Heimerdinger balance plz

With his rework he become one of the most annoying champions to lane, or even play against. His support role is an absurdity, and his mid/top lane is just crazy. I propose a couple of changes to him, that I feel would make him a bit more balanced.
For 1, the second he is out of range of his turrets, they need to deactivate. I can't say how many times I've seen a heimy, just to have him flash over wall and run, but his turrets are still rocking my face. This leads me to my 2nd proposition. ONCE HEIMERDINGER IS DEAD, HIS TURRETS NEED TO DEACTIVATE IMMEDIATELY! When Zyra dies, her plants die. Yea she has her passive, but that shit's easier to dodge, and if you lived with 20 hp after fighting Zyra, you have a chance to escape. With heimy, his turrets will own you.
That's all I can really say about Heimerdinger. He's annoying enough with his turrets, please do something about them when he's out of range, or dead.

I went against a gangplank and he ulted my turrets and shot me to bits once Dongers not bad, from my experience is that you just need to fight his turrets first then him If u got range poke, go for his turrets

You describe a flash dependent situation and label it as champ being OP. Instead this means your picks and communication were poor as a team. If a Heim wants to flash wall, then NEXT time you should bait his flash. When he goes over, there should be someone waiting on the other side.

To make a Heim quit if he's in some other lane, you want like a Smite Nunu or Smite Karthus or such.
