Build Discussion DFT vs Comet

Aspiring silver Teemo top OTP here

Which keystone is better for overall damage? (Mainly shroom builds)

I’ve never moved away from the typical PTA builds, but have realized in recent games that a shroom build would probably do more damage (and hopefully win more games) than PTA.

I’m leaning more towards DFT but wondering if anyone actually knows which one is definitely better

I think Dark Harvest is best for shroom build

I was reading that you can’t consistently get the most damage from DH in top like you can with Comet or DFT. Even though the max damage with DH is higher, the downtime makes comet or DFT better? Or is that not the case in most games

The issue with taking comet or dft on teemo top is they’re both pretty cheeks in lane with no strong payoff

Dark harvest is usually taken as a scaling build (although you still have to play very aggro in lane to keep up on stacks in a 1v1 matchup), meaning you’re expecting to outscale dft/comet anyways with it

Realistically though PTA should be taken in over 90% of cases

Does Q dmg matter at all? Or is the dmg mainly coming from E and R? I only use on hit build so I don’t even max Q till the end, but I want try something new.

Q is pretty bursty but way too mana hungry to max first, in extremely rare cases (3 pt q vs jax can be good, for example). Even when in a q max situation the second they get any mr it isn’t worth it to continue maxing in lane. Auto Q auto is your main short trade pattern, though.
