When exactly do you plan to buff Caitlyn, Riot?

I remember when you could pick her to be an early game lane bully who did decently in mid game but typically fell off late game due to other adc's scaling well

Now her early game is shit especially compared to the damage some adc's can put out right now (ezreal, xayah, jinx etc.)

Her mid game is below average since after 2-3 items that's when other adc's are killing people in 3 hits while it takes 30 for caitlyn to dent someones hp bar

Her late game is probably the worst of any adc in the game, her damage falls off so much harder than anybody else and her lack of "cheats" in her kit can't keep her alive as long as others.

Lucian gets CD on his dash every passive auto Ezreal gets CD on his E for hitting his Q Jinx gets massive MS steroid every kill/assist Tristana gets a reset on her Jump every kill/assist(Don't remember if they removed this part) and full bomb explosion Twitch resets his Q on kills/assist(Again can't recall if its on assist or if that got removed ill have to check) Sivir is in a similar state but she gives her entire team a massive MS steroid and has a spellshield + MS on passive Jhin gets a MS steroid every Crit (and 4th shot tho that's a crit)

Caitlyn just doesn't do anything in this game anymore and lost everything she was good at while someone like Ezreal or tristana gets to do the exact same thing but better

She has a motherfucking standard 650 ranged whilst being twice a nuisance with item 3094 , why are you comparing her to short-ranged champions for.

Sure, with autos that do almost no damage whereas if anybody else autos her that's a chunk of her hp bar.

She has an in-built Crit passive in her kit similar to Jhin's whilst can be proc from traps & hitting her E, but let's just ignore that...

item 3143 Jhin's is an execute. His gets hurt way less than Caitlyn's does by defenses. You must have a hatred for Caitlyn if you think she's anything beyond garbage right now

I think that is a bit of a exaggeration. She can still push, she does decent burst damage, IMO shes fine. What should actually be said all the other ADCs are overtuned.

She doesn't do any of that better than any other adc.

The entire niche caitlyn had was her long range allowing her to bully and pressure lanes slowing down late game champions by using her strong early game.

She easily does the least amount of damage of any adc throughout the other games. Instead of nerfing an entire class just buff caitlyn to be on par with them.

Then start nerfing the damage tanks do while increasing their defensive abilities allowing for adc's to remain the way they are while not allowing them to steamroll the games

Caitlyn is a very mechanically intensive champion and has a high skill ceiling.

She does need compensation buffs after she got tossed into the dumpster.
