The Alistar versus Blitzcrank matchup as support is favorable with proper positioning. Use your statistical advantage and prevent the opponent from realizing their potential.
The magic damage that Alistar deals remains relevant in the late game. Look for opportunities to initiate or counter-initiate. Blitzcrank has mixed damage, be careful as it may be harder to defend if the opponent gets ahead or plays aggressively.
An important advantage of Alistar is superior vision control (ranked 3rd among supports) (versus 19th for Blitzcrank), which provides better map control and safety for the team in important map areas.
Despite the statistical advantage in the matchup, overconfidence can be the main mistake. It is important for the Alistar player to maintain constant pressure on Blitzcrank, not allowing the opponent to safely scale up, and actively use the advantage gained to help their team.
