Pure Speculation

So, Caitlyn is getting a rework. I don't mean to talk balance on this, but my first serious thoughts on a new kit show a lot of fun potential. here they are: Caitlyn

Passive: Sniper

http://ddragon.leagueoflegends.com/cdn/5.19.1/img/passive/Caitlyn_Headshot.png http://ddragon.leagueoflegends.com/cdn/5.19.1/img/spell/CaitlynAceintheHole.png Caitlyn gains a stack of Sniper every time she makes a basic attack or uses a skill. on reaching 6 stacks, her next basic attack gains double range and +X damage.

Q: I have absolutely no Idea:

have fun with it CertainlyT. (no dashes allowed.)

W: Handcuffs? How about FootCuffs?

http://ddragon.leagueoflegends.com/cdn/5.19.1/img/spell/CaitlynYordleTrap.png Exactly as it.

E: Hat Trick / Shrapnel bombs

http://ddragon.leagueoflegends.com/cdn/5.19.1/img/spell/ZiggsE.png Caitlyn lays a circular pattern of 5 explosive land mines. Each landmine is hidden under a black top hat. They take ~0.5 seconds to set up. on detonation these mines deal low-mid damage, slow their targets, and apply a stacking debuff. Caitlyn deals % increased damage to targets for each stack of this debuff they carry.

R: Under Arrest

http://ddragon.leagueoflegends.com/cdn/5.19.1/img/spell/CaitlynEntrapment.png http://ddragon.leagueoflegends.com/cdn/5.19.1/img/spell/CaitlynAceintheHole.png Works like her current R, but deals less damage, slightly shorter range, knocks her target back slightly, and roots them for X seconds.

Oh . . . CertainlyT is making one of my favorite mid laners? Shucks, I don't want to win lane and immediately be called more broken than the chinese government.

TBH I like the idea of her passive stacking off of spells as well as attacks, and also having increased range :o both of those are very cool!

Not going to say too much, until I get some idea on what Riot is trying to preserve in her kit.

If they go with the Sniper idea. Then she probably needs a little works. While having the highest normal range. She situationally becomes out ranged by Kog, Jinx, and Twitch, and out ranged by Trist after a Certain level. But if Cait was to have any more range, it would also need to have a more limiting factor to it. (Perhaps something targets specific, as she's sniping someone.)

when I looked, that seemed to be one of the really unique things she had as a marksman. It makes me happy that someone at riot thought to emphasize it too.

Yeah, like I said, this draft didn't have a lot of balance considerations. What other kind of changes (or items for her empty Q slot) do you guys have?
