Can someone rationalize blitzcrank's design to me?

I don't get him. Its a yank and you're 100% dead situation. I don't get how thats good design. I just don't. I had a game vs Blitz/Fortune and there was absolutly fuckall I could do. Nothing. Nada. I dont get it.

Cs behind minions and watch for your low ones to dodge mf q's. Auto blitz when he gets near but cant pull punish him for being useless. Dodge the hooks. Etc

I'm wondering why blitz is ban in platinum and diamond? Sure, Blitz is freelo. That's all. Thresh is more healthy than blitz.

Have you ever played DOTA? The original Blitzcrank (played as support and ganking midlaner) that inspired our robot can 100 to 0 you and gets bonus HP and dmg for every kill. Blitz needs AP to do any dmg and it's easy to dodge his Q

Kind of hard to dodge hooks as Jinx, the projectile is kind of fast for Jinx's slow feet. I still feel like he's really OP man especially with a fortune who can make it even tougher to dodge with her AoE slow.

Edit: Also along those lines even if the general consensus is he isnt OP I still want someone to rationalize his design. Its like he has ONE move thats really good and does so much. I just, I dont get the dodging meteors thing design. 100->0 As a result of one attack with little to no forgivance reeks of bad design.
