Adc SMOLDER Counter Items
We have prepared a list of items and spells that will help counter Adc SMOLDER in a given situation. Buy items wisely, only if it is really necessary for a specific situation!
Armor
Items that reduce Auto Attacks (AA) / Physical Damage.
Plated Steelcaps
Reduces damage from champion attacks +150 Max Health +20 Armor +45 Move Speed
Block: Reduces damage from champion attacks by 10%. 1200
Plated Steelcaps TIPS: These boots provide reliable protection against champions who rely heavily on basic attacks. They increase your Health and Armor, while the passive further reduces damage taken from enemy champion attacks. An excellent choice against marksmen, AD fighters, and other auto-attack-focused champions.
Randuin's Omen
Counters Critical Strike Damage +400 Max Health +75 Armor
Resilience: Critically Struck deal 30% less damage to you.
Countercurrent: Gain 1 stacks of Countercurrent when Critically Struck by physical damage. Each stuck grants 5% Movement Speed and 5% slow resist. Max 4 stacks. 2800
Randuin's Omen TIPS: This item is built to counter crit-heavy builds. It provides a large health pool and armor while reducing damage from critical strikes, making you much tougher in head-on engagements. When you are critically struck, you gain stacks that boost your movement and slow resistance, helping you hold position and control fight spacing. — Perfect for tanks and bruisers who need to stand up to high-crit auto-attackers and survive extended teamfights.
Thornmail
Reflects damage and reduces enemy healing +200 Max Health +75 Armor
Thorns: When struck by an attack, deal 20 + 6% bonus Armor + 1% bonus Health magic damage to the attacker.
Entwine: Apply 50% Grievous Wounds to enemy champions for 3 second(s) when stuck by their attacks or dealing damage to them.
Grievous Wounds reduces the effectiveness of Healing and Regeneration effects. 2700
Thornmail TIPS: This item reflects a portion of incoming physical damage back to attackers as magic damage and applies an effect that reduces enemy healing effectiveness. A strong pick versus teams with heavy auto-attack damage and sustain — ideal for tanks and bruisers who need to absorb focus and cut down opponent healing.
Dead Man's Plate
Increases Movement Speed +350 Max Health +70 Armor +4% Movement Speed
Momentum: Moving builds Momentum, granting up to 40 Move Speed at 100 stacks. Attacking removes all Momentum. Stacks decay when movement is impaired.
Crushing Blow: Attacks deal up to 100 bonus magic damage based on Momentum removed. Melee attacks with max Momentum slows by 75% for 1 second. 2800
Dead Man's Plate TIPS: This item provides a substantial boost to health and armor, and its “Momentum” passive builds movement speed as you move—up to a cap—until you land an attack, which then triggers “Crushing Blow”, dealing bonus magic damage based on the momentum removed and slowing enemies at full stacks. This makes it an excellent choice for tanks and bruisers who need extra mobility to engage quickly and sustain through fights. Tips: ideal for champions who need to close distance and absorb damage; pairs extremely well with Spellblade items (e.g., Divine Sunderer) for additional burst damage on engage.
Frozen Heart
Reduces enemy Attack Speed +80 Armor +400 Max Mana +20 Ability Haste
Winter's Caress: Reduce the Attack Speed of enemy champions within 650 units of you by 25%. 2550
Frozen Heart TIPS: This item combines a large amount of Armor, additional Mana, and Ability Haste, providing strong protection against physical damage. Nearby enemy champions have their Attack Speed reduced, making it especially effective against marksmen and other opponents who rely heavily on frequent basic attacks. An excellent choice for tanks and fighters against attack-focused team compositions.
Cleanse or Block Spells
Items with ability or property to cleanse or block negative spells.
Seeker's Armguard

Stasis (Active): Become invulnerable and untargetable for 2.5 seconds, but unable to move, attack, cast abilities or use items. (120s Cooldown) 1200
Seeker's Armguard TIPS: This item combines Ability Power with extra defense, but its defining feature is the ability to become temporarily invulnerable. Its active effect lets you completely avoid lethal damage, dodge crucial enemy abilities, or buy time for your cooldowns to return. It is an excellent choice for mages and AP assassins who need to survive burst damage and outplay opponents in critical teamfights.
Zhonya's Hourglass
Turn invulnerable +40 Armor +110 Ability Power
Stasis (Active): Become invulnerable and untargetable for 2.5 seconds, but unable to move, attack, cast abilities or use items. (90s Cooldown) 3300
Zhonya's Hourglass TIPS: This item combines high Ability Power with extra armor, while its defining feature is the ability to become completely invulnerable for a short time. Its active effect allows you to survive lethal damage, avoid crucial enemy abilities, or buy time for your cooldowns to recover. It is an excellent choice for mages and AP assassins who need to outlive enemy focus and turn the tide of a teamfight.

Items that can decrease SMOLDER mobility.
Exhaust
Exhausts target enemy champion, reducing their Movement Speed by 35% and their damage dealt by 40% for 2.5 seconds.

Icy: Damaging active abilities and empowered attacks slow enemies below 60% current Health by 30% Movement Speed for 1 second. 3100
Serylda’s Grudge TIPS: This item significantly increases physical damage through percentage Armor Penetration while allowing you to use abilities more frequently. Damaging wounded enemies with active abilities or empowered attacks also slows them, making it easier to chase or keep targets at a distance. An excellent choice for AD champions who rely on abilities and need effective Armor Penetration combined with additional control.
Rylai's Crystal Scepter
Abilities apply slows +350 Max Health +65 Ability Power
Icy: Damaging abilities and empowered attacks slow enemies by 30% for 0.75 second. 2700
Rylai's Crystal Scepter TIPS: This item enhances your crowd control by causing your abilities and empowered attacks to slow enemies with every hit. The bonus health improves your durability, while the consistent slow makes it much easier to land follow-up abilities, chase fleeing targets, and support your teammates. It is an excellent choice for damage-over-time mages and champions who rely on keeping enemies within the range of their abilities.
Iceborn Gauntlet
Attacks create a slowing field +300 Max Health +50 Armor +250 Max Mana +30 Ability Haste
Spellblade: Using an ability causes your next attack within 10 seconds to deal bonus physical damage equal to (100% base AD + 25% Bonus Armor ) in an area and creates an icy field for 2 seconds that slows by 30%. Armor increases the size of the icy field. (1.5s Cooldown)
Damage is reduced vs structures. 3000
Iceborn Gauntlet TIPS: This item greatly boosts your health, armor, mana, and ability haste, making you much tankier. After casting an ability, your next attack in an area deals bonus physical damage and creates an icy field that slows enemies inside by 30%. The field’s size scales with your armor. This makes the item a great choice for champions who want to combine high survivability with crowd control and extra AOE damage.
Stridebreaker
Slows enemies nearby after a short dash +400 Max Health +40 Attack Damage +25% Attack Speed
Breaking Shockwave (Active): Activate to dash a short distance, dealing 100% AD as Physical Damage to nearby enemies and slowing them by 40% for 3s (25s cooldown)
Stride (Passive): Gain 20 Movement Speed for 2 second(s) when you deal physical damage. 3100
Stridebreaker TIPS: This item combines mobility, damage, and crowd control, making it easier to stick to your targets. Its active lets you dash a short distance, damage nearby enemies, and heavily slow them, while the passive grants bonus movement speed whenever you deal physical damage. It is an excellent choice for fighters and bruisers who want to engage quickly, chase down opponents, and keep enemies within melee range.
