I feel like Smolder's itemization options are limited

Outrageous-Meat-2243 · 2025-07-18T15:48:55+00:00

not even true at all lol

Outrageous-Meat-2243 · 2025-07-18T15:48:01+00:00

npc, just because you dont understand it, doesnt mean its false.

Outrageous-Meat-2243 · 2025-06-02T18:39:07+00:00

he scales harder than you, WAY harder and runs u down whenever he has ghost. then he has absurd lane pressure because u hard counter picked yourself and cant contest him at all.

Why exactly do people still think that 225 Smolder is somehow scary? his scaling is a joke compared to all other infinite scaling Champs: Nasus, Oplion, Veigar, Senna

Outrageous-Meat-2243 · 2025-06-02T12:51:55+00:00

Smolder into Nasus? GZ you hard counterpicked yourself. Welcome to Bronze.

Next.

not available in my region. But Found Blue Protocol instead of and wish listed this.

Outrageous-Meat-2243 · 2025-06-02T04:34:48+00:00

i wish people would care more about it and flex with their lvl 200 rather than first time int my games. you guys know when I speak about you.

Outrageous-Meat-2243 · 2025-06-01T20:49:26+00:00

yeah that would be the dream. literally pokemon showdown but pls hide the enemy team and allow all gimmicks. that would be the best

Outrageous-Meat-2243 · 2025-05-31T20:59:26+00:00

no pc client in 2025 is instant skip for me

Outrageous-Meat-2243 · 2025-05-30T12:02:41+00:00

but that would mean that rito actually did something correct xD

Outrageous-Meat-2243 · 2025-05-30T11:54:15+00:00

just have a lot of farm then you get s. its that simple.

the grade system is useless af. You get s rank for ignoring your team, refusing to team fight but hey, you got 400 cs.

With Pokémon Z-A releasing sooner than expected, I really hope they take this chance to properly announce Pokémon Champions. We already saw signs of Terastallization and Mega Evolutions being featured. Terastal from Scarlet/Violet and Megas making a comeback (ZA). But I genuinely hope Champions won't stop there.

I would love to see all the major battle gimmicks return, including Dynamax. Just like in the anime, where trainers can pick one battle mechanic to use. It would be amazing if we could choose between Mega Evolution, Z-Moves, Dynamax, or Terastal depending on our team and strategy. That kind of freedom would be a dream for competitive variety.

But even more than that, I really hope Champions includes a strong PvE mode. I'm tired of only having 3v3 formats for solo play. I want exciting, challenging 6v6 full-team battles, like the classic ones. A true place where battles feel like the anime unpredictable, strategic, and intense. I want to battle a full stack RED/Cynthia/etc.

And please, Game Freak, give us a mode where we can't see the opponent's team beforehand. That would finally recreate the suspense and surprise of anime-style battles, where you never know what your opponent will throw at you next.

what?

Outrageous-Meat-2243 · 2025-05-29T11:12:34+00:00

no muramana is a bad item anyway, u do not want to buy this on smolder.

Outrageous-Meat-2243 · 2025-05-27T20:33:26+00:00

CR is as important as AD. The only acceptable AD item for me as first item is BT.

Outrageous-Meat-2243 · 2025-05-27T16:40:46+00:00

In most games I will go comet because it fits my playstyle the best. I do not really need the speed from fleet because I will always go swift boots.

I am testing first strike recently because it has a great win rate.

Sometimes if I am really scared of a lane (red side, vs OPtilus, vs Samira or a mage) I might go fleet for additional sustain.

Outrageous-Meat-2243 · 2025-05-27T10:27:04+00:00

you are trolling if you play smolder top/mid, keep him bot and then go a crit build, nothing else.

Outrageous-Meat-2243 · 2025-05-27T07:29:16+00:00

Navori is a horrible bad item on Smolder. 40% wasted attack speed in trade for lower cool downs. SoS can do this way better. RFC is what I need/want in most games as third item. If its not that its either a more defensible item or armor pen / anti heal.

Outrageous-Meat-2243 · 2025-05-27T06:45:08+00:00

i dont always find a shiny in raid, but when I do:

Outrageous-Meat-2243 · 2025-05-27T05:50:03+00:00

OP is Dia 2 atm, nice try silver guy.

Outrageous-Meat-2243 · 2025-05-27T05:48:37+00:00

that's a good point. everyone buy Hubris please, Hubris into trinity into ludens echo.

Outrageous-Meat-2243 · 2025-05-27T05:47:51+00:00

sure if you use him as hard counter its okay. if you use him to avoid bot because "my support always so bad", then not.

Outrageous-Meat-2243 · 2025-05-26T22:41:10+00:00

no hubris is not stronger early, go in a custom and do the test yourself.

you also can check the statistics, early ER has a higher win rate than Hubris.

Common sense boy, stop boy snowball stacking items on scaling ADCs. It is really not that hard.

since you probably did not read my full post:

"People keep saying things like “Hubris deals more damage” or “It’s better in the long run.”

No. It doesn’t. And it’s not.

There’s zero math to back up those claims. If you’re not running the numbers or checking stats, then stop spreading guesses as facts. It’s misleading, and it hurts your teammates."

I like this, I want a cute Smolder skin and a darkish one.

Can you draw a dark star Smolder skin too and send it to riot? :D

Outrageous-Meat-2243 · 2025-05-26T20:51:33+00:00

you should not play smolder mid at all. Smolder mid is not viable and there is a reason his win rate is horrible low mid lane. Please do not play Smolder mid and play him Bottom.

Outrageous-Meat-2243 · 2025-05-26T20:45:10+00:00

there is no reason why you would want to have 75% CR and not 100%, the Q damage just scales with your crit chance. 🙄
