I think it's time to lower the slow on blitzcrank overdrive

It was used as an easy getaway and made Blitz nearly impossible to pin down if he was caught out, even if it was because he made a bad hook. They changed it so it'd be used more for positioning rather than escape.

I agree It was stupid for everyone before the slow when the robo was just sprinting everywhere and you couldn't escape him It became stupid for blitz when he can't even outrun someone with no mobility because the slow is so crippling

There has to be a balance between the two situations right?

buy boots of swiftness, reduces the speed loss.

Blitz still performs just fine as he is meant to, grabbing someone and fucking them over badly.

He isn't meant to be inescapable/uncatchable. Better positioning and desicionmaking and your fine.
