Playing as Blitzcrank

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Grab from a clear angle

    Fire Rocket Grab (Q) from a brush or a side angle: it grabs the first enemy hit, so you need a line without minions.

  2. Power Fist right after the grab

    After a successful grab, cast Power Fist (E) right away: your next auto knocks the target into the air and deals double damage.

  3. Sometimes engage without a grab

    Sometimes engage without a grab: rush in with Overdrive (W), knock your target into the air with Power Fist (E), and save Rocket Grab (Q) for when they Flash away.

  4. Bait with your shield

    Use Mana Barrier (passive) to bait: at low health you get a shield based on your mana, enough to make a kill look easy.

  5. Save your grab for their carry

    In teamfights, save Rocket Grab (Q) for their carry and wait for them out of vision: grabbing them before the fight starts often decides it.

Playing against Morgana

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Stay behind your minions

    Stay behind your minions: Dark Binding (Q) roots the first enemy hit, so a single minion is enough to block it.

  2. Don't CC into her shield

    If you have CC, don't throw it into Black Shield (E): it blocks disabling and immobilizing CC while it holds, and only magic damage can break it sooner.

  3. Break her chains

    When Soul Shackles (R) binds you, move away from her to break the chain: otherwise, at the end, you take damage again and get stunned.

  4. Engage when her E is down

    Engage when Black Shield (E) is on cooldown: it comes back in 26 to 16 seconds, and without it, her allies have no protection against CC.
