Smolder: The Most Popular and Potentially Overpowered Champion in League of Legends
Smolder, the champion from League of Legends, has become incredibly popular among players. In fact, many argue that he is currently the strongest champion after the Patch 14.5 changes. Despite Riot releasing a quick micropatch on March 7 to address some issues, it seems that the adjustments weren’t significant enough.
Nerfs to Smolder’s Abilities: Will They Be Effective?
The developer team of League of Legends shared the changes to Smolder’s abilities on X, which include nerfs to his E and R. To tone down his power, his E ability will now have fewer bolts due to an increase in the converter. Additionally, the cooldown of his ultimate ability has been increased. While it’s great to see a quick reaction from Riot with a micropatch, many players are concerned that these changes may not be enough to fix the larger issue at hand.
