Struggling a lot with Heimerdinger mid.

TL:DR Stuck here, need some tips to deal with his wall of turrets early game.

He is literally the only champ that I have zero idea what to do with mid. The biggest issue is from 1-8 or so. He sets up his turrets mid and just owns the lane and is so fed on minions by mid game that he becomes a menace. I either have to waste a ton of mana to poke down his turrets - which are insanely mana efficient for him, or let him free farm while trying to remain even remotely close in farm myself. Meanwhile getting poked down by the turrets.

Syndra is fine and all but she's a gimmicky answer to Heimer. I usually go Ziggs or Lux since they have the range to at least keep up in farm. But I use so much mana just to farm that I end up way behind or having to back often.

If you don't have a counter camp your lane, keep your turret up long as possible, and hope top and bot are doing something good. It can be really wasteful to gank mid Heimer, so best to just be patient and get the cs that you can.

Malzahar makes fun of Heimer, since his E bounces off his turrets and gives you mana back + you out range him . Karthus also just goes, ohh look, more farm 4 me.

AP Nunu for mid. Munch the turrets, snowball Heimy. Snowball turrets, munch turrets, snowball Heimy. It really is that simple.

Zed is fun since he has long range poke... also he uses energy so you can quickly re-up for more pokes...once you hit 6 you can dive his arse with ult and do you boo boo then tp back to original spot and let proc do the work

You either need the right champ, or pre 6 ganks. Heim will likely end up pushed every time he is in lane. Let him come to your tower, and hope you have a half decent jungle.

Syndra PICK UP HIS TURRETS AND THROW EM AT HIS FACE

or just outfarm him. It really isnt that hard since his turrets miss a lot of cs and make it hard for him to cs.
