League of Legends offers its players a choice of champions for every taste. A truly universal hero in this regard is Blitzcrank. Guide (season 6) could contain information on the magical or “dd-shnom” direction of the game, but we will focus exclusively on the role of support, since it is in this aspect that the champion can be most useful.
Skills
One of the most interesting points is that most skills do not require AR or AD. So you do not have to increase these characteristics to increase damage. And the remaining skills have a large increase in damage along with the level.
- The passive ability Shield of Mana is activated when the champion has less than 20% health, and it lasts 10 seconds. The shield absorbs damage equal to half the current mana of the hero.
- "Missile capture" allows you to attract the first enemy on the way and stun him. Not only does the skill have a high base damage, but also an increase of 1 * AP.
- "Acceleration". The name speaks for itself. The champion gets a good increase in speed and attack.
- Using Power Fist , you will strengthen your next physical attack. The skill works great with artifacts that increase damage after applying the skill.
- Ulta Static Field passively deals damage to a random creature (champion or minion) in range every 2.5 seconds. When activated, it launches a wave that causes damage to everyone around and silences enemies for 0.5 seconds. While the skill is in the rollback, passive damage does not work.
Runes and Spells
So what is our guide aimed at? Blitzcrank is a support, and that’s it. Accordingly, additional bonuses must be chosen based on this.
Using the runes, we maximize the defense, and as the last one we set the gold gain every 10 seconds.
Despite the fact that Blitzkrank has high mobility, he still can not do without the spell "Jump". The second magic is well suited "Exhaustion." It will reduce the speed of movement of the enemy, which, together with its own acceleration will allow to catch up with the enemy in seconds.
Talents
Assembling talents can be very different, depending on the style of the game. The old Blitzkrank guide (season 5) advised using the 18-12-0 layout, but we collect support, so in this situation, 0-12-18 is more suitable.
In the second column, immediately take "Wanderer". Then "Cache". After that, "Meditation" and "Bandit." All these talents will cover the champion’s weaknesses or emphasize his features.
In the third column, "Recovery" is primarily pumped. After that, "Researchers" to increase the capabilities of the gank. Runic Armor will enhance your passive ability. Now you can take "Insight", because you will not be able to collect artifacts to roll back skills. After that take "Swiftness". How to finish the pumping, decide for yourself. The "Power of Centuries" will increase the supply of health, but the "Grasp of the Undead" during the duration of the passive shield will restore 6-9% of maximum life.
Artifacts
On this you can end the guide. Blitzcrank is a support, the strength of which depends little on assembly. Your main task is to attract and stun opponents in battle. As artefacts, the following items will help him well.
- "Sandals of Mobility" - give a huge amount of speed outside the battle.
- Ruby Sight Stone - for more efficient warding.
- Talisman of Ascension - provides a number of useful characteristics. This is "free" gold, and an increase in speed, and mana regeneration.
- The “Medallion of Iron Solari” is an indispensable item for any support. Imposes a shield on allies and passively increases the magic resistance of surrounding allies.
- Cold Gauntlet works great with an accelerated attack. Every fourth blow will damage and slow down the surrounding enemies.
The last artifact is not what the guide will talk about. Blitzcrank is so universal that you can choose the sixth item yourself, without much harm to the build.
- You can use the last cell under the Seeing Totem .
- To increase the effectiveness of the gauntlet, collect the Triple Alliance .
- Strengthen your passive skill with Manamune . It will also increase physical attack.
- Frozen will reduce the attack speed of surrounding enemies.
We hope you find our guide useful. Blitzcrank is a champion who will demand only one thing from you: to use the opponent’s gravity in time. In a mass battle, your task is to interrupt the spell casting of enemy magicians.
