Gameplay Post patch smolder

Is it only me or is smolder even stronger now.
I only played him after the 1st dft patch and I have about 60ish % wr on him and climbed from p4 to p1.
Since I’m a oneshot adc main(draven, mf, cait)
I rarely ever built bruiser on him because I don’t like that class… most of my games were hubris-Er-rfc-ie-ldr and whatever for 6th.
I know that his crit got buffed but i just played 3 games where i was totally melting everyone with that build post 26.11 patch. I still can’t see his winrates on u.gg
is anyone else feeling that he is still super strong(stronger) or I just got paired against dogs 3 times in a row so i solo carried.

Well if you only played crit before (which was kind of bad at the time especially IE) and now it got buffed why would you not think its stronger?

Where did it get any buff?

It went from ie adding like 15% extra damage to q to 25 I think. You would have to go look at patch notes
