For those who didn't know, you can check if Warwick used his W to track you or if its his passive. If its his W the debuff on your screen ticks down but if its his passive it doesn't.
Or also depending if you are lower than 50% hp. Or do you mean if are far away from him? 😮
I mean, if you're under half hp his passive tracks you and if you're over it has to be his W, you don't need to check the debuff.
@@Sinzari if he activated the W , it marks you and you’re under half HP, you can still check if W is active through this
@@Sinzari active W gives Warwick the passive component no matter the hp (move/atk speed) and buff it to 250% of it's value, so it's valuable to know if it's on/off/onCD/offCD.
Is it not obvious because you'll be below 50% hp?
I just had an 80 minute game as Smolder yesterday. One on our team rage quit. Two on enemy team rage quit. 4v3, and one of them was also Smolder. By the end, each of us executed at around 20% max HP (around 800 stacks)
Does it work with elder? Like let’s say you had elder and 800 stacks, would it execute at 40% instead of 20%?
Probably doesn't stack. I think the one with the highest threshold activates first.@@youtubealt243
@@youtubealt243 it doesnt stack, similar to The Collector, it will just execute at the higher value, if both are 20% then it will just execute at 20%
@@mop-kun2381asol e execute stacks with eldar
@@ameliezhou8887 We did. Reason it took so long is because we were losing the whole game lol
“Did Zwag Xerath get the first 6 CS?”
Yes, he got all 6!!
Win Streak: 2
He even got the next 6, I'd give him a double her3 fam
Kyle what would the world do without you. Thank you for always being in every video without fail.
Scrolled down specifically to see if you still do this. Respect the dedication

Rapid fire cannon actually extends the range of your Q, so this build was cooking especially with the lethality slow item
Now we just need the runaans with tiamat and zwag has done all the videos with smolder
So Illaoi R already spawns tentacles that aren't attached to walls so I can't see why they wouldn't be able to adapt that to let her tentacles spawn in lanes without nearby walls since most of the lanes got a lot wider
They could very well have her abilities spawn tentacles Yorick style. After all, a big part of her harassing power was using E in-between two tentacles, but now you can't cause one or even both of them don't reach far enough. It's kinda funny
@@beziik2357 the main issue with spawning Yorick style is his spawn on minion deaths and she has more AOE vs him so she can wipe out the casters with Q for like an instant tentacle. Zyra’s passive seeds would be more balanced
Cait: Uses R
Zwag: Best I can do is flash Q
lol still find it funny “he calls his mom” hahah love this champ
@4:40 kinda easy fix to illaoi is to make her tentacles spawn not at the wall only but on the ground too (like when u ulti) they still can only spawn in a fixed distance from each othe.
They really have to do something with his e either on-hit triggering or attack speed after landing just anything
if they buffed the range of the E shots it would probably make it feel better, also if they front load the damage like Ahri W
I dont think they have to lol, its meant to be a movement ability
@@RomGomLP the problem is that its a bad movement ability in terms of duration and since it doesnt have a Mini dash before flight its worse then others like corki w schmolder is already pretty 1 Button like with his q would Just love the Other spells to be usefull and fun to use aswell even if it Comes at the Cost of a worse q.
1 Button delete Champs got removed for a reason and they gotta tweek it no matter what ^^
@@RomGomLP spells can fulfil dual purposes, look at Ahri W when they added the MS boost it became a defensive tool for juking enemy skill shots easier or Pyke R: some Pyke mains late game use it as a positioning tool since it blinks him to the X if it hits an enemy champ so he can land a clutch E in a fight. Smolder E seems to me to be a kiting/escape and chase tool since it gives 100% MS, lets u hop walls and gives u auto targeting shots. Akshan E is pretty similar in purpose to Smolder E tbh since they both give alternate movement methods while auto targeting enemies that are close to u while dashing
@@Crescendobro but akshan E procs onhits like PTA and also resets after takedowns. I really thought smolders would work similar since then you could use it to engage with the lockon hits for PTA then use other abilities
I think that they should make illaoi that the far she is from the wall bigger/longer the tentacle will be. This way she will have short and long tentacle to make it balanced but can still be effective in toplane
Ive been sayin this forever, but they need to just make it where they can spawn in the middle of the lane. just like how they do with her ult. but they are actually killable.
better yet just leave her useless and toplaners everywhere will cheer
Camp a lane as shaco
Love ya 😘
I must confess that I am exited for SMoled. He is cute, voicelines that make me smile and gameplaywise he seems fear?
