How to Beat Caitlyn as Sivir (ADC)

The Sivir versus Caitlyn matchup as ADC is favorable with proper positioning. Use your statistical advantage and prevent the opponent from realizing their potential.

Except for rare builds, Sivir deals physical damage. Focus on eliminating enemy carries. Caitlyn deals mainly physical damage (93.25%), additional items against this damage type may be required against snowballing or aggressive play.

An important advantage of Sivir is higher farming statistics (ranked 1st among role champions) (versus 24th for Caitlyn), which provides a stable gold advantage in extended games and allows faster access to key items. Meanwhile, their lower KDA (2.1 versus 2.6) suggests they are less effective in team fights.

Key aspects of the Sivir ADC versus Caitlyn ADC matchup

Despite the statistical advantage in the matchup, overconfidence can be the main mistake. It is important for the Sivir player to maintain constant pressure on Caitlyn, not allowing the opponent to safely scale up, and actively use the advantage gained to help their team.

Sivir tips:

  • Sivir's Boomerang Blade returns to her after reaching the max range, so you can shift position to hit enemies who would otherwise have evaded it.
  • Ricochet resets Sivir's basic attack timer on activation, so activating this immediately after landing a normal basic attack will maximize damage output.
  • Try saving Spell Shield for enemy abilities that can disable you such as stuns and roots.

Playing Against Caitlyn

  • Keep behind allied minions if Caitlyn is harassing you with Piltover Peacemaker (it deals less damage with each subsequent target).
  • You can intercept Ace in the Hole's missile from hitting an ally if you stand in its path.
