Caitlyn is anti-fun

Not saying she's op (which she is, but that's beside the point). She is a bully at every stage of the game. She pokes and prods at you, and you can't fight back because she does it safely from her massive range. Her traps are the most oppressive part of her kit though. They cannot be disarmed without eating a huge crit.

Let's look at another extremely safe ADC: Ezreal pays for his safety through his damage. He has a power trough during his tear stacking. He doesn't have good AoE and deals less DPS than other ADCs. He is balanced.

Caitlyn has some of the highest damage and scaling of any ADC. She has the longest auto attack range. She has an escape. She has the best zoning and control of any marksman. She has no weak point.

All of this amounts to her being picked every game and sapping the fun out of it.

Yeah, she's frustrating to fight. If she has a long ranged poke support then bot lane is kinda slow.

I like how both her escape and her traps are AA resets when they hit people.

Sivir can disarm her traps w/ spell shield. It's like free mana for her all lane phase. Also sivir has enough wave clear that she can effectively ignore having to trade. Caitlyn is incredibly weak once lane phase ends until she gets 2 items completed. It's her mid-game weakness. She is annoying though in most cases

Oh, you actually think Cait is high damage.

How cute.
