So Blitzcrank, right?

So Blitzcrank, a support who's main source of support is his pull/ knock up/ silence combo which can just kill you late game without any help from the rest of your team. So I frequently play support or adc and I know that going up against a good Blitzcrank is probably your worst nightmare, so I was thinking that maybe his pull should deserve some kind of nerf because honestly, a support should probably not be able to just 100-0 almost anyone on the enemy team. Maybe it could be like thresh hook where when you throw out your hand stays in one spot and the ability doesn't go on cd until you walk a certain distance from it, or wait for a timer to run out on it, maybe even nerf his raw magic damage, because it's honestly ridiculous.

What.

Maybe you weren't watching your HP bar and thought you had full health when you actually had 20%.

How to counter Blitz:

Position properly.
Let the tank be grabbed by Blitz.
Ward every important bush (not at the same time, i mean for the moment)
If you can't see him on the minimap, don't take a stroll in the fog of war.
If he misses his grab during the laning phase, poke him down for 15 seconds. Seriously, he's not much of a threat (he can run up to you and ult, but you should be able to kite him with most adc kits).
Seriously, use number 2 and 5 to give him a shitty early game. If he doesn't get his adc fed, and he doesn't get a lot of assists, he's not going to deal a lot of damage anymore. Besides his grab, he doesn't have much going as a support, so abuse that.
If your support is Leona or Alistar, Blitz grabbing them can be the worst mistake they've ever made. Abuse this.
Blitz loves grabbing squishies. If you want to cheese him, play , build tanky, and bait him. It's a silly tactic, but undeniably hilarious right when the jungler jumps in with all of Blitz's spells on cd.

Blitzcranks problem is that his pull is too strong,while the rest of his kit is too weak. If he grabs you,then you are as good as dead and can't do much about it,he knocks you in the air and silences you and if you manage to survive that he can simply chase you. bonus points if he has a yasuo in his team,that makes the knockup even worse.

But if he misses his grab or grabs the wrong enemy(like the enemy amumu or galio),then he is almost useless.Sure he has a small aoe silence,but thats about it.
