Laning Against Caitlyn

Listen for audio cues when Caitlyn places her traps (W). If unseen, they're likely behind your tower. When pushed under tower, maintain a safe distance to avoid trap damage.

Maintain maximum range from Caitlyn, especially when her empowered auto-attack is ready. Wait for her to use this ability before advancing.

Counter Caitlyn's early tower pressure by prioritizing health and XP over CS. Request jungle or mid assistance when she overextends.

Strategy VS Caitlyn

Target Caitlyn when her Net (E) is on cooldown, as this is her primary escape tool. Consider Flash engages or bush ambushes if she plays defensively.

In teamfights, focus Caitlyn early to prevent sustained damage output. Use flanking maneuvers if she's well-protected by her team.

Prevent snowballing by repeatedly ganking Caitlyn early game. Coordinate with allies to shut her down before she scales.

Power Spikes

Two-item power spike: Respect Caitlyn's all-in potential once she completes two major items.

Empowered auto-attack windows: Play defensively when her headshot is ready. Wait for her to use it before engaging.

Level 6 execution potential: Recall safely when low health to avoid her Ultimate (R). Use vision denial to prevent her from targeting you.
