Who Wins

  • You win pre-6 through superior engage potential against immobile targets, though Seraphine's peel makes all-ins risky.
  • Post-6 your R-W combo becomes much stronger for picks, while Seraphine's R provides strong counter-engage.

Synergy & Trading

  • Look for W engages when Seraphine is positioned aggressively for poke or when she's low on mana from sustaining.
  • Follow up with E shield and Q for sustained damage while Caitlyn lands headshots on your target.

Wave Control/Roaming

  • Roam when bot lane is pushed and you have vision control, targeting mid lane around levels 6-9 when your R is available.
  • Time roams after successful recalls or when Smolder is farming safely under tower.

Mistakes to Avoid

  • Don't engage when Seraphine has R available and good positioning to counter-engage on Caitlyn.
  • Avoid using W without proper vision as Seraphine's E can easily interrupt your dash and leave you vulnerable.
