LANING PHASE:

A laning Heimerdinger is a Tower Pusher !
So I will explain 3 situations :
1- Middle
2-Solo Top
3- Dual Lane
I will explain how to avoid Ganks also but only 1 time after my 3 situations !



1- Middle

The goal of the middle lane is to get leveled faster and to not miss much last hit on creeps.

The creeping of heimerdinger is pretty simple... Land your turret in the middle(Hit creeping) of your creeps or away of them(Skill creeping) (depending if the ennemy champion has aoe creeping or 1hit kill creeping you'll have to place them those ways so they don't destroy them)


So After you have set a turret, always let her pick a target and try to last hit it ! (This way ur 99% sure to always last hit the creep and you can also focus a creep while she last hit another)
That part is awesome since at turret level 4-5 they can totally farm the lane while you shop !

Heimerdinger is a good laning harrasser, when the ennemy creep wave as 2 or less creep go forward to get range for the champion and W(missile) it !

A bad lane for heimerdinger is a NUNU (Q skill eats your turret), a jungler with smite(Smite eats your turret), Yi (Q Skill rape turret) but remember you can spam your turrets and stock them so just place another is these cases !

A level 6 Heimerdinger can go jungle the blue buff really quickly by using missile, grenade, 2turret and go in his lane (the turrets will end it for you)

You can also get someone in middle and go full jungle then start ganks !

How to gank with heimer? Here it is..

Way #1 You wait they push enough... You set your turrets behind them.. Keep your grenade ready.. spam your missiles on them and while they running to your turrets ULT... it will slow them and then grenade stun one on the fire of your grenades.

Way #2 You Grenade the guy.. use missile and set turrets then ult.. this way is a bit harder since you must really Combo kill him else he ran away.

2- Solo Top


The goal of the Solo Top lane is to get leveled faster and to not miss much last hit on creeps and allow a second player to farm more while you have a jungler.

The creeping of heimerdinger is again, pretty simple... Land your turret in the middle(Hit creeping) of your creeps or away of them(Skill creeping) (depending if the ennemy champion has aoe creeping or 1hit kill creeping you'll have to place them those ways so they don't destroy them)


After you have set a turret, always let her pick a target and try to last hit it ! (This way ur 99% sure to always last hit the creep and you can also focus a creep while she last hit another)
That part is awesome since at turret level 4-5 they can totally farm the lane while you shop !

Heimerdinger is a good laning harrasser, when the ennemy creep wave as 1 or no creep ( in a 2v1 mode or 2creep or less in a 1v1 top mode) go forward to get range for the champion and W(missile) it !
But if you are 2 versus 1 Be cautious. Heimerdinger is really Squishy(he can be killed fast). You must play defensive. Set your turrets behind your waves and try to last hit with your normal attacks more then your turrets. Otherwise the ennemy team will kill them each creep wave.

A bad lane for heimerdinger is once again a NUNU (Q skill eats your turret), a jungler with smite(Smite eats your turret), Yi (Q Skill rape turret) but remember you can spam your turrets and stock them so just place another is these cases ! Take care also to ranged STUN and ranged Slow which can blast out heimerdinger pretty fast.

A level 6 Heimerdinger can go jungle the blue buff really quickly by using missile, grenade, 2turret and go in his lane (the turrets will end it for you) but in a top laning phase i suggest to steal THEIR blue(if you are sure that it isn't done and that it is safe)

You can also get someone at the top and go full jungle then start ganks !

How to gank with heimer? In top laning you are normally the support of the ganker !

How to gank :
Way #1 You wait they push enough... You set your turrets behind them.. Keep your grenade ready.. spam your missiles on them and while they running to your turrets ULT... it will slow them and then grenade stun one on the fire of your grenades.

Way #2 You Grenade the guy.. use missile and set turrets then ult.. this way is a bit harder since you must really Combo kill him else he ran away.

How to support the ganker :

Let the ennemy push to you ! Land your grenade on someone, missile, run to them and spam your turrets and cast your ult ! The ennemy will be low hp and slowed then your ganker will easily get a kill or an assist.

