Playing as Caitlyn

  • Make use of her Yordle Snap Traps by placing them pre-emptively to ensure that you'll have one off of cooldown during combat.
  • Avoid using Ace in the Hole in large team melees as it might be blocked by the wrong target.
  • Fire 90 Caliber Net away from the opponent to close the gap or hop over walls.

Playing against Caitlyn

  • Keep behind allied minions if Caitlyn is harassing you with Piltover Peacemaker (it deals less damage with each subsequent target).
  • You can intercept Ace in the Hole's missile from hitting an ally if you stand in its path.
