Questions and answers

Does Smolder counter Tristana?

Does Tristana counter Smolder?

Yes, as an ADC on patch 26.21: Smolder is among the opponents it loses to most, with at least 8 games in the matchup and a win rate below 50% after it is pulled toward 50%, in the games of LazyElo players at their own elo.

How many games are behind Smolder vs Tristana?

5,561 ranked games on patch 26.21 in total; as an ADC Smolder has 316 of them and Tristana 574. A matchup is only called a counter from 8 games between the two, and the data keeps the lists, not the count per pair.

Where is the win rate of Smolder vs Tristana?

Not on this page, on purpose. The shared data behind the site holds each champion's own tier, win rate and games per lane and the list of opponents it does worst against, not the win rate of every pair. Showing a number the data does not hold would be a guess, so the page shows which side the matchup falls on and both champions' own lane numbers instead.

Play Smolder vs Tristana with a plan you wrote yourself

In champ select LazyElo weighs this matchup against your own record on each champion in your pool and says why it suggests a pick. Once it knows your lane opponent it asks for your plan, then shows your notes and your record. You still pick and lock yourself.
