Tips Against Blitzcrank as a Support Tips Provided by MOBAFire Guide Authors
Sakuritou says “Once again, same as Naut and Pyke, any type of hook champion is really hard to play against for Senna.”
0
solus770 says “Blitzcrank's ultimate, Static Field, can destroy shields, making him a considerable threat. He also has the highest hook range out of all the hook champions, allowing him to catch targets from unexpected distances. Like most engage champions, he can roam effectively, apply pressure to your teammates, and contest objectives extremely well during the early game.
In the mid to late game, Blitzcrank—like many other engage supports—can place deep wards in your jungle and deny you access, with the constant threat of being caught and killed. When playing against engage champions, you should never ward alone, as many of them will sit in bushes with their team, waiting for you to make a mistake.”

Liam2109 says “Es muy molesto y si te posicionas mal puede joderte bastante la partida.”

stroderna says “A hook champion can very easily kill you if you're out of position.”

Kogami123 says “Early Game (Laning Phase)
✅ Gragas a l'avantage au début grâce à son poke avec Q et son sustain.
✅ Blitzcrank est une menace énorme avec son Q : si vous êtes attrapé, c’est souvent un all-in immédiat.
⚠ Évitez de rester trop près de Blitzcrank et faites attention à son Q - Grappin, un bon grab peut tourner un trade en sa faveur.
⚠ Soyez patient et ne vous exposez pas sans vision pour ne pas être attrapé par son grab.
Mid-Game (Roaming et Skirmishes)
✅ Gragas peut roamer efficacement grâce à son E + R, alors que Blitzcrank reste souvent ancré à la lane.
✅ Si Blitzcrank rate son grab, vous avez un bon timing pour engager ou punir son ADC avec E + Q.
⚠ Le grab de Blitzcrank peut déstabiliser toute la fight, faites attention à la portée de son Q en skirmish.
⚠ Utilisez votre R pour désengager si Blitz engage mal, ou pour repousser un grab dangereux.
Late-Game (Teamfights & Objectifs)
✅ Gragas est plus polyvalent et peut engager ou désengager avec son R, ce qui est très utile en teamfight.
✅ Si Blitzcrank rate son grab, il est extrêmement vulnérable, vous pouvez le punir rapidement.
⚠ Ne vous regroupez pas trop pour éviter un grab qui pourrait isoler votre ADC ou midlaner.
⚠ Le grab de Blitzcrank reste une menace même en late game, faites attention à sa portée et à sa vision.”

ShriekingMammoth says “Whilst Shen can combat fairly well against Blitz, this champion can still easily kill your ADC. Be ready to counteract hooks with taunts and block knock up punches with your W and you should do well. His R does destroy shields (R and P shields) so keep that in mind.”
0
Kirkwardo says “The rare matchup you are better off going Ward then Lens. Your constant threat of poke will force lane to under there tower where his grab will outrange your poke. Best to stand close to river and watch for gank and try to poke Bot. ”
0
FreljordFrog says “If a Blitzcrank knows how to land their hook (or you don't know how to dodge [like me]), your laning phase is going to be terrible. If Blitzcrank presses R, you have no way of using your shields or healing, and as a squishy you die instantly without said shields.”
0
Neiri says “If I had a second ban, I'd ban Blitz. Respect his CC. Ping your ADC back. This dude will snatch them. Your ADC will add you after game. Block their friend request.”

TEMMA says “EVITE TOMAR O PUXÃO DO BLITZCRANK
Jogar no max range do Q da Sona e de preferencia entre os minions
Aplicar o slow quando ele tentar tomar utilizar o E em você em você ou no aliado ”

Luluka3 says “If he runs towards you Q and run! Try to dodge their q, you can rush boots against tank sups for easier dodge.”

Zileanaire says “Any hook champ is scary, but what makes blitz annoying is the silence on his ult. Use your minions as cover (or your ADC lol) and play smart. Punish or go all in when he misses hooks if you trust your carry. ”
0
FlopQueenEra says “His hook hitbox is too big, you better side step it or X_X”
0
JVS8 says “Playing against Blitzcrank can be challenging, as getting hooked usually leads to death unless you have Flash available. However, you can out-roam him and scale better in the late game. The key is to play safely, wait for opportunities, and rely on your jungle for assistance.”
0
offmeta support says “Cant engage, he will just ult you or knockup you, what gives his adc enough time to reposition or run.”
0
IGMorgane says “A personal nightmare.
You can block the grab with a plant but the grab is very quick.
To achieve it, you have to put your seed as close to you as possible.
You also have to use your root, so if it's not working, you'r dead.
PERMA BANN
Well if you play against him : stay in your wave and zone him as much as you can, while staying safe.”
0
Pykings says “His hook is much more lethal than yours but he's useless when it's down.
Whoever gets the first few kills in laning will snowball the rest of the game. Consider rushing Edge if you can.
Make sure to notify your teammates to not die to a blitz invade or consider stacking to anticipate his invade. Be mindful that Blitz can blind hook so ward over walls when stacking.
You can intentionally get hooked by blitz lvl 1 if you guys are stronger. Once you get hooked it'll give you a free gap close to lvl 1 E onto their ADC. Don't try this after lvl 1 as your E will get interrupted by his knockup.”

