Smolder's biggest weakness is baked right into his strength: he is a stacking champion who is genuinely weak until his Dragon Practice passive matures. For the first stretch of the game he is a squishy marksman with thin damage, and his only escape is the small hop from his E, which clears walls but does not save him from a committed dive. He has no hard crowd control either, just the slow on his W and his ultimate, so he cannot peel for himself when someone gets on top of him. The way to beat Smolder is to attack that early window: deny his farm, bully him off the wave so his stacks never ramp, and all in him before his Q evolves. Lanes that out range his early poke, out trade him in the first few levels, or simply push him under tower and starve his stacks make his life miserable. When you pick Smolder, you are betting you survive long enough to scale, so respect anyone who can punish the squishy little dragon before he grows up.
