Who Wins

  • Pre-6: Your duo wins through superior range and poke potential, with your Q providing additional threat while staying safely behind minions.
  • Post-6: The matchup becomes much more dangerous as Blitzcrank's engage combined with Samira's R can burst through your peel abilities.

Synergy & Trading

  • Use Q for additional poke and threat while Caitlyn harasses from range, and save E for disengage when Blitzcrank attempts hooks.
  • Focus on short trades and positioning rather than extended fights where Samira can stack passive.

Wave Control/Roaming

  • Roam when Caitlyn has a significant wave advantage and can safely farm, typically after forcing the enemy duo to recall.
  • Look for mid-lane ganks around levels 4-6 when your Q-E combo is most effective for setting up kills.

Mistakes to Avoid

  • Don't use E aggressively for poke, as you need it to interrupt Blitzcrank's engage or peel for Caitlyn when he lands hooks.
  • Never facecheck bushes or walk up without vision, as Blitzcrank's Q from fog of war is extremely dangerous for your positioning.