BabyCuddlePunkin says “Skill matchup that you should generally win. Push 2, poke before he has pressure to hook. Poke so that he cannot hook without being punished. ”

He can also dodge your stun with his W while running at you.”

The Stabbio says “He's pretty alright, just watch out for his Q's and you should be fine. Also, ward the bushes or spots where he could land a hook on you or your adc.”

Smaugyon says “his hook is insanely strong against you and will force you to respect him so you wont be able to stack super well. Also it makes roaming quite dangerous since he can hook you trough walls”

Aerenax says “Blitzcrank is one of the easiest matchups for you. If he pulls in your ADC, you follow with your Q. If he pulls you in, he screwed himself over as you are closer to him to lock him down or you get a better angle on his ADC.”

zSharpFire says “Lane shouldn't be completly lost but it's hard to do everything.”
0
JVS8 says “Just flash his hook and play safe with your adc, just try to roam when necessary and just force plays on him when your jungler is around to help you guys.”
0
Arctic Arrow says “Blitzcrank is a major threat due to his ability to catch out champions with his Q (Rocket Grab). His strong engage potential can quickly turn the tide of a fight if he lands a hook on you or your ADC.
Play carefully to avoid getting caught by his hook and use your mobility to stay out of his grab range. Focus on dodging his skill shots and position yourself to capitalize on his missed hooks.
If he hooks your ADC, use your E to reposition them, but be ready to tank the hook if necessary. Try to engage when his hook is on cooldown or when he mispositions.”

BigodeOfLegends says “A good pull from Blitzcrank can result in a quick death for Senna, especially since she is fragile and relies on keeping her distance.”

Only issue this matchup is does your ADC have a death wish.

Instantly Q (or Q+flash ADC) his E auto so you will get knocked up both.
You can buffer all of his abilities.
Beware of his hook late game catch potential.”

IMANOOBOKOWO says “My best advice is to permaban him. His hook is way too much of a threat for you and ur adc since while you are using E you are inmobile and if he hooks your adc he gets oneshotted. Also the hooking over the walls is too much of a risk in general specially when your adcs dont usually respect blitzs”

1yanou says “Very rough. Laning phase isn't that hard as long as you stay in between minions, but if you don't have a huge lead as the game goes on you won't be able to enter the jungle etc. Will be extremely hard to get objectives or even just walk anywhere or ward if you fall behind. ”

MorePierogiVanya says “While it is certainly nice to not have to engage due to Blitz hook, you aren't Leona. You are very squishy without Aftershock so if one of you gets hooked...good luck. HOWEVER, you if time it right, you can cast your E before getting hooked and reactivate VERY quickly to counter the rest of his kit.
Basically: Liss E -> Blitz Q hits -> Liss spam E -> Liss is where her claw is at the time”

Fenreee says “He should be in minor honestly but I'll put him in even purely because one mistake is all it takes for the lane to get sort of out of hand. If he flash E's you he loses if you and your ally focus the enemy ADC, but if he's ahead it will just lead to you getting oneshot usually. With that said, you really shouldn't get hooked by this guy. Prioritize good bush control on lane and poke well across the wave. Stand in your casters and Q into your melee minions then walk back after a single AA. If you shove a hook champion in then you will always have minions to hide behind.”

JezebelleXX says “Be wary of Flash + Q, Flash + R when you are R-ing. Keep lane bushes warded, his Q has about a 20 CD and is very easy to exploit but if you get hit by it, you will die. Celerity recommended. Aery and Comet both viable.”

