Smolder vs Malzahar

Smolder lore:

Hidden amongst the craggy cliffs of the Noxian frontier, under the watchful eyes of his mother, a young dragon is learning what it means to be heir to the Camavoran imperial dragon lineage. Playful and eager to grow up, Smolder looks for any excuse to practice his burgeoning abilities. Though he's still a fledgling, his skills are nothing to sneeze at, easily setting fire to anything that burns.

Smolder tips:

  • Smolder has a vulnerable early game. Focus on passive stacking and staying alive to become a strong dragon later!
  • Smolder relies on his team to keep him safe. Try to find allies who can help you against enemy threats.
  • Smolder can do a lot of damage to areas of enemies. Look for attack opportunities where the enemies are close together.

Playing Against Smolder

  • Smolder relies on his team for safety. Attack him when his team can't save him.
  • Don't group up when facing Smolder!
  • Smolder is very vulnerable in the early stages. Try to take advantage of his weakness before he can learn how to be a dragon!
  • Smolders flight can be interrupted by hard CC and impacted by slows.
