Who Wins
- Pre-6: Caitlyn+Nautilus wins due to superior range and hook threat forcing you into defensive positioning.
- Post-6: You gain significant kill pressure with R dodge potential against Nautilus engage, but Caitlyn's range advantage persists.
Synergy & Trading
- Use Q through minions to hit both enemies, then auto-attack for feather setup while Vel'Koz follows with Q poke.
- Your E root becomes deadly when Vel'Koz lands Q slow, allowing full combo execution.
Wave Control/Roaming
- Push waves hard early to prevent Nautilus roams and maintain minion advantage for feather positioning.
- Avoid slow-pushing into their freeze potential since Caitlyn excels at zoning you from CS.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Never use E defensively without feathers properly positioned behind enemies.
- Getting hooked by Nautilus without R available means certain death to their burst combo.
