Smolder
Smolder Abilities Rundown
Passive – Dragon Practice
Smolder gains stacks of Dragon Practice whenever he kills a unit with Super Scorcher Breath or hits an enemy champion with an ability. Each stack increases the damage of his basic abilities.
Q – Super Scorcher Breath
Smolder shoots a ball of flame at his target. This ability evolves as he gains stacks of Dragon Practice. At the first tier, it explodes around the target. At the second tier, it sends out extra explosions beyond the target. At the final tier, it deals true damage over time and executes low-health enemies.
W – Achooo!
Smolder sneezes out a fiery glob that damages and slows enemies. Hitting an enemy champion sparks an explosion around them.
E – Flap, Flap, Flap
Smolder takes flight, gaining Move Speed and ignoring terrain for a short time. He fires a barrage of flame at an enemy in range, prioritizing enemy champions with the lowest health.
R – MMOOOMMMM!
Smolder calls out to his mom for help. She breathes a huge wave of fire over a long range, damaging enemies in her path. Those caught in the center are slowed and take extra damage. If she hits Smolder, the flames heal him.

🔥My mom’s the biggest, baddest dragon around, and she’s gonna burn you 🐲
Good news everyone! Smolder’s hitting PBE soon and we’re all excited for you take take flight as the Fiery Fledgling!
I’m a QA Engineer on the Champs team and I’m making a thread to collect feedback and post announcements for any updates to Smolder. We have around a week before locking in any changes for his release, so will be keeping an eye out and sharing feedback with the team for possible adjustments. Some of these were heard of and we are already making some changes to the textures on his face for base skin.
Smolder is also not releasing during the 14.2 patch cycle and will be released in 14.3, so he’ll have an extended PBE period.
Here’s a rundown on his kit:
P – Dragon Practice: Hitting enemy champs with abilities and killing enemies with Q grants him a stack of Dragon Practice, increasing the damage of Smolder’s basic abilities
Q – Super Scorcher Breath: Spews fire at a target. Based on the number of stacks, the ability evolves. 25 stacks = Creates an AOE explosion on Q’s target. 125 Stacks = Sends explosions behind the target. 225 = Burns the target for a few seconds. Executes enemies below a certain threshold.
W – Achooo! : Smolder sneezes a globule of fire that damages and slows targets hit. Hitting champs creates a small explosion around the area of impact
E – Flap, Flap, Flap: Takes flight with extra move speed and ignores terrain. Will launch a barrage of attacks on enemies inside Smolder’s range. The number of attacks increases with crit.
R – MMOOOMMMM!: Smolder calls for his mom’s help and she breathes fire down lane damaging and slowing enemies. Heals Smolder if he’s inside the fire.
If you encounter any in-game bugs while playing Smolder and/or his Heavenscale skin, please let us know by dropping some info here in the thread or through our Bug Reporting Tool. Providing repro steps and a video are very helpful for debugging as well!
Have a great day and see you on the rift!

Spell SFX Update
Spell SFX Update – Feedback Thread
Heyo!
Riot Pehrek here to collect feedback on some changes our audio team has been hard at work at!
Up till now, spell SFX in League of Legends play from a ‘central’ position from the player’s POV when the camera was focused on the location of the action. But this only happened for on-screen abilities while off-screen abilities were positioned in the area where it is happening (considering left/centered/right).
To help improve gameplay clarity, especially in team fights, the Audio team has made an update to this system to play SFX based on the position of the spell on-screen, with the positions in question being Left, Centered, and Right. So basically, you’ll hear SFX more from left and right instead of just centered when abilities are being cast on-screen.
Here’s a link for an example video of how this shows in-game, with FIGHT A being the current Live audio version and FIGHT B the updated one.
Please hit up this thread with any feedback or issues encountered or DM Riot_Wubs!
Thank you so much and see you on the Rift.
