He is a strong pushing champ, I understand that. But it should not be so strong starting from level 1. He can permanently push the wave into tower and it doesn't require that much mana. This means that without jungle pressure he basically wins the lane by default. Very little skill involved, with so much zone control, landing his skillshots are just the "cherry on top".

I have played other strong waveclear champs, such as Malzahar, Zyra, Anivia, Corki, etc. None of them can do the AFK push game as good as Heimer.

I played a game as Zyra mid against Heimer, and in the 20 minutes before they took our nexus, I barely felt like I got to play the game at all. I wavecleared to the best of my ability, bought extra mana items. But I was just absolutely helpless. And this is with me playing a ranged, high-waveclear champ. I imagine it's way worse for a melee.

That's the problem. You played a high waceclear champ against an even higher waveclear champ that can easily destroy your waveclear, rather than playing someone that could disrupt him. Play syndra, play yasuo, play veigar, play someone that can punish him for placing turrets. Turret cd early is long, if you can use his turrets against him or just easily destroy them, you can shut down a major part of his kit.

I'm pretty sure zyra is probably one of the worst champions you could have picked into him honestly, a single W or a single turret shot iirc destroys your plants, leaving you basically useless.
