he should not be able to be that tanky and deal that much damage as well tho :/ He only deals dmg like that if he gets ahead or fed.
Typically he doesn't.

Gamedesigning101. You realize Blitz is a walking CC machine right?
3 CC's, 2 of which are hard CC's.
Even if he did ***for dmg an enemy SHOULD be able to kill you during the time you're grabbed, knocked up and the silenced and can't flash away. It's completely fine.
They did tweak his CC duration and nerfed his damage not long ago. He just needs more nerf. See Janna or even Zyra, they are extremely good example as to why only his damage is an issue.
What's wrong with playing a champion that is 90% utility and 10% damage? What's wrong with having a CC only champion, shining only in some situations (forced team fights/skirmishes)?
If I wasn't a game designer, I would cry about his CCs, but that's actually crying about the whole concept that is Blitzkrank. His damage are a mistake, not his kit. His kit "can" be seen as a mistake nowadays because with the evolution of the game, no champion gather as much CC as him. It's a kind of reverse power creep, because he was out when not many CC-master were, so he had to get the job done.
he should not be able to be that tanky and deal that much damage as well tho :/ Yes. That's why they nerfed him a few weeks back, they just haven't hammered hard enough.
I feel sorry for the people playing Blitz outside of a support, but much like Zyra, he needs to be toned down.

Gamedesigning101.
The reason blitz is OP is due to his kit
Blitz will always be OP unless you nerf the pull, if he just had the knockup and the silence, sure he'd be a little strong but he wouldn't be as OP and permabanned
1 good blitz pull can win a game
that is why he needs to be nerfed

Basically blitz isn't permabanned because he does too much damage
it's because he offers way too much utility and his kit is stupid broken
he has a kit that can't really be balanced, so you're probably not going to see him fixed any time soon

Maybe if they release a champion taking some of his kit.
Kinda hard to backpedal in such a game involving people's money, though.

really the only way to play against blitz is to pick against blitz before the game starts
pick a team of people you wouldn't want to pull in

I don't really think blitz is SO bad. I lose to him occasionally, but I win more often than not, with Leona, or Nunu.
Simple solution? Don't get grabbed. It's not quick, and you can always see it coming (animation wise). If you do, then your mistake.
Be lucky you don't see him in the Jungle with any degree of regularity.
Having a grab come at you from absolutely anywhere is terrifying, much worse than Amumu.

I think the main problem people have is that:
1) his hook is still lethal as ***
2) they are lazy and don't want to shake their habits, actually adapting
Not saying I'm good against a Blitz and will never get pulled, but I sure as *** don't play as I would without a Blitz in front.
As for the jungle part, most Blitz I face tend to roam the jungle hardcore and pull people. That's what makes him dangerous as ***, but then again, warding jungle exist, adapting etc.

Since people like to play randomly (and after talking about it yesterday), we should maybe organize a 5v5 event between the AH people (and/or the usual people we bring)?
We could ARAM or normal rift, special theme (only supports, only bruisers etc). Would be fun.
We could even make a giant creep contest.

Ya. And if it's a game changer, they accept the defeat and go on.
But a Taric stun or Morgana bind are just as game changing.
Which is a shame, because I don't think I've ever landed a hook any time I play blitz. Certainly not one that I would remember as awesome.

A morgana binding or a taric stun aren't the same because they don't bring you into the entire enemy team instantly
One ability having the ability to turn a losing game completely around is a bit ridiculous
blitzcrank makes for instant 1v5s and then afterwards 4v5s
its kind of broken

i forsee 5 angry people at the end of that Doubt so, out of all the people from AH I have played only one was actually an idiot. If anything, 9 people will make fun of him/ignore him/tell him to grow the *** up when it happens.

That's why the only thing I see being doable against Blitz is ruining the rest, but it doesn't solve the hook.
But at the same time, this is Blitz's signature, there is nothing to solve imo.

But at the same time, this is Blitz's signature, there is nothing to solve imo. The worst thing I can see them doing is messing with his cooldown timer and costs, but imo its already decently high. As much as I hate a blitz crank at times I feel that hes a 1 trick pony, after his hook has missed, his presence is pretty minimal, but I dont really bot lane and when I do its on support so I dont really have too much fear of blitz cranks.

Why hello there.
Has anyone here at least given this game a try or plays it? I enjoy it a lot for what it's worth. It's a MOBA-style game and it's completely FREE unless you want to buy skins(merely aesthetic) for champions. All the champions are well-balanced and can be purchased with Influence Points earned from matches.