Shadowcrushers says “Blitzcrank is considered a counter to Soraka due to several factors that exploit her vulnerabilities and weaknesses. Here's a detailed explanation of why Blitzcrank has an advantage over Soraka:
Hard Crowd Control (CC): Blitzcrank possesses one of the most potent crowd control abilities in the game, his Rocket Grab (Q). This ability allows him to hook an enemy champion towards him, effectively pulling them out of position and potentially into the midst of his team. Soraka, on the other hand, is an immobile champion who heavily relies on positioning and staying at the backline to provide healing and support. Blitzcrank's Rocket Grab can catch Soraka off-guard, interrupting her healing and potentially leading to her demise.
Silence: Blitzcrank's Power Fist (E) applies a silence effect to his target, preventing them from casting abilities for a short duration. This is especially effective against Soraka, as she relies heavily on her abilities for healing and utility. By silencing Soraka, Blitzcrank can disrupt her healing abilities, rendering her unable to provide immediate support to her allies during critical moments.
Burst Damage: Blitzcrank is known for his high burst damage potential, particularly when he combines his abilities. By utilizing his Rocket Grab to pull Soraka towards him and following up with a Power Fist and Static Field (R), Blitzcrank can unleash a significant amount of damage in a short amount of time. Soraka's healing abilities are less effective when she's under heavy burst damage, making it difficult for her to keep herself and her teammates alive in a fight against Blitzcrank.
Zoning and Threat Presence: Blitzcrank's mere presence in the lane can create a sense of threat and zone control. Soraka relies on staying at a distance to heal her allies, but Blitzcrank's aggressive playstyle and the threat of his Rocket Grab make it risky for Soraka to position herself freely. This limits her ability to provide consistent healing and support to her teammates.
Punishing Mistakes: Soraka's squishiness and lack of mobility make her susceptible to punishment when she mispositions or gets caught out of position. Blitzcrank's ability to pull enemies towards him can catch Soraka off-guard and punish her mistakes, potentially leading to her death or forcing her to burn summoner spells.
Countering Soraka's Ultimate (Wish): Soraka's ultimate ability, Wish, provides a global heal to all allies, regardless of their location on the map. However, Blitzcrank's Static Field has an area-of-effect silence effect that can prevent Soraka from using her ultimate at critical moments. By silencing Soraka, Blitzcrank can deny her the opportunity to save her teammates from dangerous situations or turn the tide of team fights.
It's important to note that while Blitzcrank has advantages against Soraka, success in the matchup ultimately depends on player skill, teamwork, and overall game strategy. Good positioning, warding, and coordination with teammates can help Soraka mitigate some of Blitzcrank's threats and allow her to provide effective healing and support throughout the game.”

jmp_01_ says “Blitzcrank is also one of the match-ups I didn't really play for quite some time. Although I can say that you have to play safe during laning phase and not get hit by his grab. Before level 6 he can't really do much since he has barely any damage. Take Aftershock.”

Lunar Empress says “If you get caught, you're dead. Consider your wig snatched. Ripped right off your head. Same thing if it happens to your ADC. Go Summon Aery to mitigate as much damage as possible if that happens. Blitz falls off heavily later so you win late game. Play it relatively safe until then.”

mazewalk says “Skill matchup but you'll get hooked a lot while E'eing to your team.
His hook has a really narrow hitbox, but cd is longer and mana cost is really high, so you can abuse that. You can provoke him to waste his hook by walking away from minions and hiding back or dashing to your ally.
Blitz Q = 20/19/18/17/16 sec.”

Blitzcrank hook means instant death on you if you get hit and your ADC as well meaning if blitz can find one good hook angle in lane it's usually game over for you. Be careful of his flash hook and flash E combo to set up ganks and for early invades. Try to bully him level 1 and bait out a hook to get some damage in but otherwise this matchup is miserable. Would recommend banning or dodging”

If hooks don't come until lvl 3 / lvl 4, he cant hook if it doesn't also pull you under tower, or else you'll smack him into grey screen pretty reliably
can always make late-game scary though, as one misplaced teammate is a lost game if he gets a solid pick.”

iveye says “Blitzcrank is another hook champion but his hook mainly could spell death to targets he snatches no matter how tanky you could be. Your job to to be the barrier but also to not get hooked yourself by playing in minion waves. Him pulling you into him team and not having to get a little out of position like a Nautilus or Thresh hook means a hook tends to be a 99% chance of death or a terrible trade. Blitzcrank can miss all hooks but that one single hook that does land can throw your lane so don't ego a bad Blitz with 50/50 dodging hooks.”
0
mellorwastaken says “don't greed E and use it for dodging Q. If he grabs you its kinda over since his E cancels yours so just dont waste E randomly. If he grabs your adc most of the times you cant do much unless you are somehow ahead and you can look to kill his adc.”

Sorakas says “Rune: Unsealed Spellbook
Soraka struggles to sustain during the laning phase against Blitzcrank. If your ADC is hit by Blitzcrank’s Q in the early levels, Soraka’s heals likely won’t be enough to keep them alive, especially if the enemy builds anti-heal. The matchup becomes slightly easier once you have your ultimate, but even then, impeccable positioning is essential to avoid getting caught and to keep your ADC safe.”

DynHoyw says “Blitzcrank is the good ol' braindead one-button support. Similar to Morgana he'll play around his Q, always trying to find a window. You can try to juke his pull with your speedy E, or escape with Ghost + E (+ R if necessary), but that'd be a huge waste of resources, specially early on.”
0
GG Cannon says “The silence from his ult and the chain CC he can give alone paired with his teammates, depending on who they are, can mean that a single Q from him that hits you will almost always result in your death.
Try to stay out of reach and only fight when he misses. Always be aware of his position and how long has it been since he tried to hook.”

cyb3r1a says “Take guardian in runes. Hard to play vs because if he hooks you once you are usually dead. Play behind minions and only trade with max range Q's if he has his Q up. If he used his Q and missed you have a 20 second window to punish him and do extended trades with him with auto - Q - power chord.”

T1vladimir says “The most important ability is QTips yet costs a lot & has a long CD. If he misses, you can engage. Keep dashes or dodges whenever his QTips is available. Try to read his positioning & ward around to deny his QTips. After Lvl.6 he will definitely try to pull someone to RTips+ETips, so mind your position & only be aggressive when you have the upper hand.”

gizemdeniz says “Since we can actually melt the tanks pretty well, BC shouldn't be a problem for us either.

