No, he gets countered pretty hard, and most of the Heimers I've seen have actually been losing. He's just really boring to play against/with, and if his team backs him up properly it gets even more retarded.

heimer is by no means an instant win, but sometimes if there is the proper team comp to support him and if the enemy is largely disorganized, then heimer can force a playstyle on the game after which point there is not a lot the enemy can do to stop it. still, he can be shut down with good teamwork and smart play

With Heimerdinger? Try again~


Since you like posting screenshots so much, lets see you post one with 250 cs by the 20 min mark.

I haven't done the math yet, but to achieve that score I think you are looking at roughly 100% last hitting of every single creep wave (in 1 lane), and you likely wont have a chance to buy anything or leave your lane. It might not even be possible unless you are farming multiple lanes.

its obviously an exaggeration, but heimer is easily one of the strongest farmers period, if not the strongest. he consistently gets the greatest farm in the least amount of time with all of the decent-good heimers i play with/against

edit: which is why its actually feasible to rush zhonya's on him, most other heroes have to go for another, more easily built item first, then go zhonya's as a 3rd or 4th big ticket item, but heimer can do it as a first.

So what is everyone's take on Malzahar now that everyone doesnt run cleanse (because it doesnt remove debuffs anymore)

imo he is still pretty underwhelming, i dunno if its just cause most malz's i play against are bad, but they never seem to do much, in general except immobilize themselves so that they can get beat on by other ppl, i wonder if trying to do gimmicky things like stun over terrain is feasible/worth it

Hmm, I think he's nasty in tandem with an AoE stunner or two. When I ran with a Mal with Amumu I was fairly confident he'd take down at least one, assuming nothing interrupted him. He's "solid," though not great or anything.

still dont like him, his ult keeps himself pinned down, and you usually want it to disable someone, but you're just turning a 5v5 into a 4v4 for a majority of the battle. Compare his character design to bane in DoTA, same ult, but bane can disable 2 people by himself, and a 3rd with guinsoo, weaken a fourth with enfeeble. So having him in a battle means you can "outnumber" the opponents, but malazhar doesnt let you do that, the rest of his skills are aoe or single target damage, so you're better off getting another mage that can disable and output damage, without channeling (fiddle, annie, ryze, morgana, etc)

I'll let you know when I run into a decent one. I've seen maybe 1 malzahar in the past 100 games. That dude is more rare than corki.

I was shocked to see malzahar as the 6th most played champ on lolbase, as of last patch. I guess he is somewhat popular in other ELO brackets @_@

i think part of the problem in his unpopularity comes from his 6.3k price tag, whereas he is not one of the flashier heroes, so he doesnt get as much attention (i.e. anivia, karthus), kennen suffers a similar fate

edit: also, lolbase doesnt exactly cover the entire lol population, since it is dependent on ppl uploading their stuffs, but it may be enough to be representative, idk, who knows

At higher elos Reidan and someone else seems to main him, that I've seen, I only ran into Reidan in my first game in ranked (3-4 times in nonrank but that was before Cleanse got whacked), and that was a roflstomp cuz three high elos (me + Reidan + Neo) vs 5 scrubs = worthless. When I Amumu'd with the other one the double AoE was nasty, and he'd basically gib someone to make it 5v4. It's tough to say, really. He's a bit like the old Veigar, except not limited to gibbing mana heroes.

Edit:
I could see a team comp, right now, of Amumu + Mal + Garen basically insta-wiping teams that get caught in the triple AoE, and the AoE range is larger than Annie/Malphite.

Is there a way to predict where Yi will end up after an alpha strike? As far as I can tell, it's completely random. Sometimes I'll appear right back where I launched from (like my glorious game-winning-baron-snipe-from-jungle-side), other times I'll be standing right next to one of the champions I hit. Other times it'll completely bug out, like hitting golem and ending up on the other side of the trees.

To illustrate the import of this, I drew a picture:

I started playing Corki again after I found out that Maknoon switched to him. He really is an underrated hero that needs more love. People keep giving me shit for picking Corki and are amazed when I start carrying them and racking up the triple kills. He just takes finesse to play well, as he's pretty squishy and needs to get close to hit with gatling gun. It's also kinda cool that nobody really knows how dangerous he can be, assume he's bad, don't focus fire him, and let him kill everybody with aoe damage from hell. That proabably wont happen at higher levels, but its crazy how much burst you can do to a team with a crit rocket, bomb and gatling gun.

I think most Corki's build him wrong and go right for the bf-sword like tristana players instead of getting a quick sheen into trinity force to give him a far stronger mid-game. I'm having much more success with that build and I'm damn ok with people thinking he's bad, they probably have no idea how to deal with him.

He ends on whatever he targeted first (usually the closest thing when he starts)

It guessed Cho in one try with me, amazing.

After three tries, it hasn't come up with Nasus yet though. Is Armadon from HoN anything like Nasus?

And if the thing you hit first (Baron) was killed, you'll pop at your launch point?

I'm not really sure what happens if it dies before you finish. I want to say end up where it died.
