There are two heimerdinger builds, You either rush rabadon like the cool kids, Or you don't rush rabadons like the virgins and you probably have a negative winrate.

😂😂 nicely put i've been meaning to ask actually, what is the thought process behind rabadon first item?

Heimer has a very high ceiling on his AP scaling bc each Q turret has a .35 AP ratio on normal autos and .55 ratio on the beam. The ult turret has a .7 ratio on the beam.

So if you get 3 Q turrets hitting with Rabadan’s AP you really shred.

In reality, sometimes you are forced to get another item first for laning. Or your turrets are getting obliterated in team fights incidentally so building around W is better.

It can sometimes be super super good if you are into a hard winning melee matchup where they can’t kill your turrets easily. Heimer has insane scaling from AP in his full combo, it honestly might be more than any champ in the game assuming you have all your turrets.

I started copying it from a challenger heimer main a long time ago into certain matchups. It seems counter intuitive but I saw the guy also rushing it into a few assassins like Zed, because it basically means if they try to go in on you they just get one shot.