We must be mindful not to be caught by CC, all the time.”

Fenreee says “|||SUPPORT||| I will be using this page as a general matchup guide for hook supports in lane. Blitzcrank specific information will be written near the end. Hook champions have two major limitations: 1. they are melee, and 2. they cannot hook through the wave. This means that they will be forced to play beside the wave and have trouble walking up to the wave without getting AA'd, and therefore will resort to playing around bushes as their main power-position. The main way we counter hook supports is by using our range-advantage to shove the minion wave, as this will create a minion advantage, which is tough to fire skillshots through, aswell as move the wave past the bushes and grant you bush-control. Lvl 1, your main objective is looking for ways to control the middle bush on the botlane, and try to shove for lvl 2. The main threat is going to be a hook, and therefore i recommend starting Q, and lining your Q in such a path that you're essentially creating a tripwire that the enemy ADC cannot pass through to follow the hook. If you get to the wave first, or the hook support is simply bad at pressuring the lvl 1, you can also use Q to waveclear. At lvl 6, watch out for Blitzcranks R. Assume he will use it in his hook sandwich, and stay out of the radius so you can shield your ADC when they get hooked. Use your R to block followup from the ADC or jungler, and hold it a bit if you're not in danger, as you can use it to heal your ADC and very often turn the fight.”

zotet says “Blitz crank is extremely similar to Nautilus, Pyke and Thresh in the sense that he can pull you in and make it harder to stay alive. He is a very tanky unit and can get high damage on you even without an ADC. Beware of his location and don't let him sneak up on you.”

aRhesty says “A good blitz will make you remember you have low base HP and no mobility. Has the greatest chance to ruin your game if you aren't on top. However, late game you should have enough movespeed to dodge his hook, and he hasn't been very good for a while.”

DixonTheGuideMaker says “Blitzcrank may try to steal or delay your Junglers first buff. A ward in the river at 1:25 is a good way of knowing if he’s going to Hook Rocket Grab(Q) it or not. If he shows on the ward, make sure the monster is pulled outwards so he cannot easily land his Q. If you’re without Flash or a dash, do not put yourself in unnecessary danger. Avoid pushing, playing too far forward or playing overly aggressive when Blitzcrank’s Q is up.”

M4DN355 says “As long as you or your ADC don't get hit by Blitzcrank's Q, laning phase should be easy, although Blitzcrank's E can completely negate Pyke's escape and engage, but can be played around if played well. Later on, Blitzcrank's R can stop Pyke from using his abilities for a moment and can cancel his Q charge if he's too close, so make sure to stay far away from him and focus on his allies in teamfights.”

babyyspace says “Blitz is a massive threat due to his E causing knock up when he attacks you in anyway and also due to being able to hook over walls. Always wait for them to use there hook before attempting to procc shield.

RoseOfInnistrad says “Usually if you play vertically in lane, Blitzcrank hooking you means you get a flash or more from the enemy bot lane. Sit on top of your ADC unmounted and you can W at him if he or his ADC walks up too far. Otherwise just be aware of potential roam timers, and outscale him.”

Maxwell_Shaco says “With fast reaction times and management of box CDs you can basically give anyone a morgana shield since you can make blitz hook your box instead of the intended target.
If you Q immediately as you a split second before you get hooked, this will cancel the pull.
Blocking a blitz hook basically turns him into a creep so this gives you a window of opportunity or grace.”

Both Spellthieves and Relic shield are good in this case but i prefeer Relic Shield. Get E at lvl 2 to block Q>E combos. ”

This ability can catch Yuumi during You and Me! animation, refreshing the cooldown, as well as when Yuumi is detached from You and Me! also refreshing the cooldown. Blitzcrank also has his ultimate, Static Field, which silences, refreshing You and Me! cooldown and shredding all shields, countering Bop 'n' Block and Summon Aery. Blitzcrank's Power Fist is a point and click basic attack that knocks up enemies, refreshing You and Me! cooldown too. In general, blitzcrank is a huge threat, having 3 ways to counter Yuumi's kit.”

revu says “[ROAMING SUPPORT]
This matchup difficuly depends on how well you can dodge his Q, which is pretty predictable usually. Be ready to burn your flash before Q hits you and not after. If he grabs your adc, Q enemy adc for a disengage. If laning is no hope, leave your adc and look for roams”

Gobomo says “I may get a little bit of dissent by putting Blitzcrank in even, but he's honestly not that hard of a matchup. It's very skill based, as he's pretty much nothing if he doesn't have hook up. At level 1, try to juke his hook or otherwise stay behind minions, and immediately go in to Q-Auto. You can do this twice before he gets it back up - your Q is on an 11 second cooldown, while his is on a 20 second cooldown. Levels 2 and 3 aren't much different unless you're unfortunate enough to get hooked, as all they really do is give him a bit of speed to catch you off guard and get a knock up to follow up on his hook. He's vulnerable without his abilities up, so take advantage of that. He'll likely roam to gank a lot, so you want to gank more effectively by using your chimes and portals.”

