Heimerdinger, needs some love yes or no?

So, I used to play Heim a bit a few seasons back and found him enjoyable, but lost interest and went on focusing on other champions.

I know the old Heim from years ago was very "annoying" to lane against because of how strong his pushing power was, but now it seems almost the complete opposite.

  1. How many champions can hit turrets without the turrets even being in range ot hit back? Annie literally can ayti attacj the turrets and they can't do anything to her. Then there's Lux, Syndra, Brand, all able to easily take down his turrets with no fear of them hitting them.

  2. Turrets auto-target Heim's turrets if you place them within range, so you can't use them really push against enemy turrets.

  3. Syndra...oh boy, she utterly destroys him. Not only does she outrange everything with her abilities but she can simply pick up his turrets (even his ult turret) and plop them away, throw them into her own turret range, or simply out of lane. There is ZERO ways to "counterplay" syndra with him.

It just feels like to me HEim iiiis at the low end of ap characters at the moment and a shell of what he used to be.

Is he planed to get some kind of rework of some love in the future?

Hell no..... not a buff at least. He's one of the highest winrate and can go top, mid or even support.

The problem is he crushes low elo because nobody knows shit about countering him. In high elo he is redundant and never played because he is worthless. Buffing him would just attract crybabies

That does not matter. Take for example, Fizz. If played in an elo below diamond or gold, his ban ratio is around 90% from first hand experience. And to top that off, the reasoning behind not nerfing the champ is because "He has extremely high mana issues, and no sustain." After he 100-0 you without items, you are stuck wondering why this should even matter.

Heimerdinger is in a very okay spot right now, he can be toxic to lane against but not enough to make it unbearable. If you really want to screw heimer over, just play Nasus top against him. Or mid, hell you know how many mid and top laners are swapping lanes because of all of these buffs and nerfs?

Note: Heimer is in a very okay spot right now, other champions seriously need to be looked at and focused on, not this guy.
