Heyhey. After a few weeks of working on and off on it (mostly off), it's finally finished.

I decided to experiment with something different and instead of interspersing gameplay videos throughout the guide like I did with Amumu, I've compiled them in a big "videos" section at the end. This is mainly because there are a lot less tricks to know as Caitlyn and a lot more on general gameplay which players like Hotshot, Chaox, and Westrice can demonstrate in a real game much better than a video could if it was just splashed in next to a paragraph on "positioning" or "harassing".


With that being said I'd like to know if this is a good idea or if I should go back to my old method. In addition, any feedback on walls of text being too big, etc is welcomed. Obviously feedback on the build itself is great as well.

Link can be found in signature, although the cache doesn't seem to be updating my signature at all so you can just go to my profile or click here.

Runes makez me confuzzled. Flat MR? When most bot laners deal physical damage?

I like running HP/lvl seals and MP5/lvl on most my carries.


Haha, you don't mention the main reason everyone is thinking Cait is OP. xP
ALWAYS LANE WITH A STUNNER. Like Taric, Alistar or Leona.
They stun, you place your trap under them. They're effectively locked in place for 4seconds.
If played right that's almost an unbeatable combo.
Get a person with that and you'll deal more than 50% of their HP.
Taric+Cait is ****ing unstoppable.


BT core?
List optional items, not just a section with "Core offensive items"

I KNEW I FORGOT SOMETHING

I was writing the support section but I stopped halfway and I completely forgot to put the CC section in. -_-

The section itself was written before the big support changes so I have Soraka and Sona higher than they should be.

Flat MR is generally accepted for solo lane Cait (I started work on this before Dreamhack >.>) so I forgot to shift it for duo laning - I prefer scaling MR there in any case over mana.

The core remains as a choice between I-Edge or BT since a BT rush is stronger mid-game yet the IE pumps out more damage late-game.

As for optional items I'll write that later. Good feedback.

I just take the MP5 glyphs because I get HP in seals. Having that extra little reg makes sure you never run out. But it's not necessary, by any means.


IE is always core.
BT is optional, but could be considered core. I would personally never buy BT early on unless I'm 100% sure that my teammates can protect me. Just buy Vamp Scepter instead and you'll have plenty of life steal.

Edit: forgot a word :3

HELLO CHILDREN

THIS IS AN EXAMPLE OF HOW YOU PROPERLY ADVERTISE A GUIDE WITHOUT HAVING THE MODERATORS JUMP ON YOUR NUTS

1. Write out an intelligent, well-meaning post that asks multiple questions that can be answered easily.
2. BECOME A ****ING MODERATOR

Hmmmm ...

Hmmmm ... Big ego?

Actually only 3 questions that are really not at all specific!

I got a lot of comment on my thread because I didn't specify my questions just like you! They told me that asking something like: 'I use ... runes and blablabla, is there any other option or something like that or ... does this need to be as my core or as optional ...' is allowed and what I did wasn't!

Hmmmm ... I'm screwed :D

Abusing power eh ... Let's see what we can do about that ;)

So ... is this advertising or not? My verdict: A little bit! Should it be closed: No!
