Who Wins
- You lose pre-6 to their superior range and poke, but have kill pressure if you can get on top of them with Nami's engage.
- Post-6 your all-in potential with R remains strong, but Zilean's R makes picks much harder to execute cleanly.
Synergy & Trading
- Look for E+auto+Q combos when Caitlyn steps up, using Nami's E buff to maximize your trade damage before retreating.
- Coordinate with Nami's Q to extend trades into full combos, as your mobility allows you to follow up on her CC reliably.
Wave Control/Roaming
- Accept being pushed in early and focus on farming safely, using Q through minions to poke when possible.
- Look for opportunities to freeze near your tower where you can run them down with Nami's help, as extended fights favor your DPS over their poke.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't E forward aggressively when Zilean has double bombs ready, as getting stunned while overextended often leads to death.
- Avoid trading in large minion waves where Caitlyn can abuse her range advantage while you're stuck dealing with minion damage.
