If Cait's mid game is supposed to be weak...

Why does she reach late game with 3 items?

item 3085 item 3031 item 3072 Now anything not a tank is melted, and tanks just need a bit of kiting.

With how cheap Runaans is, Cait's strong early game easily gets her to item 3085 item 3031 . So... end the game while behind in the time it takes for Cait to get BT, or lose because hypercarry.

item 3035 alone is gg for tanks, too.

how is she not weak mid game? cait is a lane bully who is super strong lvl 1 with her Q who can shove lane under turret... after 1st back in lane any adc who is even with her with the same item flat out beats her cuz they either flat out scale her after lvl 1 or have more dps then cait. caits attack speed is pretty bad... she dont have an attack speed steroid like alot of adcs, her passive is easy to tell when its up and to play around it by making her safe it to hit enemy with headshot and miss cs or use it on cs and miss the damage on the enemy. her traps arent as dominate outside of lane due to the fact that you are in more open map area

Sure she doesn't have a good attack speed boost (she has an artificial attack speed boost on her passive to make attack speed items worse on her while keeping her base (no items/boosts) attack speed normal), but she's got a pretty damn good AD boost which is basically ~65% bonus AD every 3 shots, so ~22% bonus AD.

You can't play around it because it's literally every 3rd shot.

Plus, I'm not talking about her mid game not being bad (although that's what the title says). I'm saying her mid game is over way too quickly, and her item 3085 item 3031 item 3072 is far too strong. I don't care if it's not as good as some other ADC's, but it's too strong for someone who is amazing both early and late game.

cait has a win rate of 50.44% with a 27% pick rate... if anything she is pretty damn balanced
