Learn how to play with Mel with these essential tips.
Tags:
All
Follow up immediately when Mel lands her E on an enemy — the root and its expanding slow field give you a long window to land your own crowd control or all-in.
Lane Phase Skirmish
Mel's W is her only way to survive burst and comes back slowly — once it's down, be ready to peel or disengage since she has no other escape tool.
Team Fight Skirmish
Mel has no dash or blink of her own — play closer to her than you would a mobile ADC, since hard engage that reaches her before she can react is what actually kills her.
Lane Phase
Focus the same target Mel is hitting — the glowing mark over an enemy's head shows how close they are to being executed by her stored passive damage.
Basic Team Fight Skirmish
Mel's ultimate can finish any enemy carrying her passive stacks anywhere on the map, even without vision — call it out if a low-health enemy escapes a fight you were in.
Late Game Team Fight
Mel's W destroys and fires back enemy champion projectiles that hit her barrier — bait out a key poke or engage tool before your duo commits to a trade.
Advanced Team Fight Skirmish
Mel's early trades get noticeably stronger once she has points in both her Q and E around level 3-4 — look for all-in opportunities in lane at this timing.
