Yeah, expect near straight buffs on everything... the rework fixed the aspects of his play that were toxic, so they are now able to put the power of his abilities up to their real balanced levels.

Heimer ever since 2010 has been a weird combination of broken and nerfed into oblivion to make up for it. Damage trades in lane with him are unfair because of how his abilities work, so they had to straight up nerf him across the board hugely as a handicap to make up for it. That's why he's less than spectacular once he leaves lane most of the time... though he retains SOME power in mid-game fights because of his base damages, by late game he really becomes weak because of how much his scaling was nerfed.
