Well it blocks Thresh Q, why shouldn't it be blocking blitz Q? Technically it is a projectile because it goes forward through the air. Ahri's Q has is very similar in that it goes forward and comes back, if it blocks Ahri's then it should block Blitz. If it's not a projectile what is it?

What if you attach a string to the stick and throw the stick and then pull it back?

Yeah it is, you aren't moving it with your hands to direct it, its not being held up by you personally. If use an arrow for bow fishing and because its bow fishing its attached to a rope, and I shoot it then its still a projectile.

Yes it is. It has a travel time and a missile speed. Just because it also comes back doesn't make it a projectile.

Ever stuck your hand out a window doing 100+ mph? Wind can stop a hand pretty easy esp one no longer attached to your arm.

Pretty much everything that moves in a line is considered a projectile.

"A projectile is any entity with a velocity that is not classified as a unit (champions, minions, monsters, etc)."

And;

"Moving units are not blocked under any circumstance, including dash abilities. Champion-summoned units, such as Orianna's Command: Attack and Maokai's Sapling Toss, are not considered to be units until they hit the ground - and thus will interact with Wind Wall while en route."

Blitz's fist may be part of his body, but it is used like a harpoon when launched. I don't know about you, but I would count a harpoon as a projectile, whether or not it was attached to a person's body instead of an arm.
