You Know What I Love Most About Blitz?

Unlike champions like Malphite, Leona, and Amumu who rely on their teammates' following up on their engage, I have found that Blitzcrank just has to pull a carry to his team and they will pile up on the target like hungry beasts. His playstyle feeds into the bloodthirsty/kill-loving mentality that so many players have in solo queue. I have been able to carry games from the support role by picking out the enemy team's carries and giving them to my team on a silver platter.

TL; DR: Blitzcrank's hook is perfect for solo queue if you pick out the right targets. Hooking a carry to their death is one of the most satisfying experiences I have in this game.

I believe that his Ability Power Ratios mimic those of an Ability Power Assassin, not a Support or, under Riot's categorization, a Tank / Fighter.

iirc blitzcrank is a midlaner and not a support, officially.

You sound surprised. Years ago, you'd see more of Blitz mid than you do now. I think Manamune was pretty core on his mid build back in the day as well as one of the sheen items. I don't remember though...been so long. He could put a hurt on you real bad though.

I didn't even comprehend what that person said. They just stated something, no elaboration. But I mean, it's not a surprise, although I don't think people understand what a 1.0 Ability Power Ratio on a spell can do. I just find it weird, especially to put it on a Pull ability, you'd think that would be overdoing it. But it's long CDR and Mana Cost (I guess) balances it.
