When I went to play new Heimerdinger, I initially took him top, as he struck me as being much better top than mid before the rework. The trouble is that the turrets do less damage on their own now, and a lot of top laners are durable enough to just walk up and kill them, plus they can build tanky, which removes any chance you have to zone or poke them. I'd say his ideal matchup is against a melee mid, or a squishy melee top like Tryndamere. Ultimately, I'd put him mid more, unless their toplaner is not a bruiser or a tank.
