| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Blitzcrank | At level 1 his longer-range grab can delete your carry before you have peel, favoring Blitz. |
| Level 2 | Even / skill | From 2 you gain Flay and lantern to answer his grab, evening it to skill. |
| Level 3 | Even / skill | Both threaten pickoffs equally at 3, so it's a skill duel. |
| Levels 4-5 | Even / skill | Neither pulls ahead at 4-5 as hooks trade one-for-one, staying even. |
| Level 6 | Even / skill | Your Box and lantern offset his grab-follow burst at 6, keeping it even. |
| First item | Even / skill | One item doesn't break the hook mirror, so it's skill. |
| Two+ items | Even / skill | Late, lantern peel balances his burst and it remains an even pick lane. |
Blitzcrank edges level 1: his Rocket Grab has longer range and a landed pull at 1 can outright delete your ADC before you have Flay or lantern to answer it.
