About Kai'Sa

Class: Marksman
Primary lane: Bottom

Why this matchup plays out this way

Kai'Sa is a marksman, and marksmans tend to have well-known strengths and blind spots that hold up regardless of the current patch. Picking a champion from a class that naturally answers marksmans gives you a structural edge before either of you has even loaded into the game.
