Is Heimerdinger viable AT ALL? So I play to have a good time mostly, even in ranked, don't take myself too seriously, and recently i have been playing a ton of mundo with corporate mundo skin hah. Get some good scores, but still everyone gets SO pissed when I pick mundo.

but i've had a blast. So I was thinking about trying the same with heimer. I never see him EVER. (I did see him in ONE ranked game in JUNGLE, and he actually did kinda way better than i thought he would).

Any advice on how to actually play an effective heimer?

OR are there any other champs in the "trash tier" of mundo, heimer, that everyone makes fun of whne you pick, but are actually worth learning and fun to play?

I think Heimer and Mundo are both pretty good, not the best. I honestly think the main reason they seem to get little attention is because they are both extremely annoying to listen to. (I still play Mundo because he is fun. :P)

Heimer's turrets make holding a lane really easy for him. He is great at defending a turret. His blind is very useful. Just pay attention to the AD carries. Perfect timing on that blind can change a team fight quick. Heimer = AP.

Dan Dinh got heimerdinger banned in tournament play not too long ago.

I think that's pretty viable.

He has his strong points.

He has some pretty nasty, long range poke
He's also good at safely AFK pushing a lane. Useful for keeping agressive mid laners from roaming (LeBlanc/Sion/Kassadin/etc)

He's viable but you'd have to build a team around him to make him effective.

Heimerdinger is like... "How can I be a douchebag to 9 people at the same time..." And then you pick Heimer.

Heimerdinger isn't a genius, he's just a cheap imitator of Viktor.

Conclusion: Use Viktor, he's the true mastermind.

No problem ^^
