Can we make BlitzCrank what he should have been long ago?

Make his Q have a much shorter cooldown and have the range increased by 300 but it pulls first hit. Not just enemies. It no longer goes through a crowd of allies to pull enemies. It now pulls first hit.

How does this change him? Clutch pulls on enemies will be much harder in teamfights but very doable with 1200 range pulls. Saving allies will be so clutch for him now. Like uber clutch. He will require extraudinary skill.

We already went into the "forced interaction with allies" thing this season with the introduction of Bard and Kalista. Before them, you couldnt force an ally to move at all. Now that we finally got over that taboo, let's get blitz to be the all around savage he was meant to be.

Ugh, that seems miserable. I usually like increased skill caps and versatility, but this change would mean that a teammate jumping in at the wrong time would swing Blitz's Q from a fight-defining play to a fight-throwing play. There'd be way too much variance.

Difference between this and bard/kalista/taliyah is their forced displacements are ults. Can only troll your team sometimes. 1200 range blitz Q on a 15 second or less CD? No thanks.

More range and less cd? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
He already pulls the first hit so you're point is invalid http://i1.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/000/538/115/852.png

The first ENEMY hit. This would make it first hit, ally or enemy.

It would just make him worse, for allies and enemies too so no.

Is that an argument?
