Xerath vs Blitzcrank

Confidence mediumUpdated Jun 8, 2026

Overview

Use (Q) and (W) to poke and zone, denying ADC access near brush where Blitzcrank threatens hooks.
Control brush vision to prevent Blitzcrank's fog-of-war hook angles and protect ADC positioning.
Leverage long-range poke and (E) stun to peel for your ADC against Blitzcrank's engage attempts.

Trading pattern

Hold (E) stun defensively to peel after Blitzcrank commits (Q) hook.
Use (W) slow to set up easier (Q) poke and create follow-up windows for your ADC.
Deny brush control to limit Blitzcrank's hook angles and force him to waste cooldowns.

Danger windows

Respect (Q) hook range when brush or fog blocks vision, threatening your ADC.
Beware level 2 all-in when Blitzcrank gains (Q)+(E) combo with ADC follow-up.
Track (R) silence cooldown that can interrupt your ADC's defensive spells post-hook.

Early game

Prioritize level 2 timing to avoid (Q)+(E) all-in with ADC follow-up.
Keep wave thin to reduce Blitzcrank's clean hook angles and maintain ADC safety.
Ward river and tri-brush early to track Blitzcrank's roam timer and mid pressure.

Power spikes

Level 2 unlocks (Q)+(E) kill threat; play cautiously until ADC can match.
Level 6 (R) gives you long-range follow-up; use this window for safe all-ins or defensive resets.
First completed mana/AP item boosts your poke damage, increasing lane pressure and ADC safety.

Win conditions

Convert poke damage into ADC access denial by controlling brush and wave state.
Set river vision around dragon to prevent Blitzcrank's roaming picks and secure objective setups.
Roam after wave crash with ADC safe, using (R) to pressure mid or assist resets safely.

Tip: For Xerath vs Blitzcrank, read overview, trading pattern, and danger windows first for a fast Support lane check.