neuroplasticity says “
The cheesiest of all hook supports and one of the most unpleasent matchups for Nami as one successful hook usually equals death.
You can look to bubble the Blitzcrank if they are running straight at you but more often than not you're better off using E to speed yourself/your teammate due to Aqua Prisons cast time locking you in place.
Do yourself a favour and flash the hook if you know it will hit. It hurts my eyes seeing players get hooked and flashing out afterwards with just a sliver of health left. Just flash the hook and preserve your HP.
He does have steep mana costs and a low mana pool so a missed hook punishes Blitz just as much as you getting hit. His hook also has a 20 second cooldown early on so make sure you step up and punish them for missing it.
Rushing boots usually is the best way to deal with Blitzcrank. Also, ward the river so your team can spot roams early.
You do outscale Blitzcrank heavily so if you manage to make it through lane unharmed you're usually in a good spot as long as you keep track of Blitz later on so he cannot find easy picks from Fog of War.

PicklePantsLOL says “Always keep the wave near your tower as it will prevent him from all-in'ing you and it will also allow you to farm peacefully in the lane. As long as you avoid his Q, you will have an upper-hand in this lane.
Blitzcrank poses no threat to you once his Q has been used up and is on cooldown. It has a long cooldown early on so use the window to harass him and his lane partner. Every Q missed by him is an opportunity for you to get a lead on him.
Blitzcrank will most of the time require two all-ins to be killed. This is because of his Passive Shield has to be broken first. He will definitely try to bait you in with this so avoid over-extending while all-in'ing him and only continue with the all-in if you have a number and health advantage on him.
In team fights, Blitzcrank will look to separate a target from the enemy team by using his Q, and then killing that target with his team. Keep the blind spots over walls warded and protect your main carry at all cost or else that one Q might lose you the game.”

Doglightning says “take barrier. 2v2 not that bad just poke but any jungle gank will be your death. Later on you have to be careful where you ult because ha can wait to hook when you tele back to the original location. Banshee's is a decent item vs him if enemy team has ap.”

I have won against him before but only against very new Blitzcranks; a half decent one will be a nightmare and you will be under tower all game. This is a good ban choice as well, if you don't properly ward bushes it is pretty much impossible to do anything in lane. Also, be aware of the beginning of the game to NOT stand near the dragon pit or entrance bushes; it is a common Blitzcrank cheese strat to pull someone through the wall to kill them.”

Luiscencias says “Well here's yet another pull and delete support. You only have 1 ban and I promise you no matter which pull champ you ban if someone wants to pick a pull champ into you they will. Better practice your skillshot dodging. Seriously, if he pulls you and you don't have flash, you are dead. You could play perfectly for 10 minutes then get pulled once and get super behind. Get to the midgame as even as you can and you will be fine as long as you keep respecting his pull.”

Hanjaro says “Hook champions are deadly for Lux, even through the use of aftershock, if she misses a binding, or they're already in melee range of her and manage to get their cc off, she can be bursted down easily.
Abuse their hook CDs, and their melee range, stay behind minions, and be inconsistent with your movement!”

Blitz' hook and knockup can pull her out mid dash, incurring a cooldown on her W and resulting in her death.”

lenithebot says “If Blitzcrank hooks you then it would just be a free engage for you since you can just pulverize the adc and him and then headbutt the adc for an easy kill. Although be careful if your adc gets hooked then you would be forced to go in to try and disengage or turn the fight around especially if your adc does not have flash. Overall to you blitzcranck is not a big threat but to your adc he would be a very big one.”

SorakaMainsDiscord says “Blitzcrank is a coin toss. if you keep yourself positioned behind your carry or minions, then you shouldn't have to worry about him.

Playing against him and doing this will help you get a feel for how long you can do that before he gets his hook back. Play in your minions and poke. If you have an Ezreal, let him play up, he can always escape Blitz Q instantly with his E. It makes this lane incredibly easy if you have an Ezreal.”

KillMeKillMe says “If you can dodge the pull every time, you should be ok, if you can't you're probably boned. Same applies to your adc. If you don't know who to ban, this would be an easy choice.
If you do end up against him, Get boots early, ideally tear of the goddess, basic boots, then upgrade to ionian boots as soon as possible. Maybe even get the boots before the tear of the goddess if you don't have enough gold and you're really having trouble avoiding his ability.
In extreme cases you could even consider getting boots of swiftness if they seem to be going after you and you're really having trouble dodging it.
The thing to remember though, his pull is on a very long cooldown, especially early game, so if he misses try to punish him for it by either hurting him or his teammate. or taking hits on him or a turret to get stacks on your starting item.”

