How to play against Blitzcrank

Lane and teamfight rules that hold regardless of your pick.

In lane and in teamfights

1. Stand behind minions and punish missed Q by walking forward while his threat is down.
2. Keep the wave between you and him instead of trading in open lane space.
3. Control objective entrances with vision before walking in; blind contests give his Q the first move.
4. Abandon unsafe river fights when you cannot enter together, then take the opposite side of the map.
5. Protect carries by keeping a front body between them and Q before objectives start.

Where Blitzcrank is weak

Exploit these in draft and in lane.

• Blitzcrank's threat is hook-centered, so minion cover and spread formations make him contribute little sustained pressure.
• Pulling durable frontliners can backfire because Blitzcrank drags enemy engage tools directly into his team.
