Against Heimerdinger, focus on collecting Siphoning Strike stacks without losing too much health to poke. Avoid forcing early trades; look for an opening when he commits to a trade or uses his crowd control.

Prioritize safe Siphoning Strike farm

Use Siphoning Strike to secure minion kills and build permanent stacks. When you can, keep the wave closer to your turret so Heimerdinger has to move farther forward to pressure you. Don’t take significant damage just to contest farm.

Use Spirit Fire sparingly to manage the wave, since it costs mana. Avoid using it when Siphoning Strike can secure the minion instead.

Wait for a clear opening

Don’t engage just because Heimerdinger is in range. Look for a chance to trade after he commits to a deep trade or uses crowd control. If neither happens, keep farming rather than forcing an early fight.

Once you have built stacks, use Wither to hinder a target who is trying to kite you. If you use Fury of the Sands to commit to a fight, remember that crowd control and kiting can still make it difficult to reach your target.