Guoblide says “ Blitzcrank is a pretty easy and straightforward matchup for Braum as long as the Braum player knows what he is doing. Blitzcrank is a tanky Catch support than specializes in getting picks with his Rocket Grab. He doesn't deal much damage but easily makes up for it with his amazing peel and pick potential. Blitzcrank is a major threat throughout all stages of the game due to his Rocket Grab however once he uses it he is pretty useless. His Levels 1-3 are unmatched and his Level 6 powerspike is good into a few matchups. His Level 9 power spike is strong as well as it is when he maxes out his Rocket Grab and brings the cooldown to 16 seconds. In lane, Braum should play safe until Level 3 where all of his defensive abilities come up. The most important thing to keep in mind when laning against Blitzcrank is positioning. Braum and his ADC should try to stand together behind the minion wave in a way where it blocks of them from Blitzcrank. If Blitzcrank throws out a Rocket Grab then it will hit a minion instead of them. Once Blitzcrank puts his Rocket Grab on cooldown then the lane gets absurdly easy for the Braum player. Throw out Winter's Bite, walk up in front of the wave, zone of the ADC, pretty much anything to make the enemy ADC miss CS for the entire 20 seconds. When Rocket Grab comes back up stand next to your ADC behind the wave and bait it out again. Standing in front of you ADC is important because if Blitzcrank somehow gets a sneaky Rocket Grab through then it will hit Braum and not the ADC. Braum can just throw up an Unbreakable to block the damage from Blitzcrank and his ADC and Stand Behind Me to an ally minion or ADC to get to safety. After Level 6 Braum should look to all-in the enemy ADC with Glacial Fissure when Rocket Grab is on cooldown for an easy kill.”

Spection says “For beginner Soraka players, this lane is a nightmare. You need to give him a lot of respect. When he blows his Q, that's a free opportunity to engage. It has high mana costs and a long cooldown. Learning how to dodge this ability is essential, and this lane becomes far easier with a little bit of time and practice. Common counterpick. ”

SigtheOutcast says “Blitz is interesting because he is not too hard to dodge and is rarely played, but when he is played I noticed he tends to either feed hard and then land like 2 hooks during important teamfights that saves them all, or he stomps hard then falls off because he gets cocky. Very, very annoying but not a huge threat. Stay behind minions and smack him every time he shows his dumb chrome-dome.”

DanNS12 says “Against Blitzcrank stand behind minions to avoid getting hooked and start relic shield because he has a lot of kill pressure early game. Don't focus on Blitzcrank in 2v2 fights because of his passive shield focus his ADC. Avoid facechecking bushes because Blitzcrank will look to get picks on overextending allies always keep your Jg warded and when Blitzcrank's hook is down he loses a lot of pressure so try to play around it when it's on cooldown.”

Playing against Blitz is boring and scary at the same time. He hard counters you: even if you play behind minions or at max range, he can just run toward you with his W and/or flash.

A nice counter to his grab is to immediately cast your E towards him as soon as you understand you'll be catched: if you're at max range, he'll be stunned for two seconds, giving you time to run away (or kill him).

Add the steak to a hot pan, then cook for 6 minutes for medium-rare, or to your liking, turning every minute
For more flavour, try one or a combination of the following…
Halve a garlic clove and rub it over the steak every time you turn it
Rub the steak with a knob of butter – the sweetness from the butter will make it taste divine!
Or create a herb brush by tying woody herbs like thyme or rosemary to the handle of a wooden spoon and brush it over the steak every minute or so
Once cooked to your liking, rest the steak on a plate that can collect all the lovely juices for 2 minutes
Carve with a nice sharp carving knife, then serve with the resting juices drizzled on top
Everyone has their favourite ways to eat steak – with good old chips and a crisp, green salad, with pepper or horseradish sauces, or even a simple fresh salsa verde to cut right through it. Whatever you choose, we’re sure your lucky guest will love you for it.

Discord231 says “El terror de los adc, debes jugar muy atento a su Q, la cual no tiene una animación que te permita esquivarla fácil, asi que a menos que tengas un adc de early que pueda responder fácil a algún error tuyo, no juegues con Filo de Roba Hechizos, así no te le debes poner a melee. Una vez acabada la fase de líneas, el se volverá inútil, mas si no lleva Solari, si tu adc tiene mal early juega a la defensiva, que luego tu serás un monstruo en su contra. ”

However, if he does grab you, don't panic. Calmly shield yourself and direct your entire attention to the ADC. I would consider bringing exhaust into this matchup so that you can catch them off guard with a really good comeback if you or your ADC gets grabbed.”

Jexeff says “Another mid-tier matchup. If you try to land a hook out in the open and miss, you are going to leave yourself vulnerable since you have an inactive duration and become an easy target. For the most part if you get hooked, you will be relatively okay if you are able to activate your aftershock. However, if your partner gets hooked, it will be a little harder to survive. The best way to handle his hook is to block it for your AD and immediately hook at the blitzcrank and flay once your hook is complete. This interaction can be found in the Tips and Tricks section later in this guide. By doing so, you will prevent his power first from hitting you which is the second part of his CC chain. On the bright side, his hook has a relatively long cooldown so make sure to play around it while it is down to get the most out of this matchup.”

