Heimerdinger nerf

Sohryu··4 votes·918 views

Ok lets be honest Heimerdinger has been nerfed and redesigned a bunch of times. However throughout these changes some smart ass in riot decided to allow him to place multiple turrets at once and replace each one as soon as it goes down, not only this but the turrets have the highest ap scaling, health, armor, magic resist, and attack speed of any type of champion created turret. Even Azir's turret can be taken down easier than just one of these. Not only this but the aoe provided by them makes the damage even higher. And there is also the fact that he can have all three turrets up along with his upgraded turret at the same time makes him pretty much ungankible without someone dying or him getting a double kill. However this is not the end of it his other skills(the rockets and grenade) are easy to land, cost practically no mana, and have low cool downs. This wouldn't be so bad if it didn't do a ton of damage. All of these skill allow him to practically be invincible, and the turrets are basically like champions allowing him to stop a whole team from taking an objective by him self.

All i ask of Riot is to lower the ap scaling of this champion

It's one of the easiest "skill" shots to land in the game, Stevie Wonder doesn't even miss it. There is a reason why Heimer since his remake has always had a ~55% win rate in Plat+ since his rework (after they fixed his infinite turret "bug").

Heimer has been broken as possible since his rework and every Bronze and mentally handicapped child wants to pretend otherwise.

Edit: Currently 54.61%, the lowest it's been since patch 5.3 an eternity ago - http://champion.gg/champion/Heimerdinger

So much fail, I don't know where to start....

Heimerdingers turrets die with 2 auto attacks or 1 spell, they have an insanely long cooldown as well (20s). Just compare it to Azir who spamms invinsible soldiers every 4s. They get outranged by the AA range of any common midlaner.

So for comparison we got invincible "mini turrets" (soldiers)for Azir and Heimer turrets which blow up in an instant.

His upgraded turret is his ultimate, you know. Try to gank a Syndra with 2 balls and an ultimate up and you will have a MUCH more frustrating experience than you ever could against Heimer. Plus: How bad does your laner have to be not to destroy Heimer's turrets? You can kill them with a 2s CD Karthus Q.....

As for AoE: That's only when they are charged. And when they are charged their lasers get a travel time and are easily dodgeable.

"His rockets are easily to land". Are you serious? It's a delayed skillshot which only does full damage at a very specific point in a certain distance. His grenade has one of the longest delays of all skillshots ingame.

Not to mention that his rockets have flat 11s cooldown and his grenades have 10s CD.


I just checked your profile on Elophant and LoLking, both show that you have no games played with Heimerdinger. (Plus: You are at 1010 Elo)

You neither have experience with the champion, furthermore you are - no offense - among the least skilled players ingame regarding to your rating.

You startpost is not only completely false in many aspects (Azir comparison), but you also lack the experience to actually talk about the champion.

Unless you stack straight AD runes, hardly any mid lane champs can take down one of his turrets with 2 AA. If Heimer were usually played bottom lane, then your defense of him would be well backed. But in a typical mid lane, he is virtually unbeatable unless 1) you play Syndra, Ahri, Azir, or Yasuo, 2) the Heimer is garbage, or 3) have unlimited mana.
