I know no one cares about the Heimski, but he really needs some love

Heimerdinger

This isn't news, Heimski sucks. Just tried him mid a few times and he doesn't do anything well. Hi s push is really not that great against most mid match ups, which is what I thought was supposed to be his 'thing'. He's pretty squishy and it feels like you have to go Deathcap ASAP if you want to do any real damage, which just makes you too squishy to even survive a skirmish.

Overall, no one plays him, no one really cares, but it'd be interesting to see what Heimski could look like with a buff somewhere.

He's a victim of a toxic kit. He's super annoying to play against but is bad at the same time. If they give him any buffs he's gonna be OP, but they've nerfed him to the point where he's underpowered and it's still annoying to play against him.

Just bad character design IMO. Cool concept, bad in practice.

Considering you played Heimerdinger as a new champion for you, I can already tell that you are not experienced with his matchups. He is not a simple champion to start from , its learning curve its pretty impressive, because if you see a Heimer main you can see that he abuses every single part of him, pretty much Heimer being an "anti-melee assasin".

Items like item 3157 make him the true power, abusing ganks in his favor Most mages are squishy , but you can still build defensive items like item 3001 which still increases his dmg by a bit.

  • he gets MS from walking around his turrets making easier to dodge skill shots and you can even bodyblock with turret.

Weird to hear you guys defending him... But it's pretty clear he sucks and will not carry a game as a mid laner, especially against most champs that get played today. He needs a buff of sorts, and it doesn't have to be buffing his turrets, which are underwhelming as pushing tools.

The problem is he needs toooo much stuff to be good. He needs a lot of health, he needs a lot of mana, he needs a lot of AP, he needs a lot of CDR, and he needs MPEN, and he needs Zhonyas. He simply just needs too many more stats to be truly effective. Overall, he just feels bad to play. I would be surprised if there were any Heimski mains out there. Can't imagine why someone would choose him as either a good OR fun champ to play.
