Teemo is actually quite viable in top lane. He's got very good ranged harass, as you max the poison first. In addition to the AP build, he can be built to be a bruiser; once you finish the Phage, you are very hard to deal with by certain melee champions due to your ability to kite extremely well.

It's about the matchups, as with every champion. Losing to some other top laner doesn't make Teemo a bad one ;)
