Ornn into Heimerdingermedium

Overview

Prioritize stable farming and durable trades to survive Heimerdinger's turret zones and poke pressure.
Accept medium lane pressure by avoiding turret control and scaling into impactful teamfights with engage and crowd control.
Use your scaling and item upgrades to outlast Heimerdinger's poke and zone control.

Trading pattern

Trade only when stun is on cooldown and turrets are low or cleared.
Use brittle trades combined with terrain knockups to punish Heimerdinger standing near turrets.
Avoid engaging without terrain for knockup or when Heimerdinger's upgrade is ready for burst or control.

Danger windows

Beware fights when Heimerdinger has multiple turrets active combined with stun ready.
Avoid extended trades inside turret zones where Heimerdinger's damage and control peak.
Exercise caution before level 6 and before your tank item when your durability is lower against his poke and burst.

Early game

Avoid extended trades before your first tank item; Heimerdinger punishes melee approaches with turrets.
Use to create terrain for safe knockups only when turrets are cleared or Heimerdinger is forced away.
Deny Heimerdinger easy turret placement by playing around minion waves and crashing or freezing near your side.

Power spikes

Level 6 unlocks long-range engage; use it when allies can follow or Heimerdinger is cornered near terrain.
First tank item spike lets you absorb turret poke and contest lane more safely.
Respect Heimerdinger's level 6 upgrade and first AP item spikes by avoiding fights near multiple turrets and his full combo.

Win conditions

Survive early poke and avoid turret zones to reach your first tank item and level 6 safely.
Use terrain and knockups to punish Heimerdinger when turrets are cleared or is down.
Coordinate with your team to engage with and layered crowd control to create picks and teamfight advantages.
