Enemy Turrets Prioritize Heimerdinger's Turrets

  1. Play Heimerdinger.
  2. R--->Q and place it under enemy turret.
  3. Tower dive the enemy champion.
  4. The enemy turret will not switch targets to you until it has killed your ulted turret.

Most annoying game I ever played last night. :l

Specifically the ult turret, not regular ones?

Ult turret will survive for a long time, regular will get oneshot most likely meaning you get targeted.

Just want to clarify, so we can be sure. If in fact this happens only with the ult turret, then that helps narrow down the cause of the problem for Riot.

I think because it counts as a spell for Heim, yet it is an entity it works similar to Malz space AIDS.

I imagine the same thing would happen with regular turrets if they had more health. Turrets one shot them, though, and they will then switch targets properly.

Ult turret can take several shots, however, and your turret will prioritize killing it once it has been targeted instead of properly switching to Heimerdinger when he does damage.

Try having a champion other than Heimerdinger attempt to take aggro after his ult turret is targeted. It's possible that the ult turret is treated as Heimerdinger himself for some reason.

Would need to do more testing to be sure but I don't believe their Jungler was taking aggro off the Heimerdinger turret either.
