Yes, Swiftness for real. I've tried Sorc boots, and they're great on the right champ. Heimerdinger is not one of them; he is one of the slowest AP's in the game, and also happens to have among the worst kit for escaping. Try out-running a Jax, Trynd, or Teemo with Sorcs. They will survive the grenade stun/blind and will last longer than your 6s Ice turrets, provided your turrets even last 6s.

Sorcs are great for champs who already have built-in escapes. Lux, Veigar, Katarina, and Zilean are all great examples of AP champs who excel with Sorcs. They also happen to have either a snare, root, speed boost, or distance creator.

Try out Swiftness, Move Quins, and Utility speed boost before you bash the build. You'll be surprised at the shit you escape and the kills you just barely sneak in.
