How to win lane as Heimerdinger against Twitch · 53.51% win rate over 114 Emerald+ games · Updated 2026-07-27
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Heimerdinger | Level 1 favours you because Twitch's Q is stealth utility, so your turret wall wins the straight trade. |
| Level 2 | Heimerdinger | Level 2 favours you as your turrets zone a weak-laning Twitch off his farm. |
| Level 3 | Heimerdinger | Level 3 favours you since W-E plus turret DPS out-trade him hard in the 2v2. |
| Levels 4-5 | Heimerdinger | Levels 4-5 favour you because denying E-Contaminate stacks starves his scaling. |
| Level 6 | Heimerdinger | Level 6 favours you as UPGRADE!!! plus CC bursts a squishy Twitch before his R matters. |
| First item | Heimerdinger | First item favours you since your turret spike still beats lane Twitch pre-Runaan's. |
| Two+ items | Twitch | 2+ items favours Twitch because R Spray and Pray plus Runaan's pierce and out-range your entire wall. |
Levels 1-2 your turret wall crushes a laning Twitch whose Q is a stealth tool, not a trade; zone him off CS and ward the stealth paths so he can't roam profitably.
