Who Wins
- You lose pre-6 all-ins despite your shields because Pyke's hook-stun combo combined with Caitlyn's headshot damage exceeds your mitigation.
- Post-6 remains difficult as Pyke's execute ignores your shielding while Caitlyn's range makes counter-engage challenging.
Synergy & Trading
- Use R-empowered Q to poke from maximum range, then shield Miss Fortune when enemies try to trade back.
- Focus on short trades with Q-W combo to proc Arcane Comet while using movement speed to help Miss Fortune reposition safely.
Wave Control/Roaming
- Avoid roaming as Miss Fortune needs constant protection from Pyke's hook threat and Caitlyn's range pressure.
- Your presence is crucial for keeping Miss Fortune alive and providing the shields necessary to survive laning phase.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't waste R on empowered shields when enemies aren't committing to trades as you'll lack damage threat.
- Avoid standing in line with Miss Fortune against Pyke hooks as getting caught means losing your ability to protect your ADC entirely.
