Heimerdinger's cooldown reduction.

Bergk··278 votes·9,449 views

Heimerdinger is a genius, he should be able to have the mental capacity to have a potential 2% maximum cool-down reduction beyond any other champion. Having 42% CDR wouldn't make him overpowered, but it would prove his mental superiority. Heimerdinger Heimerdinger Heimerdinger Source: "Aha, 42, I knew it! Now - er, what was the question again?" "42... there's just something about that number."

hahaha, those two lines are references to The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy but it would be a great Easter egg to actually make it apart of donger's kit and make him able to have 42% CDR. lol

lol I know. 42 is the Answer to the Ultimate Question of Life, the Universe and Everything. So why shouldn't it be the answer to the Donger's superiority!? XD

It would kind of work too bc you'd have to rune specifically for the 2% or you'd have to over pay for cdr in order to get it. Limiting heimer players runes or making them waste gold on the 3% cdr over the cap minimum would probably off set the power of 2% cdr. Then again, players would probably just adjust masteries or something stupid in order to get it and not spend much so maybe it doesn't work at all.

Or, you just got it from your masteries because you tend to have overlap overcharged CDR anyway if you have a full 21 in offense (Remember, that last 5% CDR is worth more value than that first 10% is due to how CDR scales as you get more of it).

This is the buff he needs after his core item item 3091 attack speed was changed to 50% from 42%.

Just buy a bunch of longswords to make your attacks hit harder.

So Viktor should have like 95% CDR?

heimerdinger's the joke.

I agree. And the amount of downvotes Viktor got just shows how blinded people are and how none of them realize how smart Viktor really is.

Scrimshäw1 votes

Also the fact that Heimerdinger's taunt towards Viktor is telling Viktor to be a genius to show off, while all Viktor wants is to share his technology with the world, and doesn't care about the glory and riches that come with being a famous inventor.

On the flip side, I think he got the joke and you didn't ;)

You just whooshed yourself, bud.

Solis Deus4 votes

I think the people who didn't get the joke still upvoted your comment.

Why 95 is there something about that in his lore?

T RexHasTinyArms4 votes

More importantly is there something about that in the victor equivalent of hitchhiker's guide?

Imagine how many Viktor ults would be on the map at once.

  1. Because you can't recast it if one instance of the ult is already up. Look at - Urf Annie, Urf Victor, Urf Shaco, and Live Mord.

I hate heimer. But this is funny. 2% higher CDR wouldn't really hurt anything. Just throw it on his passive and call it good.

But 42 would make him insanely overpowered. You can't win a champion that has the answer to life, the universe and everything when all you can do is cool tricks with wind walls.

It's fine as long as he doesn't know the question.

But if he does know the question, Summoner's Rift will be destroyed!

watch his winrate drops because idiots are buying more cdr items and wasting 8-18 cdr

Watch Vayne survive with 1 hp from leona cause of sunglasses

Gorgannan9 votes

Or Just take 2% in masteries, and 40% form items.

Pikmints2 votes

Ah, but what masteries would be worth dropping in exchange for that 2%?

Something like this?

Hidden passive: Everything Heimerdinger builds (buys) has 42% of something...

Is his needlessly large rod 42% larger?

Considering Yordles are like 3 feet tall at most? Sure, why not?

Baedaf4 votes

42 inches tall, to be exact (with that brain anyways)

Helmight7 votes

I love this. Just slap 2% free CDR onto Heimer's passive and let him exceed the CDR cap by the same amount. It'd be perfect.

Hugify6 votes

60%winrate heimer Inbound confirmed

SKOBODO6 votes

If so, he should get 2% CDR from R ranks or something to make builds smoother.

Bergk2 votes

nah, just put 2 points in the "Sorcery" mastery and then buy 40%. Or just use a couple CDR runes.

Having one special rune page just for Heimerdinger would be annoying. You'd usually spend 4 points in Sorcery for 5% CDR on mages anyway. Just give him 2% CDR for free (and adjust his stats to compensate, if need be).

Assuming they want to do this at all. I'm not sure it's worth breaking the rule of 40% CDR for a joke.

When he backs, he could say, "So long, and thanks for all the fish!"

not a bad idea at all

I'm honestly fine with this, especially bc cooldown reduction isn't the absolute greatest stat on him, on top as the fact this is funny af. +1

Dank meme.

Jolyne Cujoh2 votes

This would be amazing, I'm imagining those two joke lines changing once he hits 42% CDR too, or maybe thats too much to ask for
