Overview[]
Teleport is a 'targeted' summoner spell. It is used to quickly travel from a current location to a friendly turret or minion anywhere on the map. It is not stopped like Recall upon damage, but it still can be stopped with crowd control abilities such as stuns, roots and silences.
Strategy[]
Teleport is great for ganking if the enemy commits to a fight and is around friendly minions or turrets. Teleport is also used to quickly switch lanes to defend an unguarded tower. The most common use for Teleport in the late game is to allow a champion to splitpush a lane separately from the rest of the team and be able to teleport to regroup in case of a fight. 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 towers and inhibitors as possible.
Notes[]
- A teleport can also be canceled by the caster itself by clicking on the spell again, but doing so will put the spell on a 180 seconds cooldown rather than the full 300 seconds.
- Teleport renders the targeted minion invulnerable for the duration of the teleport (when targeting a minion). It is possible to use teleport on a minion targeted by an enemy tower when teleporting to assist a push, preventing tower damage for those 4 seconds.
- Teleport particle can be seen through the fog of war and any stealthed objects targeted by the spell will be revealed for the spell duration.
- When using teleport on an allied tower, the tower does not become invulnerable. Also, if the tower is destroyed as you are channeling, the spell will be canceled and placed on its full 300 second cooldown.
- While standing at an end of a wall or other standing out part of terrain, using Teleport slightly increases vision radius just around the corners in the fog of war.
Trivia[]
Teleport can be used on any friendly minion or turret. Additionally, it can be used on a number of allied structures and creatures. These include:
- Wards like Sight Ward and Vision Ward and this will now reveal the ward to enemies for a few seconds.
- Flags like
Jarvan IV's Demacian Standard.
- Destructible traps like
Shaco's Jack In The Box and
Teemo's Noxious Trap.
- Pets like
Annie's Summon Tibbers,
Heimerdinger's H-28G Evolution Turret,
Malzahar's Voidling,
Yorick's Omen of War, Omen of Pestilence and Omen of Famine.
However, Teleport does not work on:
- Indestructible traps like
Caitlyn's Yordle Snap Trap.
- Champion copies like
Mordekaiser's Children of the Grave and
Shaco's Hallucinate.
Patch History[]
We're following up with our top lane changes from 10.5 with an additional set of changes for Death's Dance and Teleport. This combination should continue reinforcing our initial goals of helping top laners that are coming out of laning phase build carry items to be a threat throughout the game. The Teleport change should also shift some of its power as an excellent lane sustain tool to a more late-game splitting-and-flanking tool.

v8.23
Channel time reduced but can no longer be canceled.
Channeling Teleport is often enough to deter enemies from an aggressive push or dive, even if you have no intention of following through. The mind game is interesting, but should be accompanied by a higher commitment. Laners can still use Teleport to shut down cross-map plays elsewhere, but now they'll sacrifice more tempo in their own lane to do so. Also, if you pick a bad Teleport, there's no going back so you're probably gonna die. Click carefully.
v8.14
Cooldown increased.
Teleport has emerged as a dominant summoner spell in most lanes. This is particularly problematic bot lane, where it's often taken on champions who simply wish to avoid conflict in the laning phase and scale into the late game. For now, we're increasing the cooldown to give combat summoners a longer window in which to punish Teleport users.
Usability improvements.
Bugfixed.
v6.13
Channel time increased. Clarity improvements for both allies and opponents.
For the power an extra champ brings to a fight, Teleport plays are generally too successful. Widening the window for enemy reaction means Teleports will more frequently fail to create advantages if teams don’t coordinate properly. At the same time, well-executed Teleport plays still deserve to be rewarded, so we’re making it easier to tell exactly where your reinforcements will come in.
v5.22
Cooldown increased on turrets. Channel time increased.
Ah, Teleport. A summoner spell made contentious over a season's worth of scrutiny, TP simply didn't have the windows necessary to play around to make it anything short of amazing, even considering the aggressive or defensive options at your disposal. The ability to impact the map every 5 minutes isn't one to be taken lightly, and while we have other changes alongside this to disincentivize Teleport as your 'every game' choice (Rift Herald says hi), we're taking extra measures to ensure that the burden of making the most of your Teleports is even higher, and that the 'get-out-of-jail-free' card isn't as free as it seems.
- [NEW] Documentation! : You can now Teleport to wards by clicking on the minimap.
v4.10
We're generally happy with what the new Teleport changes are achieving, but it's a little too strong as a lane recovery ability. Particularly in competitive play we were seeing a lot of top laners constantly using Teleport as a way of stagnating the early lane rather than trying to set up for global map pressure.
- COOLDOWN: Cooldown when teleporting to towers now
200 seconds⇒ 240 seconds
v4.4
We like the offensive pressure that comes from taking Teleport, but its defensive use (ie: lane recovery or base protection) could use some love.
- "NEW" UTILITY: Teleporting to an allied turret reduces the cooldown of Teleport by 100 seconds (total 200 second cooldown. 300 seconds if Teleport is used on an object.).
- CANCELLATION PENALTY: Cancelling a Teleport in progress reduces the cooldown of Teleport to 150 seconds ⇒ 200 seconds

- Cancel delay increase to 1 second from 0.5
