Learn how to play with Blitzcrank with these essential tips.
Tags:
All
Follow up the instant Blitzcrank lands his Q hook — the grab stuns for 0.65 seconds and can be chained into his E's 1-second knockup, giving you a long CC window to secure a kill before the target can react.
Basic Team Fight Skirmish
Expect little pressure from Blitzcrank right after he whiffs his Q — it's his main threat and has a long cooldown early, so play more freely and expect enemies to look for a trade while it's down.
Basic Lane Phase Skirmish
Position to the side of Blitzcrank rather than directly behind him when he's looking for a hook — his Q pulls targets to a spot in front of him, so standing beside him lets you attack pulled enemies immediately instead of walking around his body.
Team Fight Skirmish
Push to hit level 2 alongside Blitzcrank in the bot lane — his Q into E is one of the strongest level 2 all-ins in the game, and reaching it before the enemy duo gives you a real shot at an early kill or forcing summoner spells.
Lane Phase
Time your burst damage to land right after Blitzcrank's R — it destroys all nearby enemy shields before dealing damage and applying a brief silence, stripping defensive tools from enchanters like Karma or Janna just before your damage hits.
Team Fight
Be ready to protect Blitzcrank right after his W ends — he's slowed by 30% for 1.5 seconds once Overdrive wears off, leaving him exposed if he used the speed boost to roam or engage.
Team Fight Skirmish
In teamfights, call out which enemy you want Blitzcrank to hook — this helps him commit his Q to high-value targets like immobile carries instead of pulling in a tank that wants to be engaged on anyway.
Advanced Team Fight
Don't assume Blitzcrank is about to die once he drops low in a fight — his passive shields him for 30% of his max mana whenever he takes damage down to 30% health, which can noticeably extend how long he survives.
