Blitzcrank






Build usage

• Stacking mana with items like Manamune and Frozen Heart will increase the effectiveness of his Mana Barrier.
• Blitzcrank can be effective at tank, DPS, and support roles. A tank should get items that give mana and survivability, a DPS should get Manamune and Sheen (and later a Trinity Force, Iceborn Gauntlet ), and a support should get cooldown reduction to put out as much crowd control as possible.
  • Building Blitzcrank as a support consider getting Mikael's Crucible as it will moderately boost your supporting capabilities.
• Manamune synergizes with Blitzcrank extremely well. It increases his attack damage, and the potential 1000 mana increases the effectiveness of Mana Barrier. This item is universal in nearly every Blitzcrank build.
  • Muramana's toggle affects the passive portion of Static Field - each bolt deals bonus damage and consumes mana.
    • While increasing your DPS this can also quickly deplete your mana lowering the strength of your Mana Barrier.
  • Alternatively, Manamune can be replaced with Archangel's Staff and on an AP/Tank hybrid with other AP + HP items such as Rod of Ages and Rylai's Crystal Scepter.
• Sheen, and later Trinity Force can greatly increase the damage output of Blitzcrank's standard combo, as well as increase the strength of his Power Fist and Mana Barrier.
• Frozen Heart and Banshee's Veil are great items for a Tanky-Support Blitzcrank, as they provide mana for your Manamune and Mana Barrier. This gives increased survivability (from the armor, magic resistance, and synergy with Mana Barrier), decent amounts of attack damage, and helpful cooldown reduction.
• Since Blitzcrank has trouble farming for gold, Aegis of the Legion can be used as a cheap and effective way to increase his survivability and usefulness to his team, especially if he's being built as a tanky-support role.
