Synergy & Trading

  • Use E to speed Caitlyn for aggressive positioning or slow enemies trying to engage, then follow with Q-W-Q for damage.
  • Your double bomb combo works well when enemies are slowed and Caitlyn can follow up.

Wave Control/Roaming

  • You can roam mid when bot lane is pushed and safe, especially post-6 when your R provides game-changing utility.
  • Time roams around your passive or when Caitlyn has wave control.

Mistakes to Avoid

  • Don't use E carelessly for minor positioning as it's your main tool against Samira engages.
  • Avoid placing Q bombs randomly without setup as good players will easily dodge them without your E slow.