3- Dual Lane :

The goal of the Dual Lane is to get leveled at a normal rate and to not miss much last hit on creeps and allow your team to keep an eye on the dragon (considering you have 1 top 1mid 1jungler and a dual lane).

The creeping of heimerdinger is again, pretty simple... Land your turret in the middle(Hit creeping) of your creeps or away of them(Skill creeping) (depending if the ennemy champion has aoe creeping or 1hit kill creeping you'll have to place them those ways so they don't destroy them)


After you have set a turret, always let her pick a target and try to last hit it ! (This way ur 99% sure to always last hit the creep and you can also focus a creep while she last hit another)
That part is awesome since at turret level 4-5 they can totally farm the lane while you shop !

Heimerdinger is a good laning harrasser, when the ennemy creep wave as 2 or no creep ( in a 2(your team) v 1 mode or 1creep or less in a 2v2 top mode) go forward to get range for the champion and W(missile) him/them !
You can use your grenade to scout the bushes to see if a gank is coming or if ennemies are hidden there to zone you. If you hit them you will stun and blind them !

You can also warn your teammate and go full jungle then start ganks !

How to Avoid a Gank as Heimerdinger and save your teammates and your life !

Scouting if the first way. You cast grenade often in the river bush to see if someone waits there. Put a turret in there to see if someone is coming ( note that you'll loose creep kill speed doing it).

Positionning is the other way. Do not push to much except after having a double kill on bottom lane ! Set your turrets near the minions fighting spot ! If a ganker comes : Ult + Grenade him + use missiles and run. this way they will be slowed/blind/stun. And you might grab a kill from your turrets if you successfully stunned someone !

Cost90/90/90 Mana
Range 280


Techmaturgical Repair Bots- Heimerdinger gives nearby allied Turrets and Champions 6/12/16/22 health regen per 5.


MASTERIES AND RUNES:

I go 9-0-21 Caster Masteries ! (it gives a lot of CDR//Magic Pen//Mana Regen)

The runes i suggest for HeimerDinger Are:


MagicPenetration Quint
MagicPrenetration Marks
ManaRegen/Level Seal
AbilityPower or CDR Glyphs


CONCLUSION

Heimerdinger is a character you must be used to. He is really good in team fight bait because his turrets gives him a huge dmg and he can be totally somewhere else to nuke ennemies !
His ultimate makes his turrets slowing machines + his grenade move really faster and he launches 5missiles instead of 3.
Blind grenade in team fight is amazing ! you can put ad carry to silence while they get raped missing their hits !
At lvl 18, having the first build written, he can get turrets to 200dmg per hit + missiles at 600-700dmg + grenade at 700-800 dmg. That is NUKING. Some people may fight your turrets 1v1 and if you ult correctly, get a kill while shopping !


Edit : Summoner spells : i like ghost clarity to go Aggressive

Le grand guide du grand PLT.

Chuckled..

nice stolen guide rofl

Not at all -,-




this is how i do it sorry for no survability but if ur good u dont die

This post was edited by PLT1 on Mar 18 2011 12:00pm

Just a couple comments which are my opinion and fact in some cases.

No champion should be ALL damage items. This won't get you anywhere in ranked, because you must have some survivability, and I yell at my own guilds builds and friends over this matter. Heimer is a support carry/push, but any good team will focus your ass down if you have no survivability.. I can guarentee it if you have NO protection items at all, because you'd be first on the list to die.

I had to edit because I had Annie in my head prior to this guide.

ill claim to ban you from contest

this is a stolen guide

The theory of being good so don't die doesn't work. I main Gragas who has some of the best escape ability in the game and still die, and main him for ranked. Even my own guide states that you need survivability, and one of his abilities is mainly for tanking and I still get survivability items on him to support that.

This. You can't possibly be a glass cannon because the enemy team won't be that retarded.

Positioning and your teammates can only do so much.

In some cases, going full damage is ok but any game lasting more than 35 minutes you shouldn't go glass cannon.
