Who Wins
- Caitlyn-Thresh wins pre-6 through superior poke and pick potential, with your Q being your only real threat tool.
- Post-6 your R combined with Nilah's engage creates strong all-in potential, but they maintain better 2v2 control overall.
Synergy & Trading
- Use W to push waves and enable Nilah's farm, then look for Q angles when enemies step up for CS or poke.
- Your best trades come from landing Q on the support, allowing Nilah to E forward with your E shield for protection.
Wave Control/Roaming
- Yes, roam frequently after shoving waves with W, especially levels 4-5 when your Q has lower cooldown.
- Look to roam when Nilah has pushed the wave and can safely farm under tower, typically after successful recalls.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't waste E shield on minor poke damage - save it for when Nilah commits to trades or to block crucial Thresh hooks.
- Avoid using Q predictably when enemies are behind minions, as missing it leaves Nilah vulnerable for 10+ seconds.
