He indeed can run up and hit you! That's exactly what a Blitz will look forward to do most of the times.

I can't understand the comparison between Rocket Grab and Bandage Toss / Essence Flux. Bandage Toss has the same projectile speed as Rocket Grab and just 175 more range. However, Rocket Grab pulls an opponent to himself / his team, whereas Bandage Toss pulls yourself to the opponent / the enemy team. There's a difference, you know.

The matter is not how you can counterplay a skill: every single skill has a counterplay. The matter is 1) how easily is it to counter a skill 2) how effective the skill is. Rocket Grab can be countered by dashes, staying behind minions or dodging, however its effectiveness is so high that a single Rocket Grab landing easily leads to a kill.