0
Wounds2 says “Playing against Blitzcrank can be annoying, but it is a very winnable matchup. Bait out his Q and quickly W away or E to your ADC. His Q cooldown is very long, so you need to position aggresively and threat an engage for about 15 seconds. During this time, look to trade or harass with Q since his main source of power is gone. If you get hooked into his team late game, you can just press R and run through his whole team (assuming you don't instantly die).”

Navn says “Respect the hook, and if it looks like it becomes nearly undodgable, get ready to Polymorph his lane partner. (If you get pulled into range of his partner, you will Poly him and this will stop the follow-up damage). Play around minion wave sizes, Bone Plating and Guardian.”

Xeptron says “Blitzcrank isn't a threat t o thresh unless the blitzcrank is super good, as always. The only ability you have to be cautious of is his grab.

Recomiendo runas defensivas si tienen complicaciones contra este personaje.”

Sunedayz says “Very feast or famine. It's the hardest hook to dodge. Even if you manage your minion wave properly the added range on it can sometimes catch you out. The bigger problem is that if your ADC gets hooked pre-6 there's not much you can do to peel them. Your tornado won't save them unless it's fully charged and aimed at the enemy ADC. Once his hook is down go poke him out.”

DracoMeteor_ says “Blitz is one of those Champions I despise in the bot lane. He has hook, a knock up, and a Silence. Its super annoying. But he is a fair threat against Immobile ADC's like Jhin. Blitz has a lot of Burst potential that Yuumi has a hard time countering. ”

RECOMMENDED APPROACH: Passive Defense.”

Guoblide says “Laning against Blitzcrank is very straight foward and, honestly, kind of boring. Tell your laner to position so that the minion wave is between them and Blitzcrank. Then, position yourself in front of the ADC so that the Blitzcrank can only Rocket Grab you and not your ADC. If he does Rocket Grab you then Facebreaker him into his ADC and hard win the 2v2 with your ADC. The Blitzcrank Rocket Grabbing you you is very good for you because it puts you on top of him and his ADC which you want because you can easily out-damage and out-sustain him. If he doesn't Rocket Grab you then have your ADC focus on farm and look to roam and make plays around the map. Keep in mind that Static Field can destroy your Haymaker shield so try to use it after he Static Fields you. Look to engage on Blitzcrank and his ADC or deny CS when Rocket Grab is down. Him not having Rocket Grab is very bad for him so try to make as much pressure as you can during this short time span. Note when his Rocket Grab will come back up so you dont get caught out and hooked into tower. Rocket Grab cooldown is 20/19/18/17/16.”

Jovy says “Blitzcrank can be tough to play against because Janna is so squishy. He's not very tanky and he's melee, so if you can poke him down there's a good chance that you can kill him.

Kilo Khaos says “Blitzcrank may be obnoxious person to lane against, but as long as you're mindful of when you can and cannot engage you will have no trouble. Try to punish missed hooks, and if you get hooked use this lack of follow up on his part to counter-engage.”

Tauricus2017 says “This matchup depends heavily on your ability to dodge skillshots, since the only bad thing he can do to you is to grab you with Rocket Grab (Q) which is dodgeable. Stay behind minions to be safe. Try to calculate his mana bar since this ability costs 100 mana and first few levels (1-5) of the game Blitzcrank mana pool won't be higher then 400 and also this spell has 20 seconds cooldown which lowers by 1 seconds each time he levels up this ability . Meaning that with right calculation of his mana bar, good dodging of skillshots, calculation of his cooldowns and also poke so you stay rich with your passive, Blitzcrank can be one of the easiest matchups you can face.”

i_like_anime_thighs says “This doesn't only apply to Blitz. Hard CC counters Yuumi, but combine that with being pulled close to the enemies and you WILL die. Either wait for those champs to use their hooks/stuns/roots before hopping off your laner or bait them yourself, being ready to W away.”

Taric Support says “This Match-up is quite boring. You'll have to play defensive and stay behind minions because if you don't, then Blitz will grab you and kill you. Play defensive and punish if they overextend. When in the middle of the lane it is easy to engage on Blitz, because of the fact that he is only good when he unexpectedly grabs someone and you should use that as an advantage, by engaging with a stun on him or the opposing ADC. ”

sashadidntwalk says “Again, similar in a way to Thresh and Pyke with his Q and damage in early game, use your W the same way you'd use it against those two and make sure not to get hooked yourself, you can try and swallow him first before he uses his Q or any other ability, in the end game if your team isn't losing he shouldn't be a big threat to you so just make sure he doesn't Q any of your squishy teammates.”
0
Reason97 says “Blitzcrank hook's have the same affect as your stuns in the sense that if he lands them, his team tends to auto focus whoever he caught. On top of the danger of being pulled into his team, his knock-up and silence also hinder all your attempts to escape, so give him a healthy respect. ”

When you don't want to get pulled it can be irritating but all it takes is hiding in minion waves and you're good.”

unrealPR0D16Y says “I mean it doesn't matter who you're playing, seeing a Blitz lock in before (or even after) you is a terrifying sight (especially if you STILL lock in Jhin if he picks before you).

