i agree, his w basically counters itself...
BTW, for people who have not been playing for years... Blitz used to have this same kinda interaction with his W...
HOWEVER, the speed boost was not one that degraded of time. You got the full movement speed boots for the whole duration before the slow kicked in.
As it currently stand the new skill has you move about half the distance of flash at a pretty good pace... then you are normal speed... then BAM you are as slower than if you got hit by a Rylias slow.
This makes using Blitz W painful... Lulu doesn't pay for her LONG movement speed boost, Nami gets free movement for everyone on EVERYTHING, Kayle now has a much better Speed boost,
The real problem is that this pushes blitz into even more of a polar play pattern around his Q. In the past your W allowed you to still be somewhat effective if you missed Q.
Now you are forced to play around only the Q... and this nerf has just about out right killed AD jungle blitz.
Better nerf blitz again.
Meanwhile thresh.
IKR!!!! the slow after the duration is SOOOOOO counter productive, and makes you want to never cast W. There is not 1 other spell in the ENTIRE game that is counter productive, in that it makes you weaker just for using a spell. You should want to cast your spells, not be hesitant on if it will even help you. IDK how many times it has killed me, cause now its a shitty spell to try and run with as it SLOWS YOU DOWN. WHY THE FUCK would I cast a spell that makes me run SLOWER when I need to run FASTER!
Blitz already has a big enough penalty on his Q for not landing it, does he really need to be slowed after W ends to? The way I see it is that thresh needs to have a penalty for not landing his abilities as well. Like.
Hook: Missed hook DOUBLE the CD Flay: missed flay, cut soul stacks in half cause why not? his abilities are just as game breaking as blitz are, yet he has no penalties for not using them correctly.
LOL I main Blitz, and I still get that same results after the W nerf. It's not that bad as you think. Maybe you guys don't build him right. Check my match history.
