ap teemo is a bad idea just because he doesn't have enough of a kit for it and a little mr shuts him out way too easy. on hit is not actually what he is best at, but bruiser teemo is. it uses a lot of on hit items but you also buy some damage mitigation and works great for top lane. Ad teemo can be good, but the issue is his range and kit. his lane is meant for poking to keep opponents off of farm but when other carrys have aoe damage abilities to poke back he can struggle. Vayne and Twitch suffer from this same issue. His blind is exceedingly useful when going 1v1 against a carry but many of them will just pull back using there escape and then reengage while it is on cd. The issue here is that with no real damage ability(e wont do much if AD since you usually dont max it first when ad) they then often out range him and out damage him. His base stats are also not the best which poses other lane issues. Viable... YES... good not really. AD teemo is in the same boat as AP Yi. Great for pubstomping or at low level, but it doesn't take a genius to easy counter him and feed off of him all day long.
