You gotta be pretty bad to get ganked in mid as Heimer... it's a short lane, along with the fact that he can push a lane or reset a pushed lane from all the way by his turret with his rockets and good turret placement. He should almost always be able to farm in complete safety unless he's up against a hard counter that can easily destroy his turrets no matter where he places them and are able to put out constant harass on him as well, like Caitlyn.

Most junglers should be about halfway dead before they get anywhere near him, between his rockets and the turret he should have placed to the side. They won't have time to kill the turret if they want to get him, so the turret usually gets to shoot them the whole time they go through its range... that and rockets in their face will make most think twice and slink back into the jungle. If they don't, Heimer should be most of the way back to his turret by then and ready to hit them with a grenade and an easy stun if they still try and get close to him.
