Riot Games has just shared exciting news about what's coming to League of Legends in 2024. Season 2 of Arcane is set to premiere on Netflix in November, and alongside it, players can look forward to new champions on Summoner’s Rift, the return of Arena, a new game mode, and various skin and champion overhauls throughout the year. The first champion making an appearance is Smolder, the Fiery Fledgling, a baby dragon from Camavor, the same region as Viego, Hecarim, and Kalista. Despite being small, Smolder has impactful abilities:
- Passive - Dragon Practice: Hitting champions with Abilities and killing enemies with Super Scorcher Breath grants Smolder a stack of Dragon Practice. Stacks increase the damage of Smolder’s basic Abilities.
- Q - Super Scorcher Breath: Smolder belches flame at his enemies. This Ability evolves with stacks, gaining the following:
- 25: Damages all enemies surrounding the target.
- 125: Sends explosions behind the target that deal 75% of this spell’s damage.
- 225: Burns the target dealing max Health true damage over 3 seconds. Enemy champions that drop below a total health threshold while burning are killed instantly.
- W - Achooo!: Smolder lets out an adorable flaming sneeze, damaging and slowing enemies hit. Hitting champions causes an additional explosion.
- E - Flap, Flap, Flap: Smolder takes flight, gaining Move Speed and ignoring terrain for 1.25 seconds. While flying, Smolder attacks the lowest health enemy.
- R - MMOOOMMMM!: Smolder’s mom breathes fire from above, dealing extra damage and slowing enemies in the center of her fire. Smolder’s mom also heals her son if she hits him.
