Outplayed? I think you meant outrng'd?

SmileInABoxDec 17, 201610 votes

Probably outplayed, if he's that far behind and that squishy there was definitely outplay prior to this point.

BlâckLotusDec 17, 20163 votes

i mean theres a counter in the champions passives so you know when the headshot is up and she only has an IE so she autoattacks slow as hell maybe you should pay more attention to your enemies.

CookyPrinceDec 17, 20162 votes

Who the hell rushes IE first on caitlyn is what I want to know with nothing else apparently

What champ are you playing where you lose 50% of your health from a headshot from IE

PlanetWarwickDec 17, 20166 votes

Rammus obviously

Probably was playing Full ap Sona with no health or defensive items

Any champ that's not a tank or a bruiser honestly. Clearing those traps is a painful endeavor even for tanks once she has IE and a Zeal item completed, which wouldn't be a problem if she couldn't spam them.

Yesterday i played a game where my traps when i was actually fed were doing 360 to a tank.

I can show you a few replays. What you're saying is bullshit and i promise if i found your match in your match history or if you want to link it i can prove you wrong.

I don't care enough about the topic for all that. Plus, I don't gain anything from it. My point was that her trap spam is annoying and unnecessary. I could understand a couple traps being laid, but she can easily lay out 4 or more of those things in a short period of time, which adds up in a very tedious way. It reaches a point where only tanks and bruisers can clear them and survive.

You got outplayed by the RNGesus.

The biggest problem with cait is that she can end up doing 600 damage to champs with nothing more than an IE, passive and crit, this problem exists with vayne as well because of her q stacking crits. Most of the balancing issues with adcs would be removed if crit was reworked

Unlucky47Dec 17, 20161 votes

I agree crit is a problem but I've played enough vayne to know that her tumble auto with a crit and ie isnt going to do half as much damage as caitlyn.

Jeanne fan clubDec 17, 20161 votes

Well right of course, Im just saying that crit is contributing to more problems than just caitlyn.

Guy Fox TeemoDec 17, 20162 votes

Crit isn't a problem I don't know why people think this. IF we removed crit every adc would be Ashe.

Nothing would seperate them. They all have burst, but they all have different burst patterns. Also removing Crit would require an immense amount of rebalancing that could end up not being even beneficial in the end.

Jeanne fan clubDec 18, 20161 votes

its a completely game changing element that relies solely on rng, there are good rng elements that are healthy, however, crit is unhealthy in the sense that it scales way too hard. early game its only the difference of like 150 to 300, however late game it can be the difference of 300 to 750, amplified by attack speed and augments from champ kits.

Crit is the sole reason adc's are super busted right now, only the adc's that build crit are strong. the class has become solely based around crit at this point. This kind of design creates a bottleneck of ideas where every adc has to have crit in mind. if adc's didnt have to be balanced with crit in mind, all adc's could be much more unique and pursue their individual niche. ADC's would need a phsycal damage compensation though, considering other classes would end up out-dpsing them.

maybe crit doesnt even need to be removed, maybe it should become more like lethality where it starts out weak and ramps up in the end. Many late game adc's are abusing the early stats crit gives, vayne and twitch are great examples of this.

Spaceman5pffDec 18, 20161 votes

It is when her auto + shiv damage + the tumble bonus damage ALL crit that we have an issue

thank god vayne is out of the picture woo

LuxannaVeritasDec 17, 20161 votes

Previously Vayne, now Caitlyn, Zed Yasuo and Riven in the near past... what's next, Urgot?

Sona PingDec 17, 20165 votes

Then stop falling that far behind a champion and it will fix itself.

doublelift fgDec 17, 201610 votes

Stop falling behind?

posting on board is as useless as drinking vodka

Sona PingDec 17, 20169 votes

What use did you expect from posting "This one time, at Summoner's Rift, I took a bunch of damage from a champion."?

TotalJerkDec 17, 20168 votes

Okay your post is just low effort bitching, even if its true. Did you expect any smart in-depth answers to your slapped together rant?

LuxannaVeritasDec 17, 20162 votes

I agree; this just seems like a "I'm tilted so this champion seems overpowered to me" argument.

