Who Wins
- Pre-6: You win trades by blocking Kalista's damage with W and using passive to lock her down.
- Post-6: You maintain advantage through superior disengage tools and ability to neutralize their all-in attempts.
Synergy & Trading
- Position between enemies and Caitlyn, using W to block Kalista's spears and Q to proc passive when they step up.
- Auto-attack to stack passive quickly, then let Caitlyn follow up with damage while you tank.
Wave Control/Roaming
- Only roam when Caitlyn has significant wave advantage and vision control, typically after successful trades or when enemies are low.
- Short roams to river/jungle are safer than full mid lane rotations.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't waste W cooldown on minor poke as you'll be vulnerable to Leona's engage.
- Avoid using Q when Leona is in E range of Caitlyn as you won't be able to block her follow-up engage.
