When do you buy your tear?
What do you replace your boots with usually if at all late game?
(Patch 13.21)
The nerfs to lethality are really low tbh. Navori and IE variants got buffed on the other hand. all builds lose R damage, however all builds maintain more Headspot Passive damage.
I always buy tear first base, depending on having a lead or disadvantage you can buy the upgraded version faster. Manamune helps with clearing waves very well, and thereby does one of the most dmg in this build.
Boots replacements are shown in the guide, because the full build shows 6 items. This can be any item, depending what is needed most in ur specific game. Most of the times it will be Axiom Arc / Prowlers Claw / Essence Reaver(IE / Navori) / Stormrazor (IE / Navori) for damage, otherwise a counterplay item.
Navori became an option due to the 13.12 changes(Caitlyn has high AD ratios)
Currently the older comments are outdated ''.
Mainly Youmuu's will be the best into squishy enemy comps/goal of damage. And thereby navori and ie can fillup their purpose into heavier frontlone enemy, thereby gaining more strength than youmuu in the duration.
IE is good when you can weave in W's and Passive hits / Navori is good for gaining access to abilities faster + ability poke.
But Youmuu movement speed adds a good synergy with the First Strik rune page, with magical footwear.
I did indeed not change Navori into the build page yet indeed. ty for mentioning ''.
Caitlyn's headshot scaling is made for the Infinity Edge Passive that grants an additional AD ratio %, Thereby Infinity Edge is the only mythic for Lethality + AD stack Caitlyn.
On top of this, I always create the biggest damage spike build for Caitlyn, which Duskblade cannot offer with its Ability Haste Mythic Passive. I also think that Duskblade its execute wont offer much combined with First Strike and Caitlyn abilities, but having execute can be good into certain enemies ofcourse.
Mentioned for *3.10*
It is mostly matchup(s) depended, which means that you have to watch all enemy treats and not only ur opponent.
- Safe, easy lanes(Kassadin) and slow poke(Lux) lanes are best with cull(+ best sustain item early on), Cull funnels the most gold into ur build as starter item.
- Thereby you can opt into longsword refillable or 3 pots if you feel confident into harder/medium matchup(s)
- If the matchup is really really awful(Akshan, Irelia, Yasuo ...) then I would recommend to go Dorans blade to mitigate the most of their all-ins and dives, due to the strength + defense of starter items.
*My own preference is mostly Cull only atm*
IE gives more damage on Passive headshots, Due to crit and IE scalings in the headshot (Keep in mind that Caitlyn Passive cannot crit, only the autohit in the headshot can crit) --> Watch Page 17 in the google Doc for full information''.
Navori Quickblades will instead deal more damage on Caitlyn's Q, E(Net Damage) and R.
