Blitzcrank Level 1 Buff Grab

What are the best defenses for this?

Currently I usually pray I am playing Leona and can stand in front of the buff and just burn flash to get back over the wall.

Are there better strategies?

If your red side, protecting blue buff, ward the side bush with a ward trinket at 0:58 and have your jungler or ADC ward a little deeper (ramp works) prior to that.

Move as a 4 man (5 if top is willing) to place both wards. Slightly harder the other way around, or doing red buff on blue team because of more area to defend.

If they invade, choose whether to fight or not, if it's just Blitzcrank force him off with your ADC. Leashes are niceties, not necessities. Protecting the buff is more important.

Basically decide if we are going to start a fight at level 1 prior to it spawning?