And, as I've been saying to everyone who complains about a champion, LEARN their WEAKNESSES and COUNTERS. No champion is without a counter or a weakness.

Pentium2Dec 17, 201616 votes

Im confused, posting on boards is sure useless, but drinking vodka is far from being useless.

SpoofghoulDec 17, 20163 votes

I know right

You should always drink a bottle of vodka after visiting boards it helps you forget the buffoonish things you would otherwise not be able to unread :D

So vodka sure is useful sometimes!

Mr BoopsmoochDec 18, 20162 votes

Yes. that's why you should report this shitty thread requesting a delete

Unlucky47Dec 17, 20165 votes

ayy lmao guess who beat caitlyn in lane as mf and still get two shotted the moment she got ie and runnans with a passive/crit/ult combo.

Illâoi Evê SiônDec 17, 20163 votes

(cough) Hyper synergy with the Crit stats (cough)

MrNarukamiDec 17, 20163 votes

Caitlyn + IE = you lost the laning phase, either due to her skill, or your negligence to starve her of kills/minions, or you fed like a bitch. You have to harass her out of lane, and then get rid of her traps where she A) has to come back and try to fight you, or B) has to run back to base because her HP has been so heavily depleted. What a lot of people don't know is that her traps can be safely triggered, and smart players will poke and harass at safe distances by A) not overextending, or B) coordinating with their support.

Literally all you have to do is just play safe, and play smart, lure her down to get smacked, and poke and harass like no tomorrow. As a Caitlyn main, I can tell you all of her weaknesses.

HueboneDec 18, 20162 votes

Yeah, let's harass a lane bully out of lane with her 650 range. The only way to do that is battle of the supports, and god knows how long that will work.

dominusxDec 17, 20162 votes

you just got outplayed by the adc and its extremenly high skillcap. He presses mb2 on you what else do you need to feel outplayed? A Riven doing an 8button combo on you flawlessy to oneshot you? dont make me laugh

Cait uses E or W, then right clicks. Sure, "outplayed". It's basically like playing Tryndamere and saying "outplayed".

Inb4 Cait main trying desperately to defend her. Dont worry. nerfs are coming son. Time to uninstall i guess since ure so bad at most adcs

dominusxDec 18, 20162 votes

dw the only adc i play is getting buffed next patch. i'll show all these trash adc mains how easy their role truly is.

Dominick DestineDec 17, 20161 votes

Just pink ward the spear traps.

Ariel the CruelDec 18, 20161 votes

Or stop playing Yordles. Her traps are design specifically for them. ;p

invisiblecat1Dec 17, 20161 votes

Similar to how Trynd's early game relies on how many crits you can get in an exchange

CookyPrinceDec 17, 20161 votes

Did you step on a trap maxing caitlyn's trap? For one the cait must be bad if she's maxing traps and rushing IE and I wonder how you lost to her

Surfer AsheDec 17, 20161 votes

Cait has IE and RPC*

I also stepped in a trap*

You did get outplayed

AhristocatsDec 18, 20162 votes

if he said 20% crit chance, i think he didn't step into a trap

Leon EtoileDec 18, 20161 votes

he's a level 8 account (poster)..

HazyCloud7Dec 18, 20161 votes

Well at least she needs to auto attack 6 times to get her headshot ready right?

Wait a minute... item 3085

Ariel the CruelDec 18, 20161 votes

ThalmorDid911Dec 18, 20161 votes

honestly the only thing i find oppressive about her despite her cancerously long range and headshot dammage early on is her traps. Those are what makes me ban her when i get the chance and theres no one better to ban. "walk around them, don't step on them" sure, i'll walk around this wall to avoid the traps and get caught in a small space where their team can unload everything onto my team, 3-5 traps lasting for 90 seconds at all ranks that can't be disabled unless you step on them or let them time out. If you step on it thats a 2 second immobilization and an increased headshot to the face. It just gets frustrating completely having to fight under caitlyns terms during a teamfight or siege, just give them a disable option or something and work around it so it doesn't completely make them unviable just counterable.

Mr KillalotDec 18, 20161 votes

Lol rediculous. She would have to be much further ahead than just IE to take half your health with a headshot. More over-the-top exaggerations. Straight bs. Move along.
