“Caitlyn and Caitlyn should be a top 10 kid considering she's a level 50 Battle pass kit for this season honestly it's sad because there's a lot of better kits than her I just can't rank her higher and it's because she's so slow to build up and damage compared to other kids how to fix Caitlyn …”

Abilities
Dark Decay
Caitlyn's attacks are imbued with decay that damages enemies over time, dealing 2 damage per second for 2 seconds. Hitting decayed enemies multiple times will increase the strength of the decay by 25% per hit, dealing up to double the base decay damage at 4 total hits. The decay can be upgraded to deal more damage per tick, last longer, and have special effects against decaying enemies and targets.

Trivia
- Caitlyn is similar in abilities to the Bounty Hunter, with both having contracts/bounties to fulfill for rewards.
- If Caitlyn's target gets damaged from any source, falls in the void or dies, the red highlight will disappear instantly. This is most likely a bug.
- Focus is the only special effect that grants Caitlyn a setback and while also being unobtainable through contracts.
- Caitlyn is the first kit that possessed the ability to inflict Dark Decay. The second being Yamini, and the third being Hephaestus.
- Unlike Yamini and Hephaestus, Caitlyn is the only kit that can ramp her Dark Decay damage up via hitting enemies, up to +100% more decay damage after hitting an enemy four times. Yamini and Hephaestus do not have this ability, and their decay damage is locked, and cannot increase with hits.
- The Dark Decay effect functions similarly to the Fire Enchantment.
- Unlike the Fire Enchantment however, it won't deal any knockback, even if its ability is active.
- The decay armor penetration is still taken into damage calculations, further increasing dealt damage.
- Only 1 decay damage upgrade can appear in a match. It only appears if the player hasn't completed any contracts.
- Even then, it is not guaranteed to appear, meaning that players are likely to not get any decay damage upgrades in a game.
- It is unknown whether this is a bug or a decision made by the developers.
- Due to how debuff ticking is coded in BedWars, unupgraded decay deals only 2 ticks of damage despite lasting whole 3 seconds.
- If the duration is even slightly above 3 seconds, full 3 ticks of damage will occur.
- Only Diamond, Warrior and Emerald Armor are capable of giving Caitlyn special/legendary contracts (e.g, vulnerable, silence, etc). Armors like Void Armor and Juggernaut Armor are classified as armorless in Caitlyn's contract system. This is most likely another bug, especially with Void Armor, because that's obtainable via lucky blocks and fortune enchant. Also, kits that use alternatives to armor such as Eldertree, Hephaestus and Void Knight are still shown as armorless.
- The player only needs to be wearing a helmet in order to be classified with that armor tier in Caitlyn's contract system. A player with an iron helmet, leather chestplate and leggings, will be classified as iron armor. A player with no helmet, but diamond chestplate and boots will be classified as armorless.
