Who Wins
- Pre-6: Caitlyn-Thresh wins through superior range and poke, making it difficult to find good Q angles without taking significant damage.
- Post-6: Your team gains kill potential if you can land Q, as Samira's R combined with your full combo can burst through Thresh's peel.
Synergy & Trading
- Look for Q hooks when Thresh is out of position or has used his abilities, then immediately follow with E-R to maximize Samira's passive stacking.
- Focus on quick, decisive engages rather than extended trades where the enemy's range advantage becomes overwhelming.
Wave Control/Roaming
- Roam when the wave is pushing toward the enemy and Samira can safely farm under tower, typically after successful recalls or when the enemy duo backs.
- Mid-lane roams around level 6-7 are particularly effective when your R is available for guaranteed displacement.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't attempt Q hooks through the minion wave against Caitlyn unless you have a clear angle, as she can easily sidestep and punish with free damage.
- Avoid using E or R defensively unless it's to save Samira's life, as these tools are essential for your engage combos.
