Teleport

Teleport is a unit-targeted summoner spell that blinks your champion to the target allied unit after a few seconds of channeling.

Notes

• Teleport has no cast time.
• Teleport is disabled while grounded, rooted, or unable to cast.
  • Nearsight will prevent the caster from using Teleport globally.
• The user may select their target for Teleport via the minimap.
• Teleport renders a targeted minion completely invulnerable (even to the Nexus Obelisk) and unable to act.
  • It is possible to use Teleport on a minion targeted by an enemy turret when teleporting to assist a push, preventing turret damage from occurring for about 4 seconds.
  • While champions could use displacing abilities to move the targeted minion, the teleporting champion will still arrive at their intended position.
• Teleporting to a ward or stealthed trap reveals it (except if it's in a Brush and no enemies are inside the brush, the visual effects of the Teleport are still visible in this case) during the channel but it cannot be destroyed.
• Teleport is canceled if a targeted turret is destroyed during the channel.
• While standing at the end of a wall or other standing out part of terrain, using Teleport slightly increases sight radius just around the corners in the fog of war.
• Teleport will not cancel if a targeted ward or trap expires during the channel.
• The teleporting champion will always appear on the side of the object that is facing own nexus. Prior to V6.13, when a turret was targeted, a random location around it was chosen.^[1].
• Teleport does not cancel the user's current movement or attack order, which the champion will continue pursuing after the channel ends, unless a new one is given.
• Successfully completing the channel will destroy any targeted missiles inbound that would otherwise follow the user to the new location.
• Teleport's tooltip does not factor in Ionian Boots of Lucidity's Summoner spell cooldown reduction when displaying its cooldown.*
  • The tooltip does factor in other modifiers from Cosmic Insight and the game mode (e.g. Howling Abyss aura).
  • The resulting cooldown after the channel is completed or interrupted is properly affected by all Summoner spell cooldown reduction including Ionian Boots of Lucidity.

Strategy

• Teleport is mainly used to minimize laning downtime after Recalling or respawning, to prevent enemy laners from gaining an advantage.
• Teleport is great for ganking if the enemy commits to a fight and is around friendly minions, turrets, or wards.
• Teleport is also used to quickly switch lanes to defend an unguarded turret.
• Another use for Teleport is a backdoor maneuver where a high damage per second champion places a ward inside or near the enemy base and Teleports to that ward. From there that champion will attempt to bring down as many turrets and inhibitors as possible.
• It is also possible to use it to escape enemy champions that lack any way to interrupt channeled abilities, such as Vladimir, or with the interrupt on a long cooldown ultimate, such as Ashe, or requires an ally for the interrupt, such as Kalista. This is particularly useful for tanks without reliable escape mechanisms such as Dr. Mundo or Cho'Gath, since they are more likely to survive the channel.
• Teleport can be used to prolong or save the life of an allied Zac by making one of Zac's Bloblets invulnerable for the Teleport duration.

Targets

In addition to any friendly minion or turret, Teleport can be used on a number of allied constructs. These include, but are not limited to:

• Wards
• Jarvan IV's Demacian Standard
• Thresh's Dark Passage
• Zac's Bloblets
• Rek'Sai's tunnel entrances
• Illaoi's Tentacles
• Pets such as Annie's Tibbers, Heimerdinger's Turret, Malzahar's Voidlings, and Zyra's seeds.
• Destructible traps such as Shaco's Jack in the Box, Teemo's Noxious Trap, Nidalee's Bushwhack and Jhin's Captive Audience.

However, Teleport does not work on:

• Untargetable traps such as Caitlyn's Yordle Snap Trap.
• Clones such as Shaco's Hallucinate and LeBlanc's Mirror Image.
  • Exception: Fiddlesticks' Effigies

Trivia

• The first icon of Teleport was a purple variant of the first icon for Recall.
• Prior to being a summoner spell, the alpha items Ancient Pocket Watch and Scroll of Teleportation served the same function as Teleport.
  • Teleport was also a boot enchantment that shared the same name as this summoner spell during the Black Market Brawlers event. Details are shown in the section below.
