Passive · Q · W · E · RWhen Blitzcrank's life is brought below 20% health he activates Mana Barrier. This creates a mana shield equal to 50% of his mana for 10 seconds. Mana Barrier can only occur once every 90 seconds.

Blitzcrank fires his right hand to grab an opponent on its path, dealing damage and dragging it back to him.

Blitzcrank super charges himself to get dramatically increased movement and attack speed.

Blitzcrank charges up his fist to make his next attack deal double damage and pop his target up in the air.

Passively causes lightning bolts to damage a nearby enemy. Additionally, Blitzcrank can activate this ability to damage nearby enemies and silence them for 0.5 seconds, but doing so removes the passive lightning until Static Field becomes available again.
Champion Tips
Riot officialPlaying as
- The 1-2-3 combo of Rocket Grab, Power Fist, and Static Field can devastate an individual opponent.
- Using Blitzcrank's grab to pull an enemy into your tower range followed by a Power Fist will allow the tower to get several hits on them.
Playing against
- Blitzcrank's passive Mana Barrier grants him a shield when he is low on health.
- Staying behind creeps can prevent you from being Rocket Grabbed. Blitzcrank's Rocket Grab only pulls the first enemy target it encounters.
