Who Wins
- Pre-6 you win through sustain and zone control with W/E, becoming even stronger post-6 with R healing and damage in extended fights.
- Your E pull setups are crucial for Caitlyn's follow-up damage.
Synergy & Trading
- Use W to zone enemies from CS then follow with E pulls for Caitlyn's headshot combos and trap placements.
- Your passive soul collection from E hits provides sustain advantage in extended trades.
Wave Control/Roaming
- Avoid roaming early as you're most effective in lane with Caitlyn's range advantage - focus on deep warding and controlling river instead.
- Only roam for guaranteed plays or when Caitlyn can safely farm alone.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't waste E pulls on spell-shielded Sivir or when Lux can immediately Q bind Caitlyn during your animation.
- Avoid using R in minion waves where enemies can easily disengage and waste your ultimate cooldown.
