How to beat Blitzcrank as Renata Glasc: the early game

Levels 1 through 6 belong to Blitzcrank because a single Rocket Grab ends the trade regardless of your level; his hook range outreaches your intercepts and one catch on your ADC is a kill. You spend lane respecting his angle, standing behind minions, and never stepping into brush without vision. His grab and your tether are the same button in different colours, so the lane goes to whoever throws second. Stand behind your own minions, mark him with an auto whenever the hook is on cooldown, and keep the shield-speed for your carry's exit rather than your own.
