What makes Heimerdinger dangerous
Heimerdinger plants up to three turrets that focus you (with a charged beam), pokes with long rockets and a stunning grenade, and his ultimate empowers a spell — an upgraded turret with waves of beams, a rocket barrage, or a huge bouncing stun.
How to play against Heimerdinger
- 1Clear turrets with abilities/waves before trading — never fight inside the nest.
- 2His grenade is the only hard CC — dodge it and dive freely.
- 3Call your jungler when he pushes past river — no turrets = free kill.
- 4Out-roam him: turret zones don't defend the rest of the map.
Weaknesses to exploit
- ✓Helpless without turret setup.
- ✓Immobile and gank-friendly outside his nest.
- ✓Turrets fall fast to AoE waveclear.
- ✓Falls off when fights move around the map.

P
마법공학 전문가아군 포탑이나 하이머딩거가 설치한 포탑 주변에서 이동 속도가 증가합니다.
Strong: passive move speed near his turrets — he orbits the nest fast. Weak: leaves the nest slow — catch him rotating.
Q
H-28 G 진화형 포탑하이머딩거가 관통 광선 공격이 추가된 속사포 포탑을 설치합니다. (하이머딩거의 포탑은 적 포탑에 절반의 피해만 줍니다.)
Strong: three turrets with beams — a fortress that fights alone. Weak: turrets die to AoE and lose charge when he's far.
W
마법공학 초소형 로켓하이머딩거가 마우스 커서 위치로 모이는 초소형 로켓들을 발사합니다.
Strong: a rocket fan that converges for heavy point damage. Weak: max damage needs point-blank convergence — stay at mid-range.
E
CH-2 전자폭풍 수류탄하이머딩거가 목표 위치에 수류탄을 던져 적에게 피해를 입힙니다. 수류탄에 직격당한 적은 기절하며, 빗겨맞은 유닛은 느려집니다.
Strong: a bouncing stun grenade that chains with turret beams. Weak: slow lob — his ONLY CC; dodge it and dive freely.
R
업그레이드!!!하이머딩거가 업그레이드를 개발하여, 다음 스킬의 효과가 증가합니다.
Strong: upgrades a spell — beam-wave mega turret, rocket storm or a huge stun. Weak: one upgrade per cast — the mega turret dies like any other.
Itemization
