Blitzcrank's E
As One for All has played out this weekend there have been various odd builds for champions so they don't get walled out by items, that's all fine. The most troubling build though is Full AD Blitzcrank. The 1 and only reason Full AD Blitzcrank exists is because, for some reason, someone thought it was a good idea to allow his E to deal +100% of his AD. I watched a Bitzcrank 100-0 a tower by himself and without minions because every E was removing close to 40% of the tower's HP with additional Trinity Force damage. 3 auto attacks and the tower died, shortly after the inhibitor died by the same Blitzcrank, all in a matter of 15-20 seconds. Sure this is a gimmick build because most Blitzcrank just go tank or AP, but the fact this build works to the level is does is insane and should be looked at.
My Suggested Actions :
- Prevent the E from hitting structures, similar to how you did it to Trundle and several other champions. The double damage the E gives is way to crazy if the above scenario can happen that easily. Granted this action means Blitzcrank still does crazy damage to everything else.
- Change the damage to normal values (though be low values) or do damage based off his base AD only, 100% of his AD.
- Remove the double damage. Honestly if you do a traditional build, you don't notice the E damage bonus anyways, it's only effective in AD Blitzcrank for the above reason.
