Galio vs Blitzcrank

Confidence mediumUpdated Jun 9, 2026

Overview

Use (W) and (E) to control brush and deny Blitzcrank's hook angles for safer ADC access.
Prioritize mid-wave states that allow quick (R) roams to influence river and mid pressure.
Enable ADC follow-up by holding engage until Blitzcrank commits or misses (Q) hook.

Trading pattern

Hold (W) taunt and (E) knock-up to punish Blitzcrank stepping too close or after missed (Q).
Sync engage with ADC follow-up after Blitzcrank's hook cooldown expires or is dodged.
Deny brush access to limit Blitzcrank's hook threat and force him into less effective trades.

Danger windows

Respect (Q) hook range and brush angles that threaten your ADC's positioning.
Avoid extended trades when (E) knock-up and (Q) are available for quick all-ins.
Beware of Blitzcrank's level 6 (R) silence disrupting your ADC's defensive spells or escape tools.

Early game

Track level 2 closely and hold (W) and (E) to counter (Q)+(E) all-in threat.
Deny Blitzcrank brush control early to reduce his hook angles and protect ADC positioning.
Use wave state to create lane space for your ADC to position safely and prepare for roams.

Power spikes

Level 6 (R) grants impactful follow-up engage and peel; use it to turn skirmishes or protect ADC.
First durability or AP utility item enhances short trades and roaming safety; increase pressure post-item.
Track Blitzcrank's level 2 (Q)+(E) spike to avoid unsafe trades before your ADC can respond.

Win conditions

Convert brush control and (W)/(E) cooldowns into safe ADC access and denied enemy ADC positioning.
Use wave crashes to create roam windows with (R) for river vision and mid pressure.
Set vision around dragon to leverage (R) for teamfight entry and objective control with your engage and peel.