I mean maybe his number are too high, but after balancing him a bit, i think he is fine. I see nothing frustrating in his Kit... The execute seems to be OK, and the E is not a Fizz E. I can't belive it isn't like Fizz E, because so it is fair.
I think his numbers seem high because, well, offense is about all he's got.
He starts off pretty weakish, and his passive rewards you for farming well.
If you can't last hit, Smolder is useless to you, because he doesn't have any utility, defenses, and barely has short-term mobility or cc for that matter.
He's all damage, and pretty straightforward as Dragons be, but I wouldn't mind if he got toned down -just- a bit.
He might be trash
what high numbers, for a very fed smolder he did not seem to be doing a lot of dmg, even more so in this meta where burst is king, he does not have the dps of a pure ad carry and he does not have the burst of a midlaner , his range his pretty bad too, honestly from what I have seen outside of his ult he seem pretty meh. Ap assassin are broken right now too and there is no way smolder has a good matchup against akali,fizz and diana
Day 211 asking for a gnar video
I support you on the way❤
I second this
😂😂you are motivated
NOO.
MORE SMOLDER.
NOW.
Come on zwag
Seeing turret in the actual middle of a lane is so cursed.
30:00 that was a pretty good combo for blind pick.
i had one where i played briar ADC with a bard, a i was at 300 hp, so i charge e to stay alive and knock yas into a wall, a enemy kayn comes flying over that same wall, bard ults me, so my e goes off while in bard ult stuns them both, my gnar flys in while they're stunned and extends it by ulting them into the same wall and i get a double kill and live it was insane lmfaooo
bruiser Jungle Smolder would be neat. The ganks would be quite cool. First clear in the jungle would probably be hell.
You can probably get a bunch of stacks on the grublings if you go help your jungler on the grubs!
12 of them spawn every few seconds so if you get a good Q you could get 30-40 stacks while helping
I don't think this works, because Nasus cannot stack off them, however Sion can, so it does need testing to verify. I assume he is more like nasus, since it's spell stacking as opposed to passive stacking, so keep your hopes moderated.
Tried this recently and I recall seeing each give me 0.25 stacks each
I was surprised when he didn't do it cause of that
I mean PekinWolf did it in his video of Smolder and it helped a lot as even the mini's work for it
@@Wolfboy607 Does Overgrowth stack on them?
Edit. It does every little grublings count as 1...
still can't get over the ssj3 theme in almost every single video of Zwag.
Man smolder is neat. Its always nice to see infinitely scaling champs. I feel like he needs a bit of a tuneup later on.
Also, i wanna see a syndra video one of these days please.
your videos have a chokehold on my youtube auto play. No matter what im watching 2 or 3 vids into auto play your stuff comes up. Congrats.
How did you add the “+1 stack” visual after killing minions?
27:49 i had a similar bug the other day where my Garen R just decided to do zero damage 🙄
i want more champ lore related to bard, smolder, a sol, and gragas
Listening to zwag’s ideas make me glad he isnt some sort of rioter 💀
“Put a wall in the middle of toplane”
“Let illaoi spawn tentacles with no walls”
“Give smolder immunity from spells when flying”
Hey Zwag. How do you get the notifcation of +1 Stack when lasthitting with ur q? I looked through the settings and cant find it?!
Regarding Illaoi, they buffed her mana to compensate for more Qs to push wave past middle. It doesn't affect seasoned illaoi players because if we fight af the center even before this season it's not ideal. Push all the way up or freeze and distance aren't an issue. Plus, next patch, I think they are increasing tentacle slam reach to help further
How do I get the "+ Stack" to display if I kill a minion e,t,c? Can't find anything in the options.
