Introduction to Catherine with her mega punches ( 1 ) Top
WARNING: I am not that good at Catherine.
You might think Catherine will never get you. You might think Catherine sucks. But becareful, a well played Catherine will burst you down before you have the time to respond at all.
Catherine is quite a special tank. She relies on her ability, StormGuard or her heroic perk to get tanky. She is great at chasing with her awesome dashing stun along with a silence that will knock your teeth off. Building cooldown reduction on Catherine will allow her to spam her shield or stuns more quickly, allowing more sustain. However, it will reduce your damage when you don't build some crystal power. Your call.
the Build ( 2 ) Top
Starting Items no questions asked.
Life spring seriously boosts your stormguard to a certain amount of damage. Get it quickly, then immediately try and rush it into a fountain of renewal. Fountain of renewal will make you more tanky. Did you know, Catherine have very low heal for a tank? But it's made up with her heroic perk and stormguard. This item here will add more health, and also, the active allows you to heal! When your in a teamfight, if you see somebody is dying, use your heal. Also, don't use it in the last second when your at very low health, because you might die before the effect takes place, remember, it's still a heal over time.
The next thing is Warhorn. But then, get stormguard banner first, then upgrade your boots to travel boots. Only then you should continue building your Warhorn.
Obviously get a Clockwork next to lower your Cooldown reductions. No explanations needed, right?
Aftershock boosts your merciless pursuit damage by quite a lot. Since you can just spam it, it's awesome. The reason why I choose aftershock instead of tension bow is because aftershock gives you Crystal power, while tension bow gives you weapon power. And it's better to have more of a boost for your abilities.
The last thing... Crucible. It enhance fountain of renewal's active skill even more and have reflex block. The reason why I didn't pick aegis is because Ringo's ultimate pierce through any kind of defense. But then, not Catherine's StormGuard. So use it when the flaming fireball's about to hit you. Even if there's no Ringo in the enemy team, it still after all, makes fountain of renewal's active skill heal more, so yeah!
Tips and Tricks ( 3 ) Top
1. Obviously, Catherine is a very good chaser. So always chase when possible, unless you don't know where your enemies are. Then don't.
2. Torch your jungle up, trust me, it will be useful. Just don't use more than 3 mines.
3. Use your ultimate to snipe fleeing enemy down! But try not to if you can catch him, since the chances of working are quite low.
4. Do this combo: blast Tremor, merciless pursuit, StormGuard, merciless pursuit. It will start a teamfight... In your favour. Just make sure to use blast tremor in a bush.
5. Use merciless pursuit to see if bushes are hiding anyone. Just quickly dip out of it when you go in.
6. Always stun enemies when you see a chance. You will get one armor for your heroic perk.