PrettyPinkPutin says “Important note: His E will hit you even if you use R to dodge it.
Blitz is a support that does high damage and provides quite some CC, his shield break on R can leave you more vulnerable than you'd think to be, CC cancel his Q with your E most of the time as you'd find your death in their team most of the time, it's also his only really damaging ability besides R.”

DestroyerGaming says “Em seu early game, blitz não é uma ameaça tão grande para thresh, utilize sempre seu W nos arbustos para ver se ele está lá, é recomendável que você avise para o seu adc te ajudar a wardar a lateral da sua lane enquanto você warda a entrada da lane para evitar gank.”

Kireihana says “Definitely the hardest matchup I've personally experienced. One slip-up is all it takes to let the enemy snowball out of control. To avoid this, simply swallow your pride and have your ADC farm behind tower so you have a safe place to stand behind minions (standing behind minions in the middle of the lane is not safe enough). His hook is super long range and fast, rendering you unable to dodge it reliably. Play it safe and don't take any chances with the robot.”

MeatFeast says “You just have to know how to play around Blitz and it's an easy lane. Sadly part of it is reliant on your ADC also which is out of your hands. Use the minion wave to block his skill shot and keep the bushes warded so you can track him at all times and position effectively. If Blitz hooks you, just Q him and walk away. If Blitz hooks your ADC, instantly E >Q>W onto their ADC. Your damage is bigger than Blitz so you will win the trade and come off better most of the time. Always be wary of being hooked under tower, even when you've got the lead. Post level 6, your team fighting is infinitely better.”
0
Zefirez says “Recommended rune set: Conqueror.
Well all know the hook play. He hooks you or adc, and they get free ticket to base.
Pantheon however is one catch Blitz may regret. When he hooks you, you usually have enough time to pop your E before getting grabbed. Aim it torwards his adc, but take into accunt you'll be in front of blitz when you land. So torwards his adc from that position. This will let you negate a ton of abuse. Then jump on adc and start doing damage.
Staying at 4 stacks of passive, so you can do empowered w after shielding their initial damage is the optimal method.”

Xelaadryth says “Sometimes you want him to pull you. If the enemy can't chain cc you and kill you before you get out of his knockup/silence, take a free grab into the enemy team to ult. It's very satisfying to ult when you see the pull begin; don't ult after because he can silence and chain stun you. You can also kite him with your Q since his movespeed is fast enough to run into your range while you stay out of his range if he's chasing you, especially easy if you have Rylai's. Energy ball helps you dodge pulls as well.”

The best way to dodge hook is to put minions between yourself and the enemy or stun them with your gold card when they dash in range. This way, your adc or support can burst them down, or your Vi onetrick Divebomb Dylan can divebomb the stunned enemy. Other options are to switch summoner spells to cleanse or just flash out. ”

Buuuut his grab is on a high cooldown and 2/3 grabs depletes completely his mana pool. Play around his Q cd, switch between aggressive and passive gamestyle until you can poke him down enough to activate his passive. Once that's down, if he doesn't recall he's pretty much dead.”

doubte says “this is another hard match up for bard. this is because his grab brings you into the enemy team and allows them to kill you instantly. there's ways to beat blitzcrank though as he's similar to pyke. harass early and dodge his hooks. stand right in the minion wave and keep the minion wave close to your turret. start coin over the standard spelltheifs as it's safer and allows you to get the vision upgrade around the same time you would normally.”

Saethwyr says “Taric is in a special state of being a champion who you Dont want to pull while most people don't realise that. the better part is that he makes that the same for the carry. if you see a blitz pull heading towards you or the carry, immediately line up a stun and engage on either him or the carry, depending on who's closest.”

SawyerNelson says “Blitzcrank's threat in lane can negate the laning advantage that Lux has, if Blitzcrank's hook threat is actually meaningful.

MasutaKokoBot says “A good blitzcrank player can become a huge pain in the neck, pulling your ADC away from you, out of your range to heal them. That can give the enemy the opportunity to get the kill. However, counter play is to stay behind minions and use your Silence and Q to zone the enemies off. Banshees Veil can also help prevent them from hooking you into their team.”

NirvanaBunny says “Blitzcrank can be tough to play against because Janna is so squishy. But good news is that he's not very tanky and he's melee, so if you can poke him down there's a good chance that you can kill him.

Lonxu says “Skill match-up.
Stay behind minions. Don't just stand in the brush as a smart Blitz will hook you, even without vision.
If you always stay behind minions or plants you are in a good spot.
Of course the really good Blitzcranks will actually initiate with like flash E instead or try to juke the root then E you. So that's why you need to have them poked down enough before that is even an possibility.
Going even in the lane is okay as playing Blitz in 5v5 team fights is really rough I think. You'll be much more useful than him usually.
So one cool trick is to like cast plant in front of you and then bait Blitz into hooking you. It will just kill the plant instead.
Also if he misses the hook, PUNISH HIM WITH POKE.”
