Ezreal's E vs Blitzcrank's Q

Is Ezreal's E supposed to counter Blitzcrank's Q? Everytime I would land my pull on him, Ezreal would E right after my animation on him and it would negate the pull. The pull landed, but he E'd away, is that supposed to happen?

If so, that's completely unfair because I landed the Q, he shouldn't be able to teleport away. I think the same thing happens with Tristana, but I'm not entirely sure.

It does happen but it shouldn't. Trist/Ez can actually press AFTER the hook lands and they negate it. That is just plain BS.

The mechanic is that dashes, especially ones with long cast times, will finish so long as they started channeling before the character was stunned. As a trade off for this, these characters are stunned when they get to their destination.

Blitzcrank's pull applies a stun first, then a pull. The reason Ezreal can escape is that initial stun doesn't stop him from moving. As best as I can tell, Riot considers this an intended interaction, not a bug.
