A number of reasons on why Blitzcrank's broken kit needs a nerf

People get salty and cry about Blitz being OP but here is an in--depth analysis about Blitz's broken Kit.

First, his Q (Rocket Grab) aside from the INSANE damage it deals at the start anyway, 100% AP ratios....are you serious? At rank 2 it already deals 135 but I'm guessing it doesn't matter when Blitz tosses on his ol' fancy cap item 3089 right? Toss this on and carry around your item 3157 and he already gains armor and he already deals 330 BONUS damage. That's right, that huge number is not even including the already broken growths. The cost of this insane damage? 100 mana. Yep and it doesn't change either, just a flat rate of 100.

Next his E, the "power fist" ooh scary. Yeah it's pretty scary because of the 100% AD plus the fact it resets his attack timer meaning after getting hit by a DOUBLE DAMAGE PUNCH he hits you again...instantly...oh and it only costs 25 mana. Get beaten to bloody pulp for a low cost! Oh and the low cool down makes it 10X worse.

However even a combo of these moves is just mercy compared to his insane ultimate. 30 second cool down, 100% ap damage, and it silences you. The cost? Again just 100 mana.

Is riot ever going to notice that Blitz obviously has problems?

If a Blitzcrank does decide to have some fun with a item 3100 item 3089 build you might want summoner 7 summoner 21 but its not ridiculously scary. His QER combo won't kill you unless hes extremely fed with item 3100 item 3089 and you decided to build item 1058 item 1001 at the same time, If you build anything remotely close to "damage" his combo wont be up twice in one fight, and if you survive his combo you defeat him. Also, BLITZ HAS 0 SUSTAINED DAMAGE. if you have 2000 health and item 1053 you'll use him as a health pot. He also wont be extremely tanky and extremely painful at the same time, as item 3157 item 3083 isn't a smart thing to build on him. Hes strong but hes not ridiculously strong. item 3100 item 3089 possesses no cdr, and item 3174 item 3025 wont reward him with the damage he needs to kill you. **I do agree with you his q's base damage is extremely high, should prob be reduced a little.**It's also not easy to get a good boost for your Q and E at the same time, as theyre different ratio boosts. No, item 3146 wont make his Q and E op at the same time, it'll just be a waste of gold. His R is his main source of damage, which can be extremely high, but he often goes support, and will buy item 3401 item 2049 item 3050 item 3364 before damage. Don't complain if a blitz builds item 3100 item 3040 item 3027 item 3089 item 3027 item 3027 with baron buff, 5 dragons and Full Scaling AP Runes because do that on any ap champ and theres something you could complain about. Q base damage is only broken thing about blitzcrank, everything else is pretty ok imo

He's fine and if your team is really behind he's pretty useless, unless the other team muffs up a lot.

Was going to counter argue but the extreme blindness of your post tells me you haven't even considered and don't care about the truth/middle ground

Blitz can't make plays just pull people and hope his team can kill them. if he pulls the wrong person its over.
