Heimdall's true strike in offence

From reading his abilities and watching a vid in YT,he gains true strike after launching a special which he only loses If he gets hit!So my question is if you get the true strike buff which is fairly easy to do, how are you supposed to get hit from an evade or autoblocking champ since you are shutting down those abilities....only answer I see is "if you make a silly mistake...or maybe from an unblockable special you won't manage to evade"!Just take a min and think about top tiers they rarely ever get hit from those champs even without having counters, so I am just seeing this as a permanent true strike!On top of that even if you get hit, you will just have to launch another special to gain it back, which is insanely easy, and you might be able to do so immediately or just after landing a 5-hit combo!

So guys I never ask for a nerf, but honestly either I am missing something here or Kabam created a god for evade and auto-block champs!And even if he proves to have pillow hands or low block prof or health...still having permanent true strike for the whole fight is way too much!
Anyway I do understand the community being against nerfs, so if you don't want to see a nerf its fine, but I just couldn't keep this to myself!

    He doesn't need a nerd. In fact, might benefit from a buff. He loses TS from any hit except blocked attacks. The chances of not getting hit in a high level AW is slim to none. Everyone slips up. On top of that, he's not the hardest hitter in the contest.
    Instead of jumping to conclusions without playing and only watching 1 YouTube video, do more research. Its absurd that you called for a nerf without understanding how he works.

    He has utility. He doesn't have that much damage or defense going on for him.
    He doesn't need a nerf. Know how a champion works before creating these threads

    Intercept with a special and there goes TS or just intercep his heavy or dash

    Exactly what you do with IMIW

    First of ally,i see a few commends abut how easy it is to shut his true strike down, it definitely is, i am guessing he might still be a decent defender,BUT I am here talking about him in offence!

    So back on topic,I've never ever asked for a nerf,i didn't even mentioned it back when blade was released and these forums were full of such threads!I am not even necessarily asking for one now, and you are right on accusing me for talking early since I personally don't have him yet...and probably it will take time to get,BUT I suspected this thing about Heimdall from when I first read the description of his abilities in EQ,and so was expecting a vid to confirm what I thought then...well he essentially has infinite true strike(and a really easy one to get/keep having).I personally believe that goes bit too far!Yes everyone slips in AW(although thats really rare in top tiers' ,personally have soloed spidey debuff immune mini with blade a few times, obviously not getting hit....imagine if you have true trike on..),but even then you will just get it back really fast and easy...just need to launch a special!He might not be the greatest hitter, but then again all you have to do is solo the opponent champ in 3mins with a champ that won't care about evade or auto block so you will land a lot of hits during that time!

    All in all I am really concerned about his utility going a step too far,AND I really really hope to be proven wrong when people start using him more.(Oh and by that I don't mean I don't want to be godly,just not as dominant as I see him become)

    Just curious though, you all guys don't really see a champ that powerful against evade and auto-block champs,two whole "families" of great defenders going a bit too far????

    @LeonBeni93 Do you have the champ? Have you actually used him and tested him?

    All champs should have their use. There are not a lot of champs that evade. Why not have a champ that keeps them fro evading?! Duped Iceman does it. I do not see any issue.
