Tips for Playing as Heimerdinger with Irelia
Spreading out Hextech Micro-Rockets leads to more reliable damage and more efficiency against multiple targets, but focusing it creates the biggest impact.
The success of Electron Storm Grenade is very important to Heimerdinger's survival. The slow and stun both are capable of keeping enemies in place long enough to punish them, but it is also the first line of defense against a surprise attack.
Turret placement can be a deciding factor in a battle. Against most enemies turrets are best when they can support each other, but if the enemy has a lot of area of effect damage your turrets can be destroyed quickly. Placing turrets in brush can lead to a surprise attack in your favor.
Advice to Understand How Irelia Will Play
Defiant Dance is not interrupted by crowd control, try timing it for incoming disables.
Flawless Duet does not have a maximum travel distance, try using it in creative ways.
Use Bladesurge to cover great distances by targeting low life minions on your way to champion targets.
