Malady, madreds and nashor tooth aren't bad items but you shouldn't rush these early game. There are better ways to utilize teemo early and mid game. At the beginning you should play Teemo as a semi-support providing map awareness to your team. Max your cooldown reduction with masteries, ionian boots and kindlegem (thats the cheapest way). If no one needs blue buff, you don't have to max cdr. Then build Haunting Guise for magic pen. Now you just have to shroom the map: shroom dragon, shroom jungle, shroom the river, shroom around lanes and on lanes, shroom turrets enemies are going to destroy. Next item you should buy are Madred's Razors because you need to farm more and better avoid farming with shrooms. Next item is Wit's End (you should have null magic mantle in your inventory already so just upgrade). Your Q, your E, your R and your wits end benefit from magic pen so as you can see, m pen runes + haunting guise are good things. And dont forget that madreds bloodrazor will benefit from m pen and you are going to buy it as late game item.

If they are stacking magic resist, sell Haunting Guise and buy Void staff. You can sell your kindlegem and Ionian boots to buy other CDR items like Soul Shroud. Ionian boots can be replaced with mercs. Now your build is, for example: Mercs, soul shroud, wits end, void staff, madred's razors and kindlegem/wards in sixth slot. Now upgrade your madreds razor into madreds bloodrazor because NOW, in late game, enemies have enough HP and you have enough magic penetration.

What might surprise some people, sometimes I play this way with teleport/revive. It's not that effective in solo q because people there are really closed minded.
