So... you disabled Teemo and Karthus in OFA...

Why not Heimerdinger? You think Teemo promotes negative gameplay? TRY 15 TURRETS IN ONE LANE, PREVENTING THE ENEMY TEAM FROM EVEN TRYING TO ENGAGE A FIGHT! NOT TO MENTION THAT EVEN TWO HEIMERDINGERS CAN CHEW THROUGH TURRETS LIKE THEY'RE MADE OF PAPER! Teemo can stop a fight in its tracks. Heimer can make sure that fight doesn't even start. And that's not counting the stun, poke, or ult.

Yeah... Heimer's pretty much permabanned in OFA, until Riot decides to disable him.

Comment below, if you want Riot to disable Heimer for the rest of OFA's duration.

I think they shouldn't disable any champions from gamemodes like OFA and URF, let people have fun and if you forget to ban certain champions? WHOOPS thats on you. Just my 2 cents on the topic.

Devack The HolyOct 20, 20155 votes

Yeah... But then, would you want Karthus, Teemo, Heimerdinger, and Lux every single game, or not get a game at all because people keep dodging to try to get their "OP" picks?

I say disable the ones that prove to be a problem, which frees up the rest of the roster to be either banned or picked, and allow us to actually enjoy the mode.

I wouldn't mind playing against 5 Karthus or 5 Lux every game. Karthus takes too long to get online and doesn't kill towers and most of the picks I've been going for can beat Lux. Though I wouldn't mind them banning out all the high frequency picks just so I don't have another Lux vs Lux game

Exactly. My OFA Bard shits on all of those

It's kinda hard to 'let people have fun' when all they want to play are champions that kill any fun in said game mode.

Nah. Lux is the real cancer of OFA

Honestly they really need to implement 5 bans. There are a lot of toxic picks in OFA especially in ARAM if you play customs like I have.

I've never actually seen x5 heimer win even though its dreadfully boring to play against.

Endured against it as Sion Gangplank Yasuo Veigar

I have been the victim of five Heimers... It's horrible to go against, especially when the system coughs up the troll Tryndamere pick...

ChaosThiefOct 21, 20151 votes

Rengar is also pretty bad. You know what's pure cancer though?

Heimerdinger vs Heimerdinger.

And then the guy who picked him starts trying to surrender after "we were losing" when we clearly didn't want heimerdinger.

I played but one game against Heimer, and by happenstance we picked a champion who isn't especially good in 1 4 All but was damn good against Heimerdinger.

Wanna siege?

Ezreal Alright.

iamleburkOct 21, 20152 votes

You think Trynd is bad? Try fiddlesticks. I picked it one time to troll (the guy banned out the character i said i was going to pick to troll me) and it was absolute shit.

LOL

how was that "pushing" , "sieging" , and "taking turrets"

We got like 10 dragons but it didnt matter much lol

The only solution to fighting Heimerdinger I found was playing Yorick in One for All.

The laning phase was really boring and lasted about 25 minutes and both side had 3 kills but when teamfights happened I think our ghouls were able to draw aggro from the turrets and due to our AoE ghouls we were able to kill a handful of their turrets really fast. Though to be honest this is just my guess as to how we won teamfights when we were in the middle of 10 Heimer turrets and 5 ult'ed Heimer turrets.

That or just play Syndra and throw all of Heimer's turrets into your tower.

Devack The HolyOct 20, 20151 votes

Yeah... and the 1-in-5 chance of getting Yorick or Syndra ensures that will happen.

I played a Howling Abyss map. 5 of us Kennen against 5 Heimers. We Kennens actually won.

SaiannaOct 21, 20151 votes

I once played Teemo vs Teemo teams on Howling Abyss.

This game lasted 45+ minutes. Seriously. Noone dared to move even an inch towards enemy side.

And you guys know what? It was the most exhausting weird yet AWESOME OFA I ever played!

Fucking Crushed a Heimer Team in OFA. It was easy With Mundo.

MegaManYYZOct 21, 20151 votes

Heimer teams can get crushed by Lux teams and probably numerous other teams

Played a Hecarim vs Heimerdinger game, the Heimers got stomped.

They disabled Teemo and Karthus under the pretense that they promoted negative gameplay. I'm sorry, Riot, but if you're going to go around and deem whether or not something doesn't promote "healthy" gameplay, by that logic, you should be compelled to look at a lot of OFA Teams. Either you shouldn't disable any champs at all for this mode, or you should take a deep look at every "unhealthy" OFA team if claim to caring about it. Am I to take it to mean that you don't see a team of Zilean's or Lux's as unhealthy?
