Who Wins
- You win level 2 with W attach giving Caitlyn adaptive force for stronger trades, but lose level 6 when Sona gets R engage and Smolder gains execute potential.
- The matchup shifts heavily against you once Smolder reaches meaningful stack numbers.
Synergy & Trading
- Attach to Caitlyn for W stats, use Q for slow/poke when she goes for headshot trades, then immediately W back for safety.
- Coordinate your Q angles with her positioning to maximize poke while staying untargetable during enemy retaliation.
Wave Control/Roaming
- Don't roam in this matchup - Caitlyn needs your W stats and Q poke to maintain pressure against scaling Smolder.
- Your presence is crucial for winning the early game before Smolder becomes too strong to handle.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't detach unnecessarily or you'll get caught by Sona's Q-auto or Smolder's Q poke chains.
- Avoid using E heal too early in trades - save it for when Caitlyn actually needs the sustain to stay in lane.
