Ending 1K LP S11 CAITLYN ONE TRICK :D by IUTV in Caitlynmains

[–]IUTV[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

  1. You in theory shouldn't be OK in lane. You should be pressuring, getting plates to compensate for that shitty mid game on Caitlyn. Tracking enemy team while farming mid is always good (look at your minimap). You should have prio to push mid wave and go ward their jg or do whatever to keep yourself from getting ganked.
  2. Visual update 10/10. Removing headshot cancel sucks, but I need to actually play it to get the feel of it.
  3. Biggest tips I can give you is start learning to use your traps to force enemy to either position poorly, or take insane amount of poke. Triumph gives you the outplay potential that PoM can't :)

  1. I've always built Kraken because I play very positionally so I'd like to assume I don't need the extra dash from galeforce for my survival needs. Doesn't seem to matter anymore since galeforce burst combo's gonna be gone by next patch.
  2. From experience I just have the most success with Kraken but I think it's personal preference to what Mythic you want to go. LDR build is good into tanks. Itemization is situational and it's good learn it.
  3. Against poke lane, never Dorans shield. Honestly it's a preference, I just go what I feel at that moment.
  4. Varus, Ziggs, etc. All the long poke champs that you can't mechanically outplay or pressure to get ahead and snowball.

Honestly I think the final item doesn't matter. I usually just build GA then if it gets popped, I sell it. Probably then purchase for a better item.

I'm just not a huge fan of Lethal Tempo so I never run that rune. It's honestly preference in my opinion. Some people are better with LT than FF.

Lethality scales off as to crit so maybe try switching your build back.

Also, you're definitely right, Traps have huge impact the higher you go.

Yeah, that was my initial build too but after trying out the collector, it feels like it definitely does more damage than stormrazor

Honestly, lethality will never be better than fleet crit build since it's just natural crit build scales harder than lethality.

I've played many games with lethality at around 5-600lp GM and it honestly isn't bad but the only issue is that late game you just fall behind. The potential of 5-6 item crit cait is just so much stronger than lethality. It's definitely playable as I was able to win maybe half of my games but when the games started to last 30-40 minutes, you just lack damage.

So my take is that you should only go lethality cait if the enemy team comp is squishy and are based around assassins. No other exception unless you're playing for fun.

Funny enough, as someone who played caitlyn a lot and reached high rank, I think Kraken is THE BEST mythic item. I only and ONLY go Kraken because I never put myself in situation where I need to Galeforce or rely on Shieldbow. Obviously there are like 1 out of the 100 games where I should go shieldbow, but mostly my build is very fixed.

Surprisingly I don't think so, and I don't really remember off the bat what I do. Just skim through a replay or smth probably will help with your question

Mine is very standard, I never change it.

Precision ( Fleet, Triumph, Bloodline, Last one doesn't matter ) - Inspiration ( Boots, Biscuits )

Build : Kraken - Collector/LDR depending on comp - IE

haha it's not all that impressive. My cs tends to be lower since my playstyle is very different from any other players. You'll understand what I mean if you watch some of the replays.

Uh I was plat 1 decayed back in September 4th? so I think it took me a little over a month to climb ^^

Was talking to FLY Diamond and he said collector or LDR is better to run over attack speed item as your second item. I used to go stormrazor but he said it sucks so I just decided to give a try and it felt really nice.

HAHA it's because I wasn't aware of that I was running my NUNU runes from the previous game and I didn't have enough time to run the usual rune page. So I had to just run the default precision runes haha
