I don't care which team he is on, there should be no spell that lands which is an instant kill... a spell, that isn't even an ult, that you spam every 4 seconds and win every teamfight in which you land 5% of your pulls. It's just stupid.
Get a tank on your team that can take advantage of being pulled into their group (Amumu, Leona, Malphite, Galio, etc)and have that tank stand in front of the squishies. If Blitz pulls in your engage it can end VERY badly for the enemy team. Please don't hate on champions, learn how to counter their strengths and weaknesses.
no its not..theres so many counters to him and his pull takes up lots of mana.
Well then dont play.
hey man, so i've been playing blitz off and on for a few years and he's fun. he's far from an instant kill. but i find having played him for so long i can get inside blitz players heads and dodge him more easily. really knowing the range of his pull is key. in reality aside from a with a pick team blitz isn't that useful. he brings a lot less utility than say thresh with all of his cc - but he has a few pretty standard counters.
firstly is blitz is countered by warding. if you can see the pull coming - then it's a lot easier to dodge. control the bush! secondly is mobility - don't be so predictable in your movements. if you watch the pro's they move around a lot to bait out the blitz pull. third - winions are great shields, use them effectively.
alistar is a pretty hard counter to blitz. he pulls you. you knock each other up. and you're ali so you walk out still tanky. or if you're adc is any kind of paying attention then he jumps in and starts wailing on their ADC. lots of options there.
ezreal - EZ is a soft counter to blitz - but his arcane shift does let him escape the blitz pull pretty easily.
not as squishy as he looks - blitz is squishy at early levels - but he's not as squishy as he looks - and since he's a one trick pony it's better to just ignore him until the fight is over - i find a lot of folks focus the blitz once the fight is engaged - it's a big mistake.
be willing/prepared to change your play. blitzcrank does require you to adapt to him - he just does. he's a great champ but he's not OP. if you or you're ally can't land hooks then he's useless. similarly. if you can avoid the hook playing against the opposing blitzcrank, he can't do very much and you win the game. just dodge the hooks - it's easy enough. if you play support/top lane. intercept the hooks and use it as you're initiation. that works too. but seriosuly - blitz is not that bad.
