The Smolder versus Ashe matchup as ADC is favorable with proper positioning. Use your statistical advantage and prevent the opponent from realizing their potential.
Except for rare builds, Smolder deals physical damage. Focus on eliminating enemy carries. Ashe deals mainly physical damage (87.33%), additional items against this damage type may be required against snowballing or aggressive play.
An important advantage of Smolder is higher farming statistics (ranked 15th among role champions) (versus 19th for Ashe), which provides a stable gold advantage in extended games and allows faster access to key items. Meanwhile, their lower KDA (2.3 versus 2.5) suggests they are less effective in team fights.
Despite the statistical advantage in the matchup, overconfidence can be the main mistake. It is important for the Smolder player to maintain constant pressure on Ashe, not allowing the opponent to safely scale up, and actively use the advantage gained to help their team.
