Why get turrets so late? atleast get turrets to rank 4 for the extra hp and reduced armor. Grenade can save you in ganks by blinding the target so u can easily run away and blind them. -1

Because they're mindless minions when considered in terms of gameplay.

You must not have much awareness for support characters.
Turrets wipe out minions, Rockets take care of harass.
Grenades are already raised early enough to be useful.
Turret HP bonus is not worth it, and neither is the Magic Pen when a turret's main purpose is damaging minions. If you have a good lane-partner, their destruction isn't an issue; more damage means killing the minions faster, leading to pushing, which means you have to re-make your turrets, which wastes mana.

A level3 Rockets are far more useful for zoning out the enemies early game then turrets are.

You also clearly did NOT take the time to read the description. Fail much?

It would seem you've never expanded your horizons outside of dependency on your turrets then.
Otherwise, you'd at least have the awareness to try a build before down-voting it, something I took extra time to post at the top of my descriptions.
But of course, again, you didn't even bother to read the explanation through, so how could one expect such plain and simple courtesy?

Just another typical Heimerdinger bandwagon fan. You're the one who clearly does not know what he's talking about.
Try exploring outside the realm of turrets, my description even included Riot-sourced proof that Heimerdinger's a support, justifying his most recent turret nerf as well as justifying my build.

I think this is a great build, especially about getting the Turret a bit later.
Great Thinking, +1

@Tr4ce:

Rylai's slow passive does not affect Heimerdinger's Turrets.
The turrets are separate entities, pets. They have their own stats and are only affected by Heimerdinger's AP scaling.

It does affect Heimer's Rockets, which is amazing as Rockets aren't AoE, so it preserves the 35% slow with the power of a 3-hitter.

I like this build, Not as much as your tf build, but it's pretty good, tried it out, I prefer to have zhonya's a little earlier but other than that its pretty good, +1

I play Hiemer a lot and agree about getting turrets later. With all the nerfs, Hiemer relies more on rockets and nades than his turrets.

I use a similar build except I start out with Doran's ring (for the hp, mp regen and a small ap boost) and rush for zhonya's ring. After getting ring, I go for rylais for extra hp and slowdown. For mana and CDR, I try and get blue buffs every time so I can spam his rockets and nades.

Great build. +1
