The real ridiculous thing is how the icon for her 'true sight' is the same icon for other champion 'regular sight' / 'revealed you' abilities. Riot talks about clarity but then their _eye_cons are totally muddled.

I find that amusing.

Looking at it, yeah. And apparently we become immune to traps for 4 seconds. Which is really two seconds because we're rooted for two seconds.

What.

Caitlyn traps have

Only 1.1 s arm time allowing them to chain disgustingly well with any other hard CC
10 s recharge time in lategame
5 traps max (??!!)
2 SECONDS (!) root
9 second true sight

Isn't ALL OF THIS a little excessive?

im just annoyed that stealth champs have 9 seconds where they can't do anything.

seems like the most reasonable thing to nerf. (and maybe the arm time)

To be fair, if you step in a Cait trap, she either outplayed you or you probly deserve it.

that's kind of bullshit reasoning given they're hidden in bushes and she can have up to 5 out in the map

given she gets a 2 second root and a massive crit + full Q damage, disabling all stealth for 9 seconds is ridiculous

I'm not gonna say that the fact she can have 5 out at a time or the excessive damage she does with the follow up auto isn't ridiculous. But if you can't predict that she's gonig to put them in bushes, then you got outplayed. Outplayed in the least effort way possible and more due to your own skill than Cait's, but still outplayed. It's the equivalent of watching a Blitz walk into the brush and then not trying to position yourself out of range or on the other side of minions.

i'm saying that the punishment is disproportionate to the amount of setup Caitlyn has to do

9 seconds of true sight is ridiculous on top of the 2 second root and the damage she gets to do from you (on top of her getting extra range to hit you with for even less risk on her end). That's longer than the average teamfight and besides making it impossible to actually manage an escape if you're getting chased, she has 9 seconds to pick you off with her ult.

it's too much
