Just don't hook this guy into your team post level 6.
Thresh
A skill match-up, whoever lands the first hook wins. But you have a slight advantage because you have no wind up on your hook and it pulls an enemy to you completely, not just partially like Thresh's hook. This allows for hooks under your tower to kill him.
Lulu
Has good disengage with all of her abilities. Also her poke with her Q does respectable damage.
Morgana
The traditional counter to Blitz, her Q out ranges yours and she has a shield to stop your Q or E.
Nami
Haven't played the matchup much but a good hook should kill a nami. She can't really escape a Blitz and an ADC, most of the time at least.
Nautilus
A huge tank with tons of CC and AOE CC, just don't hook him. use your E and W to disengage from him if you have to.
Sona
Pretty strong poke but she's always in range of your Q and her speed boost shouldn't mean too much early. You'll probably win lane against her, she's squishy and she tends to be in range of a Q which will kill her most of the time.
Soraka
Not a threat to you or your ADC, just an annoyance. One good hook should kill her though.
Tahm Kench
A tank who can survive a hook with his shield, but he can't really hurt you for hooking him. He's not much of a threat.
Taric
Taric can stun you and possibly your adc if you hook him. He's very tanky and can dive you with his ult. He can also ult if you land a hook and this could let him turn around on you or just get away without dying.
Braum
His shield can keep him alive if you hook him and he'll probably land a Q once you pull him in, allowing him and his ADC or team to turn on you because of Braum's passive being applied on you.
Leona
She engages you hook her under tower or behind a minion wave, ez gg wp noobz.
Lux
Can poke you for some considerable damage and can deal some great burst damage if your hook is on cooldown.
Malphite
He has early mana problems and no safe way to poke you, just watch out for his level 6 engage with his adc.
Vel'Koz
True damage passive against you, a tank, doesn't end well for you. Just try to aviod as much poke as possible early and once Velkoz ults try to Q or E him to cancel it.
Zilean
High damage on his Q and his Ult being able to save a hooked ADC makes him a considerable threat, if you want to engage on him after level 6 make sure either his ult is down or that you kill both him and his ADC at about the same time so one of them dies. He can only ult one person, make sure that he has to choose between two or more people.
Zyra
High damage poke which outranges your hook, survive the lane phase and roam for kills.
Karma
High damage poke and kill potential in lane, her speed boost makes her or any nearby allies hard targets to hook. Play safe in lane and roam for kills.
Janna
She may not deal much damage but her disengage is insane, you wont get many if any kills while she's in lane. Either roam for kills or force her into backing then hook the enemy ADC if you can.
