Hey everyone! I'm working on a small project and I wanted the communities honest-to-god opinions on Caitlyn. I'm not saying she's good or bad, but I, personally, feel like her gameplay doesn't feel satisfying / doesn't reflect the character well enough relative to other champions. For example, Caitlyn's ulti range is 2000/2500/3000. For reference, Jhin's W, deadly flourish, has a range of 2500 and his ulti has a range of 3000. I understand not every champion can or should be ulti-centric champions, but wouldn't you feel dissatisfied if both you and jhin met with low hp at 2500 units away and he could kill you with his W, and your ult (As the sniper of league) can't even reach him until level 11? (That's well into the mid game!)

Caitlyn's more of a "sharpshooter" than a "true sniper." That's not an issue; Caitlyn provides consistent damage from long range with accurate shots, Jhin provides high damage shots but with far more down time between. In terms of gameplay niche, Caitlyn provides constant pressure and control over the game; she's incredibly powerful in the right hands (go watch Stixxay)

Satisfying to play. But not balanced. What's the point of giving a lane bully an extremely powerful late game scaling? There's no point of picking any late game or mid game champs if the meta is just pick lane bullies that have amazing late scaling. It's like Riot's trying to force you to only pick between a pool of like 2 champs.

Caitlyn auto attack animation just drives me nuts... I can't seem to last hit with the thing...argh!.

While I never seem to miss Ashe .

Is it common to have ADCs feels so radically different with respect to just farming minions?

Caitlyn's not a sniper, she's a sheriff.
