magic damage that Teemo deals remains relevant in the late game. Look for opportunities to initiate or counter-initiate. Ambessa deals mainly physical damage (92.52%), additional items against this damage type may be required against snowballing or aggressive play.

An important advantage of Teemo is higher farming statistics (ranked 15th among role champions) (versus 24th for Ambessa), which provides a stable gold advantage in extended games and allows faster access to key items. Meanwhile, their higher KDA (1.9 versus 1.7) suggests they participate more effectively in team fights.

Key aspects of the Teemo Top versus Ambessa Top matchup

Despite the statistical advantage in the matchup, overconfidence can be the main mistake. It is important for the Teemo player to maintain constant pressure on Ambessa, not allowing the opponent to safely scale up, and actively use the advantage gained to help their team.
