Favour timeline — the windows in Blitzcrank's game plan

Read from Blitzcrank's seat: which stage windows this plan plays for against Yuumi.

StageFavouredWhy
Level 1BlitzcrankYou reach level 2 first and an unattached Yuumi is a free Rocket Grab target.
Level 2BlitzcrankLevel 2 is yours: her fragile detached body dies to one grab plus follow-up.
Level 3BlitzcrankLevel 3 stays yours since attaching only delays the moment she must step out.
Levels 4-5BlitzcrankLevels 4-5 favour you; she has no CC to interrupt your engage on either target.
Level 6BlitzcrankAt 6 her Final Chapter channel can't stop your grab or peel your all-in.
First itemBlitzcrankFirst item stays yours because her shields and sustain don't counter a pick.
Two+ itemsBlitzcrankLate is yours: you hook the carry and enable-only Yuumi can't disrupt the kill.

How to beat Yuumi as Blitzcrank: the early game

You crush levels 1-3: an unattached Yuumi is a squishy immobile target and reaching level 2 first lets you Rocket Grab her out of lane, while attached she deals chip damage but can't stop a thing. An unattached Yuumi is a free grab, so watch for the moment she detaches and hold the hook for exactly that. Until then, threaten her ADC from the brush instead. Overdrive covers the approach, and the fist is what stops the carry walking out while she is still travelling.
