Why Should I Play Blitzcrank?
Blitzcrank, the Great Steam Golem, is, undoubtedly, one of the most iconic support champions within League of Legends, now incredibly useful with his game-changing hooks and disruptive presence on the Rift. If you're someone who likes playing champions with a game-changing differential in their gameplay on their own during some kind of moment in the game with a well-timed ability, look no further than Blitzcrank. The combination of his crowd control, tankiness, and the possibility of catching enemies out of position makes him an overall highly impactful pick and even more so in the support role.

Probably one of the most popular reasons Blitzcrank is played is because of his powerful engage potential. His Rocket Grab is one of the most feared abilities in all the game, able to yank an enemy champion from safety into the midst of your team. A well-landed hook is instantly able to turn the tide of a fight in your favor by catching out a key enemy carry or setting up a team fight on your terms. This alone is a constant threat presence that forces enemies to be very careful with their positioning, as any mistake will mean certain death.

Blitzcrank also happens to be great at team disruption, which makes him a potent champion in the laning phase and in team fights. His Power Fist knocks up the target upon the next auto-attack, adding more crowd control and generally making it fiddly for enemies to either retreat or be in a good enough position to counterattack. This, coupled with his Rocket Grab, allows Blitzcrank to chain his crowd control fairly easily and hold enemies down for pretty extended periods of time. Additionally, his Static Field/R causes immense AOE damage and silences all enemies, which mean that they are unable to cast their abilities, so your team gains an overwhelming advantage in fights.

Another reason to play Blitzcrank would be he has the ability to zone and control the map. His presence alone would give the enemies the urge to avoid parts of the map simply because they know that any second a hook might appear. This works most effectively during the laning phase, where Blitzcrank can create pressure simply by standing in a bush, therefore making it dangerous for the bot lane enemy to approach the minion wave or engage in fights. The zoning potential follows into the mid and late game, where Blitzcrank will have opportunities to catch enemies in jungle corridors or near objectives such as Dragon or Baron Nashor.

Another relevant factor that makes Blitzcrank a strong pick is his tankiness. He will gain a large shield when his health falls below a certain threshold with his passive Mana Barrier, which gives him survivability in cases of burst damage and allows him to survive such instances to keep fighting. This makes him a very reliable frontline champion who can absorb damage for his team while continuing to disrupt the enemy. He can itemize tanks, making him even more resistant and difficult to focus by enemies in the thick of their team, making a ruckus and space for allies.

Another reason players like Blitzcrank is his thematic appeal. A sentient steam-powered golem, Blitzcrank's design showcases this powerful, mechanical force on the Rift. His sense of style and quirky personality make him an agreeable champion to play, with all his visual effects and sound effects. Blitzcrank's identity is one of a never-stopping, relentless force showing in the gameplay, where his hooks and crowd control can turn around a game in an instant.

Finally, Blitzcrank provides a very expressive playing experience for those kinds of players aiming for Champions with high-risk, high-reward options. Lining up an important hook in a tense game feels amazingly good—especially if it's one that sets up a game-winning play. Blitzcrank is a champion whose playstyle rewards accuracy, timing, and strategic thinking for a continuous opportunity of growth and improvement. Whether it's catching an enemy out of position, peeling for your carries, or just initiating a team fight, Blitzcrank provides a very dynamic and high-impact experience that can lead to victory for your team.

In a nutshell, Blitzcrank is an extremely useful and disruptive kind of support champion who excels in catching enemies off guard and is good at controlling the battlefield and tanking damage for his team. It's game-changing hooks, crowd control, and tankiness make him a very desirable addition to any kind of team composition. If you are someone who likes playing champions that turn the tide of a fight with one skill, then Blitzcrank is the champion for you.
