Frankly there're little laners than can compete with Heimer in lane. Heimerdinger is a design that does not really fit in mobas, much like people hate Techies in Dota 2. I usually classify them as "builders"

Sure they're not overpowered because you always know what to expect from them and when they shine and don't. This effectively allows you to avoid most of what they do. But to make the champion still fun to play he's REALLY powerful in that one compartment, which also makes him infuriating to play against.
