Defences to try against someone who 'blitzes' suggestions ?

[sensei8]

The blitz is suppose to be that...an alarming and overwhelming surprise, especially for someone's whose never experienced a blitz. There's not enough earth to prepare one for a well executed blitz; one can back-up/retreat all they want until they're overcame by the torrential rush.

However, an unskilled practitioner executing their first blitz can find themselves off balanced and tripping over their own feet at the most improper time.

Those who can handle the most prepared blitz with an uncanny ease aren't going to succumb to many things unless they're just caught totally by surprise.

Extremely well said. I've face-planted more than once while learning to blitz.

It's a humbling experience, to say the least, but quite tutorial, on the other hand.
