Although she is one of the most basic characters, we can say that “classic is always good” is the embodiment of the phrase “classic is always good” for Caitlyn. Our character’s abilities are as simple and far from complex as possible (of course, by simple we mean that the abilities are understandable). All of his abilities fulfill his duties properly and the result is a simple yet fun and powerful character to play.
As with many other characters, there are of course situations where Caitlyn takes on a complex within herself. Especially strategically using traps with W ability is the biggest challenge of the character. But at the core, once you get used to it, Caitlyn is a really comfortable character to play. Now that we’ve talked about the little details about Caitlyn, we can now examine our character’s abilities, CT’s, strengths and weaknesses.
Caitlyn CTs: Counters strong against Caitlyn:
- Veigar
- Tristana
- Ziggs
- Twitch
- Kog’Maw
Caitlyn has a high range compared to most attack power carriers and generally her abilities are to use this range properly and protect her based on. Therefore, characters who can play outside this range or who can easily enter the distance can be quite a problem for Caitlyn in the corridor phase, although not throughout the game. A very simple example of this is that sorcerer characters have been playing as attack power carriers in the bottom lane for a while.
Master Marksman Caitlyn’s full abilities:
- Passive / Headshot: Caitlyn can hit targets caught in a trap or net every few basic attacks or While attacking, he hits his target in the Head. Headshots deal bonus damage proportional to the chance of a critical strike on the target. Doubles Caitlyn’s Headshot range against enemies trapped or netted
- Q / Piltover Weapon: Caitlyn installs her weapon for 1 second, dealing physical damage and piercing through. (Deals less damage from first to targets after.)
- W / Yordle Trap: Caitlyn sets up a trap to catch elusive yordles. The trap reveals and immobilizes an enemy champion that steps on it for 1.5 seconds. Also gives Caitlyn an empowered Headshot.
- E / 90 Caliber Net: Caitlyn throws a heavy net that slows her target, and as she throws the net, her rifle recoils, knocking Caitlyn back.
- R / Last Trump: Caitlyn patiently takes aim for a perfect shot, dealing massive damage to a single target at exceptional range. Enemy champions can jump in front of the bullet to protect their teammates.
Piltover Sheriff Caitlyn’s strengths and weaknesses:
Caitlyn’s strengths:
- Very having a long range
- Ability to attack an opponent from a very wide distance with her ultimate ability
- Having a very high critical damage with her passive
Caitlyn is really a sniper a character. It’s true that there are many attack power carriers, but Caitlyn is specifically a character who can’t fight comfortably at close range. In addition to being far from his own range, the ability to use his ultimate ability on any target from a very long distance supports the sniper feature of the character. In addition, thanks to the feature from his passive, his critical damage can be very deadly, especially in the late stages of the game, in the correct use of abilities.
Caitlyn’s weaknesses:
- Weak against crowd control like many attack damage carriers
- Disadvantaged against characters who can cover distance or are strong in mobility
- Ability to block an opposing player’s ultimate ability from its target
Unfortunately, Caitlyn is not a strong against crowd control character like many attack power carriers, even many League of Legends characters. Since our character has a strong side range, a character who is strong in closing distance or mobility can be a real trouble for Caitlyn. In addition, although his ultimate ability is ideal for safely hunting an opponent from a long distance, if another opponent passes in front of his target opponent, he can very simply block this ability.
How to play Caitlyn in LoL? Proper use of your
- W is important throughout the game, including the laning phase
- E although your ability is quite strong for defensive purposes, playing aggressively While using your ultimate
- , choosing targets that your opponents can’t easily block will increase your chances of hitting successfully
Caitlyn’s traps are a skill that is effective throughout the game. Since traps can be used more than once, placing them in strategic ways will not only narrow the areas where the opponent can play comfortably, but will also enable you and your team to play more widely and comfortably. While it is an ideal ability to use E for defensive purposes, it is also possible to use the ability in the opposite direction and display an aggressive game against the opponent (of course, this aggressive game also comes with its benefits). While using your ultimate ability, choosing targets that your opponents cannot easily avoid or block will increase the accuracy of the ability quite a lot.
How to play against Caitlyn, how to beat Caitlyn?
- Caitlyn’s traps are particularly dangerous in the hands of someone who knows. It’s good to see where you’re stepping
- Caitlyn’s ultimate can be easily blocked so it’s a good idea to be with your teammates when you’re low on health
- as much as you can as Caitlyn’s passive ability causes her to deal pretty strong damage. Try to avoid her E and W abilities
Caitlyn’s traps are a dangerous ability throughout the game. Aside from revealing your place when you press the trap, staying still for a while may result in your sudden death in the late stages of the game. While Caitlyn’s ultimate deals a lot of free damage, she’s just as easy to block. We don’t recommend staying too far away from your teammates, especially if you survived the battle with little vigour. Caitlyn’s passive ability Headshot causes Caitlyn’s next hit to deal a massive amount of damage. Avoid abilities as much as you can, as his E and W abilities also activate this passive, apart from his own attacks.
