i consider myslef a teemo main along with a few other champs, I usually start off every game with dorans shield, pot and warding trinket. I always play him mid lane.

dorans shield is the best starting item imo as it gives the most health, sustain and blocks auto damage and kinda takes away his squishyness which is his biggest problem. then i proceed to rush haunting guise into sorc shoes into liandries for the early-mid game penetration. then i go voidstaff as these 3 pen items drasticaly increase shrooms damage. its awfully funny watching a tank run into a shrrom and lose half health to 3/4 health off 1 shrrom. these 3 items usually prevents enemies from wanting to enter jungle and from that point on the jungle is pretty much urs. when i get these items i usually shroom the areas leading to baron pit to make it alot easier to take baron as if they want to contest they have to walk through a minefield of liandries/penetration damage. after those 3 items, i go for dcap into lichbane for the additional damage. I finish off with nashors tooth for cdr and atack speed and the nice passive. as long as im not midlaning against like an annie, i do pretty well. about 80% of games i end up carrying duo to map control and high damage output from this build. about 50% of my games i have super carried with scores like 26/5/12, 31/10/15 and so on. this build also makes it easy to defend ur base if u lose a teamfight and the enemy is pushing. i have held off many 4-5 man pushes by myself with a few well placed shrroms and smart poking.

the runes i run are: magic pen reds, armor yellows, mr blues and ap quints. I folow the standard 21/9/0 masteries picking up the ap/ attack speed masteries along with the hp from the defense tree.

p.s. sry for this wall of text, but teemo gameplay is really strategic so it takes lots of space ^_^

if u lane against a hard enemy, just farm well and avoid feeding, i have done this many times(fkin annie) once u get liandres and ur pen items, u gain map control and that is really important in this game. ur duty as teemo is to ensure free barons for ur team all day long. especially with the removal of oracles :)
