Playing as Caitlyn

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Put your traps in their path

    Place Yordle Snap Trap (W) in brushes and in their path: a champion who steps on one is rooted, and revealed to you for 3 seconds.

  2. Net and trap for your headshots

    Chain 90 Caliber Net (E) and Yordle Snap Trap (W) under the slowed target: each champion netted or trapped grants you a double-range Headshot (passive).

  3. Fire your Q at a trapped target

    Fire Piltover Peacemaker (Q) at a champion caught in your trap: they take full damage, even if the shot passed through a minion first.

  4. Save your R to finish

    Save Ace in the Hole (R) to finish a low-health target that's fleeing: another enemy champion can block the shot, so fire when no one is covering them.

Playing against Draven

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Play hard when he drops an axe

    Play hard when he drops a Spinning Axe (Q): without it, he loses his bonus damage and the Blood Rush (W) reset.

  2. Aim where his axe lands

    If you have skillshots, aim where his Spinning Axe (Q) falls: he has to go there to catch it.

  3. Engage after his Stand Aside

    If you can engage, wait until Stand Aside (E) is used: it's his only spell to push you back, on a 16 to 12 second cooldown.

  4. Don't give him kills

    Don't hand him kills: with League of Draven (passive), each champion he kills gives him bonus gold based on his stored Adoration.

  5. Beware his axes at low health

    At low health, beware of Whirling Death (R), which crosses the map: it executes a champion below a threshold that grows with his Adoration.
