Abilities
Draft off any champion within 225 units to gain 25% Move Speed for 2 seconds. This has a 10s per-target cooldown. Use this in teamfights by weaving through enemies and allies to maintain a constant speed boost.
The core of your kit. Toggle this to leave a trail that deals damage over time. You don't need it on 100% of the time; puffing the smoke once every 2 seconds is enough to keep the debuff active on minions or champions.
Throws a zone that slows and Grounds enemies. 'Grounded' means they cannot use Flashes, dashes, or blastscones. Drop this behind an enemy to prevent their escape or directly under a diver to stop their combo.
Flings an enemy behind you. This is your primary peel and engage tool. If you fling someone into your zone, they are rooted. Use this to peel threats off your ADC or to toss a priority target into your team.
Gains massive Armor, MR, AP, Move Speed, and Health/Mana regeneration for 25 seconds. Additionally, will apply 40% Grievous Wounds. Pop this the moment a fight starts, not when you're low health.
Teamfight Role
Disruptive Frontliner
Your job is to run through the enemy team with active, spreading poison and Grievous Wounds. Use to zone out backline carries and to peel for your own carries or catch someone out of position.
If your ADC is extremely fed, stay on top of them and use exclusively to fling away anyone who tries to dive them.
Combos
The Goo Flip
behind enemy -> enemy into the zone
Your most potent CC. By landing the fling into the adhesive, the target is rooted. This is essential for locking down mobile targets who would otherwise dash away.
The Sky Attack
enemy -> Right-click enemy while they are in mid-air
Singed can buffer an auto-attack during the animation. This adds significant burst damage to your trade that the enemy cannot avoid.
The All-In Engage
-> Ghost -> -> ->
Pop your steroids first. Use the speed to close the gap, ground them with so they can't Flash, and fling them back into your poison trail.
Passive Weaving
off ally -> off enemy ->
Use your teammates as speed boosters. Pass an ally to get the proc, use that speed to reach the enemy, proc again off them, then use the final burst to get behind them for a perfect .
Power Spikes
| Spike | Why |
|---|---|
| Level 2 | You have access to the and combo. If an enemy stands near your tower, you can Fling them into tower range for an early kill. |
| Level 6 | gives you a massive stat edge. You can now survive dives or proxy two waves deep with much less risk. |
| Level 9 | is usually maxed here, allowing you to clear an entire minion wave in seconds, enabling permanent priority. |
| Level 11 | Rank 2 increases the stat buffs significantly, making you a primary threat in mid-game teamfights. |
| Level 16 | Rank 3 provides nearly 100 of every combat stat. You become a raid boss that can run through entire teams. |
Tips & Tricks
- •Toggle on and off. The poison lasts for 2 seconds on the ground and the debuff lasts another 2 seconds on the enemy; keeping it on 100% of the time just wastes mana.
- •You can cast mid-air during the animation if your timing is perfect, though it is much easier to place the goo first.
- •When proxying, always watch the mid-laner. If they disappear from the map, they are likely coming for you.
- • grants mana regeneration; use it early in a long fight to sustain your usage.
- •You can use to fling enemies over thin walls if you position yourself with your back to the wall.
- •While is active, your poison applies Grievous Wounds—you don't need to buy Bramble Vest or Oblivion Orb if you have your ultimate up.
Common Mistakes
- ✕Chasing kills too far→You lose your own wave pressure and end up dying for nothing. Singed wins by being chased, not by chasing.
- ✕Leaving on while auto-attacking a tower→You will draw tower aggro the moment the poison touches an enemy champion, even if they are far away.
- ✕Flinging enemies to safety→Using without thinking can accidentally help an enemy escape by tossing them further toward their own tower.
- ✕Ignoring the 'Sky Attack'→You lose roughly 60-150 damage per trade, which is the difference between a kill and an enemy escaping with 10 HP.
- ✕Proxying without vision→You give away free gold to the enemy jungler. Always have a Ward in the enemy jungle before crossing the T2 tower.
