Smolder Matchups Overview
Smolder General information
Smolder tips and tricks
Beware of using your W, especially if the enemy hasn’t used their CC tool as you may get caught out while it’s on cooldown.
Ensure you get level 2 first so you can trade with the enemy. Take E at level 2 to potentially look for an early all-in.
To use of your Passive: try to attack the enemy as much as possible to upgrade your Q early on.
