How are champion matchup win rates calculated?

Win rates are calculated from thousands of ranked games in Emerald+ elo on the current patch. Data is sourced from OP.GG and updated regularly.

What does a 55% win rate matchup mean?

A 55% win rate means Champion 1 wins 55 out of every 100 games against Champion 2 in ranked. Anything above 52% is considered a favorable matchup.

Do matchup win rates change every patch?

Yes. Champion buffs, nerfs, item changes, and meta shifts can all affect matchup win rates. Our data updates with each new patch.

Should I always pick the counter champion?

Not necessarily. Comfort and experience on a champion often matter more than counter-picking, especially below Diamond. A 2-3% win rate difference is easily overcome by champion mastery.

What rank is the matchup data from?

All matchup data is sourced from Emerald+ ranked games to ensure the data reflects skilled play. Lower elo matchups can differ significantly.

How to Play This Matchup

Early Aggression

Sett needs to punish Smolder before they scale. Zone them off CS levels 1-5 and look for solo kills before first back. If Smolder reaches 2 items even, you're in trouble.

Mixed Resistances

Sett deals AD damage while Smolder deals Mixed. Build resistances accordingly Ã¢â‚¬â€ don't stack the wrong type.

Close the Gap

Smolder will poke you down. You need to find an angle to all-in. Use bushes, minion waves, and flash aggressively. One good engage wins the lane.

Range Advantage

Smolder has range advantage. Sett should look for short trades when Smolder uses abilities on the wave. Freeze near your tower and wait for jungle help or an all-in window.

Exploit Sett's Weakness

Sett's main weakness: Kiting, ranged poke, dodging W sweet spot. Play around this to maximize your advantage.
