Blitzcrank is an enormous, near-indestructible automaton from Zaun, originally built to dispose of hazardous waste. However, he found this primary purpose too restricting, and modified his own form to better serve the fragile people of the Sump...

// HOW TO PLAY · BLITZCRANK

Early Game

Top-lane Blitz is a Grasp tank-bruiser. Stack passive Grasp procs on the enemy laner every 4s. Q-hook them under tower for dive setups.

Don't all-in level 1-3 without Knight's Vow / Sunfire. Your AD is bad. Hug the wave, soak resists.

Mid Game

After Sunfire Aegis, your AoE damage explodes. Roam to mid lane with Q-hook setups for free kills. Your kit translates to any lane — Q is universal CC.

In 1v1s, lead with E (knock-up) -> AA reset -> Q -> AA. You out-trade most top-laners thanks to W speed.

Late Game

Frontline engage tank. Q the enemy carry from fog at jungle skirmishes. Your R-silence ends mage damage outputs.

Blitz top has no peel-CC — your job is the all-in initiation. Don't 1v1 fed bruisers — group with team.

Win Condition

Reach 2 items, then pick-engage every fight. You win by hooking the enemy carry out of position. Lose if their team has anti-hook (Morg E, Sivir E, Olaf R, Yasuo E).

Power Spikes

Level 6 — R silences mages. Sunfire Aegis — AoE waveclear + persistent damage. Jak'Sho — resist scaling spike. Level 16 — R rank 3 + 5 items = teamfight monster.

Tips & Combos

Combos:

  • Q -> Flash mid-air -> AA -> E -> AA toward your tower (zone dive)
  • W active before Q for the speed boost
  • R-silence into team's full damage rotation

Anti-tips:

  • Don't pick into Mord/Cho/Garen-style sustain tanks
  • Don't try to duel Fiora/Camille — their kit shreds Blitz's resists