They are gonna give Illaoi's tentacles 125 range so they can attack from the walls, but that feels like it's gonna be busted in jungle fights
Smolder's cooldowns are pretty large for a stacking/spamming character, with the exception of Q. I think that's the main thing that's going to prevent lethality/AP builds from being effective. That and he just doesn't stack very fast compared to someone like Veigar or Nasus or even Asol. His scalings aren't crazy either even with the added damage from his passive and his Q's range is low enough that he needs to get into danger every time he wants to poke with something other than his W (and his E has such a long cooldown that he can only escape every 2nd attempt or so.)
Overall, they really did design him in such a way that he kind of feels like an Ezreal spam champ or Kogmaw cheese but just doesn't have the ability to really pull it off.
Also, most games are going to end before he even gets to use the fun part of his kit.
Don't forget that Smolder gets stacks for just simply hitting enemy champs with his abilities.
The Q works as an Annie Q, You get your mana back. That's really cool
I watched all your smolder videos multiple times, you were one of the first tank smolder. I have been looking at everything. He gains damage from every stat but health. One item first that. He stacks, and with grasp He tech, double stacks dmg with the hp. His Q applys all on hit and ability style effects. The three main weapons he needs, in my opinion. Titanic, BoTrK, mask, stacks botrk, his natural burn, the mask...%hp damage, then he stacks hand dmg...oh I forgot it has sustained because of the life steal, everything after that is situational based. Ice rod, all slow cc on all abilities
Still suprised I haven't seen a single smolder with manamune, if it fits ezreal it surely fits him
Naming the dragon smolder was amazingly creative.... How did they come up with that??
screw creativity when you could just have a really cool name. smolder is cool
Zwag be checking if his e hits turrets each game.
This is actually hilarious. I was in Nashville.. the year there was a tornado i think 2020?
Every woman there would ask my friend (older gentleman in his 60s) how old i was and if i was seeing anyone but would never speak to me directly.
The gun club, bars, steakhouse, grocery stores
(Im 31 now but am always told I look around 22)
Women pretend to have so much confidence but the truth is they need a man to engage because theyre deathly afraid of rejection or acknowledging the man is the prize.
when Illaoi ults it doesn't care about map terrain it will just spawn tentacles within a radius of her.
Very occasionally they spawn outside of range of the targets that spawned them. It's pretty rare, but has happened. I guess it's still a better system than now, tho.
Wanna a fix for Illaoi? Play her support! Here's a silly build: Bloodsong, Dead Man's, Hullbreaker, Sterak's, Sundered Sky and Boots (yeah, it plays around her high Base AD, the highest in the game not counting Mega Gnar).
Collector is terrible on him cause the 5% execute is completely worthless once you have the burn execute.
Edit: nvm, I see.
illaoi being bad might be the most fun change possible
It really feels like the game is in fast pace but it is actually 35 minutes
The playlist you use for these videos
I need it
Thank you for showcasing lethality Smolder, Mr. Zwag. Im actually a bit dissapointed of the W. It seemed so promising on paper, but i guess it was designed mostly for slowing and as a tool of disengagement.
Im looking forward to Tanksmolder. Bye!
I reckon it'd been cool if riot made the champ age as the game progresses.
He starts of like a tiny little dragon then scales into elder drake late game lol
Thanks for the great vid Zwag!
Sorry for my english. how do you get the “stacks” to appear please ?
Alright, now that talk about the Illaoi made me think of my Poppy, Camille, Gnar (wich I don't really play) and lastly… poor Mordekaiser having less places where walls limit his ult space to land more skills
They might just make illaois tentacles have more range and make them visually bigger
As for the “I wish you could fly over abilities” that’s one thing smite does better. Because you can jump over abilities and dodge them that way (note that dashes do not count as leaps)
I think you’ll find that all the dragons scale :)
I think for fixing Illaoi they should add the same mechanic that fiddlesticks has with boa wards, like they are his clones, in her case, It would be her tentacles.
Ya gotta farm those early grubbies when playing smolder. Not killing the big ones, but alll the little ones
I’m loving the Smolder videos and Smolder as a champion! I think you should try maxing E second, so you have more kiting capabilities by reducing the cooldown, and I don’t think W is so important for his kit. Try it if you want!
You get 2 stacks for cannons dog
Great videos man 💯
Smolder on National Appreciate A Dragon Day too!
