Why the hell does Caitlyn do 1.5k+ damage to me?

I bought Ninja Tabis.

I bought 2 tank items since I had no choice or she'd one shot me.

I finally bought the tank items with the Ninja Tabi's, I expected to be able to last at least 1 second longer until I was confused on how I got deleted in 1-2 shots.

Went to check back on what happened in the video and her headshot critted 1.5k dmg to me although I had 180+ armor.

Are you serious? She didn't even have armor penetration.. She even 1 shotted my fed mid laner/adc.

She basically solo carried the whole game.. Don't get me started on her traps they refuse to fix, that FORCED my team to stay back.

"You can walk around them" Bull shit. They are LITERALLY straight across your lane in a line. I know Draven is broken (Mainly because DD btw) but please DON'T forget about this abomination named "Caitlyn" this is unhealthy.. I don't care how many times it's been said. I find it bull shit a ADC can freeze a whole damn team and if you even try to engage and get trapped goodbye to your tank when 1k+ of his hp goes away in 1 shot.

So much for "tank"

On a side note I played Caitlyn before, way to damn strong, stop defending her.

Riot you had one job.. To nerf her traps like most of the people was wanting. But no.. lets nerf something that barely touched her so she can be top tier as always.

I play Darius and I achieve the same stats as you and 1.5K is exaggerating with Headshot its more like 800-1k. Still a ridiculous number, though. You are right in one aspect and that is Caitlyn is way too strong for how safe she is. For example why is she rewarded with more damage when she uses an ESCAPE ability (giving her a Headshot against the target that gets hit by her E). Why can she put traps in a line to where your team can't even properly fight? It's BS.

Because she leaves the fuzzy cuffs at home.

No, ADCs are currently experiencing technical advantages and kept getting sweet new items, old items brought back in new ways, all while most of them are now usually pulling raw damage and crit chance from the crit stat itself. Caitlyn in particular experiences both crit chance and boosted headshot damage from critical strike. Her traps enhance it too, so pretty quickly you can get things rolling damage-wise with her. I'm surprised Trinity Force Cait never made it top, I feel like the constant headshot-trinity-net damage vomit she could provide would give her a rolling start once she went at it.

Meanwhile, trading into those goddam traps as a melee.

They'll have to give her traps a cast time eventually and that will already mean she jumps from oppressive to "only good/strong" to be honest. In the meantime I just prefer to ban her

Bullshit. Show the video.

considering how she can constantly shit out those traps, i dont understand why you cant just target them to remove them with 3 auto attacks.

they could at the very least do the azir thing and have the trap duration under enemy turrets reduced to a couple of seconds. really dont understand why this hasnt already happened. its not too much to ask.

As fiddle support about 2/3 way through a game a while back I got crit for 2100 with tabs item 3047 item 3157 . Same thing with AD bruisers this season too. Tanky as crap while doing more damage than me and my ADC (non cat) combine with same levels.. CC them but then they use there dash or what not to 1/2 hit my adc and me.

AD is really something else this season.

lmao, I had one on the enemy team today. Level 16 her headshots were critting me for 157. Get some armor, punk.

Don't stand on traps, easy game.
