He promotes good initiation based thought if you're actually any smart about the game.

For example, if you have a battle based support like Leona or something and at Level 1, Blitz manages to grab one of you, if both of you don't panic and use Blitz's hook as a free initiation to start fighting, you could turn a Blitz hook around and maybe even manage to kill their ADC.

On the other side of the coin, Blitzcrank needs to know when and who to hook. Don't grab full-health tanks or self-centered AOE champs to grant them free initiations is a REALLY obvious signifier, but also a Blitzcrank needs to know who will most likely immediately die if he does fire a hook. Katarina with Shunpo+Flash+Zhonya's still active? Sure, she's a nice target in that she's squishy and likely to die if hit, but actually hitting her is going to be hard and may turn into a waste of a hook. Half health Garen when your team has a dedicated tank killer? Well why not, he will have trouble escaping and your tank killer can probably destroy Garen fast enough.

See, the only world where Blitzcrank is really toxic is in low level leagues where everyone thinks 1 successful hook=immediate death omgwtfplznerfrito

Complaining about... Blitz? Lol he's a fun mediocre support that can to some fun stuff at the expense of a god awful lane phase / end game

He's got an avoidable skillshot, no dashes and an ult that pushes your lane. There's also that entire thing about having a front line.
