Guide: Smolder
🕑 Added 2024-02-13 14:29:52 +0000 UTCSome explanations on how to play and be efficient at Smolder.
Got a bit unlucky as my electricity died halfway through recording this, so I had to rerecord and lost a lot of time talking about some other things.
Any questions/suggestions let me know below or on discord

Mostly melee champions, Akali, Galio etc are quite easy to play for me
Fezz lock
what matchups would you say are free for smolder?
Fezz lock
more smolder content! amazing stuff

You cannot buy Trinity and Iceborn in the same build, as Sheen effect is completely wasted
Imre Taba
Oh just realized you cannot buy those 2 items together anyway because of the limitation, it was a useless question :D
Imre Taba
If you opt to go for iceborn early against physical comp that replaces trinity or you should still buy it after that?
Nemesis
The answer to that is on my tierlist. I don't recommend it, not because its weak, but because players don't play it efficiently enough (he has about 46% winrate in emerald and diamond because people don't play it well)

hey nemesis, is smolder mid playable in emerald/diamond?
Shubh
Really like how you show both melee and range matchups. Thanks!
Nemesis
No! Not worth picking up, doesn't have great AP scales, you don't want to ever buy Mejai, you delay other items and it clogs your inventory.
thanks for the guide! is dark seal a good early base buy?
Vhaatra
Feel like I could just queue up and play Smolder after watching this, really like the laning phase commentary as there were a lot of fundamental things to pick up