Bro could've bought sundered sky and heal with that from Q
"Lethality seems decent"
*One shots whole team from full health with one button.*
Crit is better i think
Half of his skills bennefits from crit
And his autos will be better too
Dude I'm honestly surprised they didn't make smolder invulnerable while in e
how do you show stack on hit ? i turned on everything but no luck
Last time i was this early we still had mythics
You did indeed get 2 stacks for killing the Lux with Q. You last hit her with Q and went from 96 - 98
Zwag bro, pls use you R in conjunction with your ult to either extend the range and gap close to use your other abilities or run away from a fight. Really busted when you learn to do it
I don't think collector is viable for him because you just dismiss it's "under 4% execute", collector having higher cap for execute at under 5%, so I would rather do another item to benefit both from item's passive and molder's execute under 4%. 1% difference is not that much of a drawback anyway.
EDIT: Nvm, just saw execute is only on Q but still you can hit Q pretty easy if you have it stacked up.
Surprised Smolder’s mom is allowed into the rift
I’m interested to see how a Tank Smolder would fare with Radiant Virtue for big heals with R
I feel like Smolder's passive is a bit dull, I think it should also give your other abilities effects as well as just his Q, like more duration on his E flight, greater radius for W, etc.
Wow, your team was playing really good, jungler helping lanes, doing objectives.. playing the game :D Whenever I play, it's 20 games of afk or solo farming players that complain. I don't know if I want to play this game anymore, 14 seasons later, I'm just tired) But I'll watch)
5:52 Dynamically lengthened tentacles depending on map [X,Y] coordinate spawn location @Zwag
Man i LOVE your background song!
what i think about the poor illaoi, is that they should make her passive spawn with skill landed instead of spawning at walls, like, one enemy get hit with Q, 1 spawn on their back, get hit with E, one spawn at the soul not the champion, w makes them last longer and attack faster each cast of it
Second skin of the day: Default Smolder.
Tbh, if the AOE would apply on hit effects it would be a gankplank without the need for barrels... That would be OP to no end XD
When you have your AOE Q. And void grubs are up… 🧐 💡 you could aoe farm all the mini grubs and let them spawn over and over
Is it just me or does Smolder E make the Fizz "Shark!" sound every time?
Say I think exchanging the collector for something else after Q get the execute factor would be better for this item build... Love thy videos, Zwaggy 😊
illaoi ult spawns tentacles away from walls.
Hey zwag love your Videos brotha keep going 🎊
doesnt he already have collector built in? doesnt the execute passive get wasted? wouldnt other lethality items be better?
Ah so Smolder has a family guy reference.
Mom mom mom....😂
It hurts to see zwag building an execute item on a champ that has already an execute
For your ask: 11:00 . yes, you did. thats so good
yayyyy more smolder content!!
27:48 riot how? basic attack + Q is 0 dmg?
Hear me out: Ahri. Bork, Malignance, Rylai's, Iceborn, Riftmaker or Liandry's. Burns and slows.
Watch Illaoi just get her tentacles anywhere on the ground in an area around her instead of just walls, like how zyra passively puts buds down.
A really cool setup, and I really liked the champion. By the way, you can also play with it on our platform and take on some cool challenges for League of Legends 👍
That's why I decided to start main top again no more support with this champ in the botlane
"Lethality is viable" quite the paradox innit
i love the ssj3 theme
Hi zwag, can you make a lucian video? Love your videos❤
Bro he is pretty similar to corki
KING KONG (tank WuKong)
Please please make it happen 🙏🏼
11:02 the stack text only counts q stacks, stacks obtained from hitting champions aren't counted
Remplace one lethality item to rapide fire canon will help a lot to poke at decent range no ?
Cozy video man
Wonder if you could go full move speed, ghost yomous crit and the rest cdr and just q people a ton
I think his ult gonna be use like Rumble's ult, use it first to burn some hp and controlling the enemy's path
@27:50 your ability did not land but the auto followed the ez through his arcane shift, which did minimal damage
Pretty sure Illaoi is better Mid at the moment because the of the distance between mid walls and tentacles
?
Illaoi is still super strong. Tentacles schmentacles. She spawns them like crazy
Ap irelia with the new ap items, since assasins are busted that should be fun to pop off in.
