Who Wins
- You win level 2 all-ins with Q mobility and W true damage, and maintain advantage at level 6 with R stealth and increased mobility.
- Your burst potential and kiting ability outclass Smolder's weak early game even through Braum's protection.
Synergy & Trading
- Use Q to dodge Braum Q, then immediately auto-Q-auto for W proc when he's on cooldown.
- Focus Smolder when Braum abilities are down, using your superior range and mobility to kite back after trading.
Wave Control/Roaming
- Look to freeze the wave near your tower to deny Smolder stacks and create all-in opportunities.
- Push for level 2 first, then maintain pressure through superior trading power and zone control.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't get caught by Braum Q when going for aggressive trades as his passive can lock you down for enemy jungle ganks.
- Avoid overextending without vision as Smolder's scaling threat increases significantly with jungle assistance.
