Hello, you asked me to do a review for your caitlyn guide,as per request here

You've made good progress on this guide. I remember when whole sections of this guide were copy/pasted from your vayne guide lol. Anyways, it's come a long way since then. There are still some awkward sections that your guide has though, and some other sections that could really use some more elaboration. I hope you don't mind, but I chose to mark up your guide in pen, and just scan my review as a PDF. I've found that that way, I can really show you the sections that could use some work, and what you can do to improve them.

I forgot to give your guide a score though :S Sorry about that. If you'd like to know your score, and what parts of the guide caused you to lose points, just let me know, and i'll scan an updated version of my review, that'll have your score on it :)

Anyways, here you go
review


If you can't read something i wrote, just PM me the page number of the section that you can't read and i'll type it out for you :)
If there was one section that you could improve on, it is talking more about your gameplay with those videos. I wrote a lot about that, and if you can really talk more about that section, and how you played team fights with caitlyn, then i'll revisit your guide and consider upvoting it (or scouting it if i get enough +rep :P)

Anyways, thanks a lot for your time, and I hope you got something out of my review. If you thought my review was helpful, throw me a +rep - it really means a lot to me :)

Version 2.1 is out and includes:
  • Slight changes in terms of itemisation
  • Some changes in the matchups
  • More detailed and correct explanations
  • Better coding in the "Laning" and "Post-Lane Phase" sections
  • Fixed some spelling/grammar errors

Special thanks to Banaman, Foxy Riven and Levask for reviewing the guide and giving tips/making corrections. Also huge credits to jamesspongbog for coding and revamping some sections.

Thanks for the feedback and the support!

Strongly dislike LW in core build. LW is starting to fall out of favour as standard 3rd item because it's situational and often doesn't stack up against the likes of BT third. When that is concerned, my standard rule of thumb is: only go LW if the enemy team has AT LEAST two major armor items or a FULL tank in top lane.

Secondly, BotRK sucks on cait, don't bother with it. Also, I think you should mention Banshee's > GA in cheat sheet. GA is falling out of favour for ADCs.

Finally, I'm having a hard time finding a matchup I actually agree with. For example: Kog'maw is a HARD matchup for Caitlyn, way harder than e.g. tristana and vayne definitely isn't a walk over either (because you 100% rely on shutting her down pre-6). Also sivir is easy as ****.


Fair enough. I understand your points but would like to respond to this.

On LW: Fair enough. I think I've mentioned in the guide that there is no point in buying it if they have low armor anyways(maybe I've not, I do not really remember). However, I always end up buying it in the end since Randuin's Omen and on some champions Frozen Heart are really popular.

BotRK: I am kind of confused. One diamond says that I should present BotRK in a better way and another claims it is utter ****. Please shed light into this.

GA and Matchups: True that. Note that these parts are kinda outdated. Also I do not think that Kog'Maw is that hard. Probably you're right as your skill level is much higher than mine and you have better game knowledge.

I have a day off school tomorrow so I will start changing/updating stuff very soon. Is there a way I can get your potential upvote?

Thanks for the feedback everyone!

They are not really 1-line explanations. Most of them, even the easiest ones have like at least 3-4 sentences. I believe that if ones reads the laning phase section and the matchups in the cheatsheet can get a really good idea of what to do against each opponent. Other than that, Caitlyn has very few to no impossible(or very hard if you wish) matchups to make a super-detailed section.

@Build & Itemisation: I will make more some changes on the cheatsheet and items sections on friday.

@Runes: I feel like Mana Regen glyphs are kind of a noob trap. Usually, I can manage my mana or just buy Mana Potions. I think one benefits more from the damage reduction that MR glyphs provide. I will also consider Warlord a bit more carefully.

@Summoner Spells: Will add.

@Laning: Some nice information you gave me there. I will definately include these in the guide.

Thanks for the review and the vote! +Rep for you!

P.S. My computer cannot record so I cannot include videos and I am terrible at editing images. I will see what I can do, though. Oh...and matchups are in the cheatsheet.

Here's my review for your guide:

Lets start off with the overall appearance of the guide and move into more detailed stuff later on.
Your guide looks clean and professional with a lot of content, but I think it could use some more colored text to make your guide look more lively and less like a brick wall.

Build



Runes and Masteries



Summoner Spells



Itemization Section



Laning Section



Things you could add would be a section on ADC match ups as well as some videos that demonstrate stuff like the E+Q combo, terrain that you can use 90 Caliber Net to get across ect.




VERDICT: While the guide has several flaws it is still a very good and in depth guide worthy of my up vote so long as you keep it up to date and fix the problems mentioned in the reviews that you have received.
