You have not seen what people can do with those turrets. Heimerdinger is not a duelist. So if a Carry is focusing down on him or the turrets in a 1v1 the carry is going to win. Usually.

However you have to focus Heimerdinger or else he will get you with the damage from his ranged spells and the turrets and not to mention the amplified damage he gets from his ult for all his spells.

His turrets really aren't any more accessible or tankier than Zyra's plants. Really. Having played both those champs very often they are on the lower rung of tanky pets (with Tibbers and the Voidlings being on the higher rung excluding champion pets).

They do have really similiar mechanics but they don't oust each other really as they are just as different.
