Why High-Elo Players Smurf with Singed
Rule #1 of League of Legends: Don't Chase Singed. Low elo players ALWAYS chase Singed. They see a low HP poison man running away and their brains shut off—they MUST kill him. A smurf exploits this basic instinct by baiting enemies into long chases through the jungle, where they slowly die to poison while missing multiple waves of minions and XP. Meanwhile, your team gets to play a 4v3 or 4v4 because two enemies are so tilted trying to catch you that they forget objectives exist. The chaos you create is worth more than any traditional lane victory.
The Level 1 Cheese
First Blood Strategy
Start Q (Poison Trail). Before minions spawn, run between the enemy's Tier 1 and Tier 2 towers to intercept the first wave. Proxy farm all three caster minions and potentially the melee ones too. If the enemy top laner comes to stop you, either kill them (if they're low) or execute to the tower (dying to tower gives no kill gold). Either way, you've made them miss the entire first wave while you TP back to lane with 300-400 gold advantage. This is called 'super proxy' and it completely breaks the early game mental of enemy top laners.
The 'Pay-to-Win' Skin Advantage
'Beekeeper Singed' is hilarious and has great sounds. 'Surfer Singed' is a classic flex (holding a surfboard). 'Resistance Singed' is clean. 'Snow Day' snow effects are subtle.
When They Ban Singed
Backup Pick: If Singed is banned,
Sion for the proxy lifestyle.
Dr. Mundo for the 'run where I please' style.
Lillia for the 'run fast and dot them' style.
Rune Setup
Best Runes: Conqueror (Fighting) or Phase Rush (Running). Nimbus Cloak and Celerity are mandatory. Secondary Resolve (Unflinching) or Inspiration (Futures Market/Time Warp Tonic).
Skill Priority
Order:
Q → E → WMax Q for damage. Max E second for the % HP damage. W last. R whenever available.
Mastering Singed's Kit
Poison Trail. Toggles poison cloud behind you. Deals damage over time. Don't turn it off in fights!
Mega Adhesive. Throws glue that slows and grounds (no dash/flash). Flinging (E) into glue roots the target.
Fling. Throws enemy over your shoulder. Deals % Max HP damage. Use to peel or engage.
Insanity Potion. Grants AP, Armor, MR, Move Speed, HP Regen, Mana Regen. Lasts 25s. Pop it early!
Matchup Tips
Impossible. She out-runs you with W and shreds you. Proxy only.
Hard. If he hooks you, you die. Fling him away immediately. Phase Rush is key.
Easy. Fling him when he uses Counterstrike. Run away. Poison kills him.
The Ego Check
WARNING: Stop mindlessly flinging people! Ideally, you want to Fling (E) enemies INTO your Mega Adhesive (W) to root them in place, not fling them away towards safety. The combo is: W (place glue) > run past them > E (fling them into the glue) > they're rooted while dying to poison. Just pressing E whenever you're near someone usually saves their life and wastes your cooldown. Also, don't proxy if you're feeding kills—proxying is about generating pressure and wasting enemy time, not about dying over and over. If you've died twice proxying, stop for 5 minutes, farm lanes normally, then reassess.
When to Queue Dodge
Dodge Kayle or Vayne. They outscale you and can kill you while you run. Also Nasus—he withers you and stacks off you.
Teamfight Role
In teamfights, you are a disruptor. Ghost + R + Chemtank (if built) and run straight at their carry. Fling them back into your team. Spread poison everywhere. You are fast and tanky—make them focus you while they die to your trail.
The 'Disrespect' Build
Full AP Singed. Liandry's -> Rylai's -> Demonic Embrace. You are squishy but your poison melts teams. If they ignore you, they die. If they chase you, they die faster.
Power Windows
Level 6. Insane regen and stats. Rylai's purchase is your biggest spike—perma slow is unbeatable.
Tilt Factor
Bind laugh to a key and spam it while running. Type 'Why are you running?' when you chase them. Proxying alone tilts them.
