Read from Heimerdinger's seat: which stage windows this plan plays for against Miss Fortune.
This is Heimerdinger's own plan; across 1,360 pooled games the lane is leaning Miss Fortune.
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Heimerdinger | Level 1 is roughly even on stats with no turret yet, but you avoid Double Up bounces and hold the lane at parity, keeping the phase nominally yours. |
| Level 2 | Heimerdinger | At level 2 your Q charges and W rockets let you zone MF's step-up poke before she can chain Love Tap procs. |
| Level 3 | Heimerdinger | By level 3 the turret nest and E stun-slow out-range her Double Up poke, giving you lane control. |
| Levels 4-5 | Heimerdinger | Through 4-5 stacked turrets punish every reposition MF makes to line up poke, so you stay ahead. |
| Level 6 | Heimerdinger | At level 6 her stationary Bullet Time loses to your instant rocket-and-grenade answer plus CC, keeping the edge yours. |
| First item | Heimerdinger | With one item your turrets shove and siege, forcing MF under tower and denying her trade windows. |
| Two+ items | Heimerdinger | In the 2+ item teamfight your turret wall and grenade deny her ult cone, so the late game stays Heimerdinger-favoured. |
Levels 1-2 are close to even in raw stats, but Miss Fortune's Double Up only spikes if it bounces off a killed unit onto you and Love Tap rewards her for alternating targets, so deny both by never standing directly behind a low minion and tag the wave with W from max range. Don't hand-CS in her Double Up line; let turrets and rockets farm while you dodge the bounce. Plant so the turret is beside you rather than behind you, and there is no straight line for the bounce to travel. Poke her with rockets while she is walking, because her passive only pays her for hitting something new. Her disengage is what saves her from the stun, so make her spend it on a fake commit first.
