I don't mean she herself was lackluster. She was still interesting and funny to watch in TDI, and she did make some impressive moves. But I can't think of a single strategical move Heather made that wouldn't just increase her chances of being eliminated in future. Target Justin after you've read Gwen's diary and narrowly beat him in a vote? Kiss Trent, let Gwen know, have Gwen spread it, and then win invincibility out of sheer luck? Sacrifice Lindsay while there's 9 contestants left and she's her only faithful ally? The only thing she did that didn't mess her up in future was getting Geoff out, but that happens so close to the season ending anyways. The reason she had made f3 despite all these heavily risky decisions, none of which backfired on her, was because of her either winning invincibility, or the plot demanding that it be people like Izzy and Geoff that weren't nearly as unpopular, or having two auto eliminations in a row with Lindsay and DJ. These three things prevented her from ever being in danger in merge.

I'll still admit she's an endearing and funny antagonist to watch in TDI. Making yourself entertain me is huge criteria for me finding you a good antagonist which is why Justin is one of my favourite ones. But I won't deny she made me scratch my head in confusion when she did such ginormous gambles that completely luckily didn't backfire on her.
