I think I'm going to start playing APs with CC, I'm beginning to think Vlad isn't that good anymore since you can't really... gank with him.
Morgana, Ryze? Both strong and have decent cc, and morg is basically the safest mid.

Yeah, I'm using Ahri, Ryze, Swain, and Kennen. Morgana is always banned so I'm not bothering until the Rammus/Amumu effect happens.

Today I realized two things, one I like Irelia a lot, and two vlad is unbeatable in lane because I am never lucky enough to be playing his counter in blind pick.

Why do people pick Teemo when the team needs an AD carry? o.o

He can be considered one but a little different (at least in my opinion). I feel it's similar to urgot where urgot is an AD carry, but not a standard one (e.g. ashe, MF, sivir, tristana, ezreal, kogmaw, graves, etc).
The most optimal way to build him is to go hybrid and split push lanes all day. If you go with the very loose/vague definition of AD carry of "A squishy ranged attacker", then it fits. He can be useful in team fights with good positioning though where he can pick people off. It won't be as strong as some ADs like graves/vayne, but his poison closes the gap somewhat.

Yes, but Urgot does a lot of physical damage. Teemo is mostly magic damage and all he has going for him bot is Blinding Shot. You're not going to CARRY a game with Teemo, so he isn't an AD CARRY.

So I decided to solo queue normal games instead of playing with my level 30 friends.
First game I wanted to go pantheon top, said so in queue, no objections. In game? Irelia rage. Ok fine, she can go top. Maokai (sp?) jungle: dies on first gank because he sucks. "OGM SO UNFAIR wtp." So he started feeding.
I'm in bot lane with an ezreal. 10 minutes in? He has 4 cs & 5 deaths nbd. Oh yeah, Maokai was 0/7? and afk in fountain for the rest of the game.
"UGH THEY HAVE FULL RUNE PAGE SOOO UNFAIR I CAN'T DO ANYTHING"
"wtp OP" (when attempting to 3 v 1 against a fed graves and veigar)
And this was only 15 minutes in.
Second game, I get my pantheon top against a Darius. Kited him allllll day. He just stood still and took it. Bot lane feeds graves, they rage, "gg /ff"
Come on.

I always seem to do really well or really badly. There's rarely an in-between.
I just noticed my lolstatistics sig is broken, saying I have no losses...

A good teemo can pick people off though. His AA is pretty strong combined with atk speed + poison dart. All those times an enemy gets away with 100~ hp, teemo kills them.
In lower elo games he can carry but he doesn't have that much carry potential in higher elo.

Definitely a "LULWUT?!" moment.
IMO, even if he's not convicted, his life is basically over. CC scams are a very serious crime; the stigma attached will probably prevent him from being part of any pro gaming team in the future, guilty or not. If anything, M5 might have to boot him because they may not want to associate with someone that is accused of committing a serious crime.

Every champion can play ad carry. Specific champions are just better at it then others. Teemo is definitely not one of the worst ad carries. He remains with the utility on his MS/stealth/shrooms/blind to disable one off tank. His poison as a bit of a steroid. It might not be optimal, but not being able to carry is way too much of an underestimation. He's an excellent last hitter with his poison and he can bully most bottom lanes with his vision on his mushrooms and his blind+poison to outduel the ad carry. For example he wrecks Vayne.

I just got cockblocked out of a Pentakill by my team's Janna.
I got off the perfect Death Lotus on the entire enemy team with all their CC down and she Monsoon'd every single out of them out of it. I still got a quadra, but without Janna the Savior it would have been my most glorious pentakill ever. The best part? She had no fucking idea I was even using my ultimate. Just sees 5 guys in a cluster and decides she needs to flash/ult them.
Some Talon on the other team accused me of hacking because of Kat's cooldown refresh on her passive. I laughed heartily. I thought people at my level knew about these sorts of things >:
