It burned Brand's mana, sure, but Soniv literally had no answer to that, even when he placed his turrets to the side. All he could do was last hit under the turret for the entire early game. | ||

I also ate a bunch of free harass for no reason. But I'm willing to write off Brand as a counter. He has weaknesses, yes. But all champions do ~_~ (well, except Riven I guess) | ||

On the other hand, if Brand burns cooldowns and mana on his turrets, then he isn't using them on Heimer, who thus stays relatively safe. Also, Heimer isn't Pantheon or LB or Talon (but not Zed or Kha'Zix or Jayce) who need to crush their lanes to make an impact later on, sure he's no Anivia or Karthus either but it's not the worst thing in the world. | ||

You get more turrets, but they're much squishier and you're still very limited by turret cooldown/kit storage. The new turret's line attack is also sorta bad since the projectile speed is so slow even minions can dodge it. His new missiles are fine, but I think old missiles were stronger since they had longer range, were semi-undodgeable, and did more damage unless you hit multiple missiles on the same target, which isn't easy. Heimer's ulti turret is neat, but I just wish the ulti turret slowed instead of doing the rather pointless aoe attack since enemies generally won't group up enough for the aoe to be meaningful. He also has a lot less utility now due to no more slowing turrets. | ||

The turrets are better because they won't randomly stop attacking and just sit there in the middle of a fight. | ||

Riot renames spellblade mastery because it had the same name as the item proc but did different things. Now they add a feast mastery that has the same name as chogath's ult but does different things. riot pls | ||

However good luck against nidalee who will 1 shot your turrets with max range spears. I actually just played nidalee vs heimer last night as nid. It was actually really annoying because nidalee has a lot of trouble vs. heros that push constantly like heimer +turrets. Max range spears do kill turrets but he can put them behind melee creeps and be mostly fine. I was running oom trying to kill turrets w/ spears and also healing harass damage from his rockets / whenever he would land a good grenade. Also a little turret wall is great for blocking spears. He could push relatively safely because he is so great in 1v2 situations thanks to turret damage and nidalee is at bad at assisting ganks, especially when heimer can easily dodge spears. Heimer pressure + no lanes really winning meant he got my second tower with relative ease. We managed to win because we had a long fight in the jungle where I landed a lot of spears and Heimer did not get the chance to set up good towers. Also I got through laning phase behind in CS but I didn't die It felt like his power really dropped off out of lane. I think turrets are actually a pretty solid nidalee counter at least in lane but once it becomes a 5v5 siege situation nidalee outshines heimer. Edit: I didn't some words. | ||

It wasn't hard to make sure the missile hits an enemy - definitely trickier, but it was pretty easy. You can make the argument that the missiles now are less reliable since the range is shorter, it's now a skillshot that can be dodged/damage minimized. The turret issue you referred to is a bug that can just be fixed via proper coding/bug squashing and doesn't need an entire rework to get rid of the issue. | ||
