Blitzcrank Player Goes The Distance To Keep LoL Teammate In The Fight

The bottom lane of League of Legends lives and dies on the combined effort and sync between support and marksman characters. While the marksman role is arguably easier to fill, a good support can be tough to find. If you’ve got a support that will hold enemies down for a kill or soak up damage, that’s not bad, but a support that will strategically jump in the way of an attack that could make or break a fight is invaluable. That’s what happens in this clip with The SwagonBorn (Vayne) and Kanye Kardashian (Blitzcrank) find themselves in a lopsided 2v3 fight against the enemy marksman, jungle, and support.

It starts simple enough with Blitz landing a pull to set Vayne up to launch her ultimate attack and net the first kill. However, it’s at the :16 mark when Thresh attempts a pull to stunt Vayne’s assault that the real play happens. In the blink of an eye, Blitz flashes into the way of Thresh’s hook, taking the stunlock for Vayne and allowing her stay on the attack and finish her opponents off. Purposeful or not, Blitz’s timely flash saved a low-health Vayne from the handful of damage it would have taken to off her and shifted the momentum in just the way the two of them needed to come out on top in the fracas. Throw some honor to that life-saving robot!
