So, one of the most interesting changes in the current PBE, is Blitzcranks W.

For those of you living under a rock- http://www.newsoflegends.com/index.php/wip-pbe-3003-blitzcrank-w-rework-changes-to-dr-mundo-evelynn-and-nidalee-36329/

With a larger Attack Speed and Movement Speed boost, that decays over time, do you see this a nerf to his early game, a buff to his late, or is it to early to tell from anything?

I think the attack speed didn't get changed. The duration of the buff got reduced by 3 seconds so it's a nerf to the attack speed portion.

The change is: Buff to his repositioning to land a pull or dodge a critical skillshot. Nerf to chasing/escaping.

I think it's an interesting change. Maybe someone will actually be able to escape him now...

Who cares? All Blitzcrank needs is his Q to be effective.

Wait, so in exchange for a now "Worthless" W, you want less damage for the only thing that matters?

As a blitz player they could remove his W from the game and it wouldnt bother me too much as long as I could still press it to stack item 3070's.

You kidding? Blitz is the best tear farmer in the game, he farms tears from all enemies indiscriminately.

It's a good change. Blitzcrank's escape was too good

More ap blitz rape incoming i guess, you don't need to chase ppl with 2 100% ap ratio skills, the ms boost will make it pretty much impossible for a lot of champions to dodge is Q.

His "C" is not capitalized. "Blitzcrank" is one name.
