Heimer top is annoying af
Getting real tired of all the 
top picks lately. Like seriously, those turrets are bs. Especially when most top meta champs have little to no range. Getting real tired of it.
Any tips in dealing with this nuisance?

It was annoying to me too, but then I learned the glory of Spin to Win.
Nasus loves getting his lane shoved, which Heimer has no choice but to do. Once lane is shoved, Heimer is extremely vulnerable to ganks, and wither pretty much seals his fate, especially since top is a longer lane than mid so he has less time to get back to the safety of his turret.
Once Nasus recalls and picks up some magic resist (
) those little turrets become free stacks for him, it's literally twice as easy to stack on those turrets compared to Yorick's ghouls.
You aren't going to like the response but, kill the turrets and it is easy.
You may have to force him to use some abilities, just try and kill his turrets before he has a chance to stack them up. You will have to play more passive than you want to, and you may have to forego being ganked for, as it is very easy as Heimer (I play Heimer top <_< sorry) to kill the jungler who thinks he has an easy kill because you are squishy Heimer.
Play champs like Cho, Nasus, um...Sion...use his E and hit the turret, it will knock it away, and since placement matters, will screw Heimer up and probably annoy him more than you killing it.
If you are countering it, don't play things like Darius or something like that, as they can kill his turrets at best, and get low while doing it, making you an easy target, especially when Heimer has his ult up.
Focus on his turrets, stand back a little if you can so he can't shoot rockets at you as easily through minions, try and either force him to place more turrets or something similar, as he will either not have charges to keep them up, or will start running low on mana and can't do anything BUT put turrets up, which will make him not be able to stun you, for example.
Just play aggressive on his turrets, and not on him, as he can easily punish you for chasing after him. If you are having trouble, just try and CS, don't fight, and play for after the laning phase and do your best not to get too behind.
