Who Wins

  • Pre-6: You win through hook threat and superior all-in potential once you land Q.
  • Post-6: Xayah's R makes engages riskier, but your R guarantees follow-up if she doesn't have it available.

Synergy & Trading

  • Land Q first, then immediately follow with auto+W+E combo while Caitlyn places W trap for guaranteed headshot.
  • Your passive root ensures Caitlyn can land full damage combo safely.

Wave Control/Roaming

  • Roam mid or jungle after level 3 when lane is pushed and Caitlyn can handle 1v2 safely.
  • Time roams with enemy recalls or when they're low on mana for guaranteed impact.

Mistakes to Avoid

  • Never engage without confirming Xayah's R cooldown or when she has feathers positioned behind your team.
  • Mistimed hooks give them free poke windows and objective control.
