Well, I dunno, I feel like I'm not shutting people out enough. Like, if I just poke them when they're going in for CS, it isn't hurting them enough in lane. Yes, I'm denying gold, but until we both go back, it's starting items either way. I'm not denying experience for the most part (unless I like stand in the creepwave to make them get further away), and I'm not doing enough damage to force them to recall. Passive play suits me fine, but I think I can do more.

You're probably missing too much of your own cs. If you can get a cs advantage of 2-3 per wave it adds up ridiculously fast.

Most times my first 4-5 autos are for champions rather than creeps. If I get an advantage I run past their creeps and auto their bot lane till they both zone themselves. That should be your goal every time you come to lane.

Put 3 traps before minions spawn slightly ahead of where the 2 minion waves will meet, where you think he'll be to cs. It forces him into awkward spots to cs, so you can attack (possibly with a Q) every time he does. He spends all his mana trying to cs, you spend all your mana harassing. Let lane push as much as possible, so he can't passive farm near tower.

21/0/9 with armor pen reds, and you can choose between AD, armor pen, and health quints. You should out-cs him significantly.

I know this isn't the Cait thread, but too much good insight here, sorry >.<

At what point should I stop using my traps to deny CS and move on to using them to defend? I like to throw one into the river bush to stop potential ganks from that position if my Support isn't getting wards, and early on I also like to put them in the lane bushes to have a safe place from the enemy re positioning.

And while we're on bushes, should I be standing in them often to work with my passive, or not so my support can stay in there without me revealing them?

Cait is a great carry. You sit back and just a-move into the fight and stutter step back. If you're about to get exploded your job is to be positioned next to a wall to e over. She doesn't have to put her points into magic pen part of the tree, she has a stun, all be it an unreliable one. Sure vayne gets more raw damage, but come on. Every ad carry brings something else to the table. As for who ever said she can't 1v1 never got exhausted and blown up by a fed cait with a blood thirster and phantom dancer.

Technically speaking you and your support should just be warding to stop ganks. Traps aren't good substitutes for wards because the enemy has to walk over them for you to see them coming. Most junglers with half a brain will learn the first time that the river bush is a no go. Junglers with a whole brain will just skip the bush entirely from the get go.

Don't worry about your passive early. When you can it's nice to plunk your opponent with it, but you shouldn't sacrifice CS or bush control for it.

In regards to Cait mid, I feel she beats a lot of people.

I've seen a Cait go toe-to-toe with a LeBlanc before. Both severely damaged but Cait a bit more hps better farm and pushed the lane fairly well.

I think you do just need to drop your AD carry into mid and just go caster v caster bot. Or you could switch top if the solo is capable of holding their own.

Whatever, I guess I'm just playing the wrong champion. I just think so many people jumped on the Cait bandwagon when that magazine came out and they used her in some tournaments, but imo she still pales in comparison to most AD carries in every aspect of the game but laning. Being strong in the first 10-15 minutes doesn't make up for her lacking elsewhere. But I'm out.


I don't think you realize there are a lot of actually good players here...

Well...
Try this next time: walk through the jungle behind a Cait. SHE CAN'T DO ANYTHING. Trist will jump over you, Ez will E past you or maybe just burst you with his full kit. Vayne/Kog will just kill you. Ashe will stun/slow you and run. Cait will try to bait you into traps you can avoid, then jump away 3 inches with E.


I think that summarizes the types of teams and games he's playing. The game is very different at that elo.
