Just yesterday, Riot Games unveiled a teaser for League of Legends' upcoming dragon ADC, Smolder. The anticipation for this new LoL champion is high, and while the official release is expected in early Season 14 of LoL, some leaked details about Smolder's abilities and in-game model have surfaced.
Smolder's Abilities
As anticipated for a dragon ADC, Smolder's abilities are centered around fire. In a leaked in-game image, the new champion is depicted 'spiting fire' on the Summoner's Rift. While this aligns with expectations, witnessing Smolder in action is still intriguing.
Smolder is the brand new name in League of Legend's roaster of champions. The cute little dragon ADC was revealed recently and in this article we're taking a look at all of his abilities (although they were leaked a few minutes before the offical releace)
Passive: Dragon Practice
When Smolder hits champions with abilities and kills them with Super Scorched breath, he's granted a stack of Dragon Practice. Stacking it increases his basic ability damage.
Q: Super Scorcher Breath
Smolder belches flame at his enemies. This ability evolves as it's stacked:
- 25: Damages all enemies surrounding the target.
- 125: Sends explosions behind the target that deal 75% of this spell’s damage.
- 225: Burns the target dealing max health true damage over 3 seconds. Enemy champions that drop below a total health threshold while burning are killed instantly

Smolder's Gameplay
Leaks suggest that Smolder will embody the characteristics of a typical ADC, making him a potential go-to champion for the League of Legends bot lane, akin to champions like Miss Fortune and Ashe. Described as 'super easy to play,'
Smolder will require players to focus on farming and positioning, essential aspects for any ADC champion. The community eagerly awaits to see if Smolder will become a timeless classic in the League of Legends roster or fade into obscurity like some of the newer characters.
