What People have to understand about heimer nerf

Plus it's only cutting the flat damage on the beam, not the 70% AP ratio on the beam, not the other shots, not the burn from Liandry's, not the slow from Rylai's...Just halving the way too high flat damage on the beam.

Except Heimer's didn't go tank very often and it is still a joke build w. him ever since zzrot-banner got nerfed w. his health regen?

People should understand this is not designed to make Heimer less viable. It's to make him an actual AP carry again. If you want to rework Heimer to be a top lane bruiser/pusher like Illaoi, that's a whole different issue. Right now that's not how he is positioned, so it's not like Heimer was OP, just unhealthy.

This nerf is geared towards making Heimer have to build damage to do damage. Same thing with Ekko and Fizz. The identity of the champ was getting skewed.

Like take a ap carry top, build tank items, play a non-interactive lane, wreck towers very easily, and still be a lane bully who does so much damage you have to be VERY careful when you gank him for pushing constantly.

If you build Heimer AP now he will still wreck towers and do damage, you just will die more easily when overextending cuz you can't build tank items. No more cake and eat it too Heims.
